About the event: 

A performance event to reveal poetic bodies and hot activism, Sins 

Invalid invites a re/view of embodiment, with performers and video 

artists speaking their minds and stripping taboos off of sexuality and 

disability.

Sins Invalid is a night of resistance to invisibility, celebrating the

power of the disabled body as beautiful.

We know that the world of embodied and enforced norms oppresses all of 

us, regardless of where we identify on the spectrum of sexuality, gender

 or ability. The event is a gift for participants and audience alike,

 encouraging a healing for all who challenge themselves honestly when

 unearthing sexual expression.

Sins Invalid is directed by people with disabilities; the majority of 

the artists identify as [w/DisAbilities]; all of the artists will 

address disability and embodiment and/or sexuality.

$10-$20 Sliding scale (no one turned away for lack of funds)

Wheelchair accessible

Funded in part by Theater Bay Area
