Thank you to everyone who joined us for our February run of Rainbow Exodus! Created and performed by Company Member Karol Matuszak, and directed and designed by Co-Artistic Director Travis Coe. This performance was created in response to the “LGBT-free zones” that were appearing across municipalities and regions of Poland—public declarations that LGBTQ+ people were unwelcome. From this charged landscape emerges one man’s journey to break free from the confines of his conservative upbringing, setting out from his homeland in search of a place where he can live openly and wholly, without hiding.
This run brought together both new and familiar faces, creating space to connect, listen, and reflect on a powerful story of love, freedom, and sacrifice. We want to extend our sincere thanks to Jim Nicola, Nicky Paraiso, Siddhartha Shah, and Harold Steward for sharing their insights and facilitating such thoughtful and engaging conversations after the performance.
