The News April 2013 April 2, 2013

The News is the new place to see fresh, queer performance by Bay Area artists. On the first Tuesday of each month The News will spotlight performance pieces, experiments, and works in progress by pre-selected solo artists, groups, or troupes. An informal session for artist-led critical feedback follows the performances.

Bernadette Bohan of The Box Factory— an art, music and culture space in the Mission district of San Francisco— curates, performs and guest-hosts for The News in April. In celebration of the 5 year anniversary of The Box Factory, Bohan showcases long-time The Box Factory favorites Joe Conscious, Stephen Eagle Funk, Spencer Peterson, Rheal Tea and Yosefine Tinkelman (Opal Eye).

Bohan is the fourth of five hosting guest curators enlisted by the evening’s creator Kolmel WithLove to bring fresh performances and curatorial flare to The News in the coming months. Future hosting guest curators include Peter Max Lawrence with Philip Huang on Tuesday, June 4, 2013.
