BODYSTORM premieres TRANSMARSH, a free outdoor vertical dance performance celebrating trans existence as a vital part of our ecosystem. Get Ready for TRANSMARSH! Soaring over the Turk and Taylor intersection over the Timbri Hotel in SAN FRANCISCO's Tenderloin during SF Trans March Weekend, TRANSMARSH IS A FREE OUTDOOR VERTICAL DANCE PERFORMANCE BY TRANS PEOPLE, for trans people — and all who love them. Directly across from the site of the 1966 trans-led uprising against police brutality at Compton's Cafeteria — now operating as a for-profit prison owned by GEO Group — B Dean/BODYSTORM, Pangaea, and tome rewild the Tenderloin with the memory of trans ecologies: the queer life that pulsed through this block, asking how we grieve the past, adapt to the present, and rise through the coming storms together. ????
