Taylor Mac

The Karen Finley Live DVD features performances of her works "Shut Up and Love Me" and "Make Love", which were presented in 2001.

This riotous concert film documents New York theater legend Taylor Mac's joyous, challenging, and ostentatiously queer 24-hour musical performance. Featuring virtuoso musicians, innovative costumes, and the American myth as told by sailor's ditties, disco, and sugary pop alike, Mac's cathartic celebration is not to be missed.

Celebrate the holidays in all of their dysfunction! This virtual vaudeville blends music, film, burlesque, and random acts of fabulousness to reframe the songs you love and the holidays you hate in the most subversive and cathartic event of the season. There is more to the holidays than rampant capitalism and gift giving and in Taylor Mac’s world creativity and imagination are their own spirituality, reminding us of the collective power of our chosen families.

Mary Ann returns to present-day San Francisco and is reunited with her daughter and ex-husband, twenty years after leaving them behind to pursue her career. Fleeing the midlife crisis that her picture-perfect Connecticut life created, Mary Ann is quickly drawn back into the orbit of Anna Madrigal, her chosen family and a new generation of queer young residents living at 28 Barbary Lane.
