Spiegeltent Presents
Adrienne Truscott and Le Gateau Chocolat
8:00 pm – 9:00 pm EDT/GMT-4
Le Gateau Chocolat is a man. Adrienne Truscott is a woman. Le Gateau Chocolat is a gay, black, English-Nigerian man and drag artiste. Adrienne Truscott is a cis white feminist American female performance artist. Le Gateau Chocolat is a multi-award-winning, plus-sized, bearded, drag diva feminist. Adrienne Truscott is a multi-award-winning comedian and provocateur who enjoys chocolate cake, up to a point. They are dear friends, and here, as in everyday life, they perform a multiplicity of identities: perceived, lived, and projected. As their comical banter turns personal, political debates erupt, and grey areas (and arias) are exposed. Between musical numbers that span Madame Butterfly and Annie, they spring rhetorical traps designed to catch any who overstep the blurred lines of the politically correct and interrogate the boundaries of allyship.
