Halifax Fringe Festival - I am 108
Juanita Bang Bang, a Latina drag queen, tells and enacts the story of the number 108: the number of males, presumably homosexuals, detained during a murder investigation conducted by the Paraguayan Dictator Alfredo Stroessner in 1959. To this day, this number is used as a way to discredit a person based on their sexual orientation. However, the number has been reclaimed by local LGBTQ+ members from a shameful association to one of pride. "I am 108" focuses on the fusion of extravagance and meaningful narrative.
Content Notice: Mature subject matter, themes of violence and homophobia
