Performance Introducing Suitable for english audience

Of Coal and Rainbow

Paweł Świerczek

There’s a lot of glitter in Silesia! As the queer son of a Silesian miner, Paweł Świerczek lives in a constant clash with the images of masculinity of his youth, environment and family versus his own queerness.  On the basis of intimate encounter between him and his father, he moves queerly through this dark, heteronormative world and digs in the black coal for a rainbow.
