Thesis on Joan

#7 Indigiqueering with Ty Defoe


Listen Later

Tune in this week with Meghan and Harrow as they talk with interdisciplinary artist Ty Defoe about breaking out of binaries as a two-spirit Indigiqueer person and finding balance between safe and brave space in theatre. Ty also speaks on being “genre fluid,” building just systems to create justice on stage with projects like Broadway’s Straight White Men, and imagining queerness seven generations from now.
