An experimental work of queer fantasy and history, PLAYLAND conjures a time-bending night in Boston’s oldest and most notorious gay bar with an ensemble of queer performers including Lady Bunny and Danielle Cooper. The Playland Café (1937-1998) was a critical part of many queer histories—a safe space at a time when violence and oppression of queer bodies were both common and prolific. PLAYLAND moves freely across time and across form, utilizing theater and opera, dance, and archival footage. Artist-filmmaker Georden West, a former Fine Arts Work Center Fellow, returns to Provincetown to showcase this finished work of stepping into Boston’s lost queer haven.
