B.A.N.G.S. is a kaleidoscopic pageant of status, attention, categorization, and femininity. In its first evening-length work, LMnO3 shape-shift in style and identity donning everything from velvet evening wear, to ripstop jumpsuits, to snack-filled purses, to sensible bathing suits as the dancers explore what they are—and aren’t— qualified to do.

This program is supported by the
Gay and Lesbian Equity (GALE) Fund
of The Cape Cod Foundation.
