Pedra performs as Doña Pepa to reimagine the crucifixion as a queer performance ritual. Pablo draws on their experience in Catholic school and seminary, while mining the theatricality of drag, burlesque, and Catholic mass, to crucify Doña Pepa for her piggy sins to ultimately be pardoned in this high-contrast spectacle. The powerful ensemble of six performers exorcises repression in a search of full individual self-expression.

Commissioned and premiered by Red Eye Theater's New Works 4 Weeks at the Tek Box (June 2019).
