episode 1: Sara Porkalob’s Villain Arc
Season four kicks off with artist, activist, cultural worker, and Pisces, Sara Porkalob (she/they)! Sara and hosts Harrow (they/them) and Meghan (she/her) get pumped for Dragon Cycle, Sara’s trilogy of musical plays about her family (and the queer upbringing of our dreams), manifesting the next role in their villain arc, queerness as performance, mentoring as resource sharing, and intersectional performance critique. She also shares her reaction to and takeaways from the response to the 1776 Vulture interview and how she continues to live and practice her values.
