Description | Comparison is Violence - Sequins, glitter and gloves are just a taste of the strange beauty that makes up Taylor Mac's ukulele-strumming fusion of performance art, cabaret and drag. Flamboyant pastiche reveals subtle artistry as what begins as gender-bendingly surreal becomes compellingly human. Mac's cathartic tirade of political, hysterical and ultimately poignant rants is both powerfully defiant and refreshingly frail. Mac straddles the divide between personal and political, celebratory and sad, masculine and feminine. | |||||||
