About this show
Queer Dance Freakout is an interactive choose-your-own-adventure-spectacle, inspired by the Neo-Futurists’ Infinite Wrench. Celebrating it's 3rd season in Chicago, GFP is composed of queer, trans and/or nonbinary artists & storytellers, who perform an array of devised performance art pieces. Queer Dance Freakout aims to have audiences booty shaking, grooving and connecting with the larger queer community.
Each of the original pieces are around 1 minute in length, and the audience queues the order of these pieces from a “playlist” by verbally calling out the next piece they want to see. Queer Dance Freakout is ever changing; every piece and performance the company writes and choreographs is created from their own life experiences! No Freakout performance is the same, as they devise new work every season (and of course repeat some of their favorites). They can't wait to freakout with you!
