PERFORMANCE SERIES II – 2002 Potlatch: Sharing a Lifetime of Experience, Stories and Treasures From Our Tribe
During the Intergeneration Performance Series II, performers gave gifts to the audience from a treasure chest of "Stories Spirals" told by lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people. Hidden behind the facade and stereotypes of age, this feast of true stories was shared in honor of those in attendance. Through song and dance and storytelling our personal experiences with aging and ageism were revealed, as lived within the queer community. Themes of intergeneration mentoring, the passing on of queer culture from one generation to the next, and the challenges that face both young and old alike were woven into a performance that used multimedia and live performances as the basis for the feast.
