Penguin the Fish

Date
Sun 15 - Fri 20 Jun 2025

This serious art piece explores the idea of being torn and questions what a Queer Jewish Body represents on stage.

Penguin is a fish that was cut in half when Moses parted the red sea, way back when. That’s it, that’s the story. He is ok – he has just spent a long time wandering across the earth and tonight he is here to entertain you because of… reasons. Two important things to remember is that he is not gay, and that he is very wet. This is a WIP (emphasis on the WIP) clowning piece exploring feelings related to Queer Judaism with the queer creative strategies of dick jokes, spanking, and water sports. Deeply not inspired by Marina Abramovic, this serious art piece explores the idea of being torn and questions what a Queer Jewish Body represents on stage. Expect spit and God.
