Not My First Pandemic
LIVE IN PERSON ENGAGEMENT
Written & Performed by Cesar Cadabes
Directed by Kat Evasco
What kind of community can survive two pandemics? Cesar Cadabes' one man show-in-development takes a closer look at what a Gay Filipino man goes through traveling from Hawaii to San Francisco. It is a journey where he discovers his most empowered self with a community that helps him survive the AIDS pandemic and enables him to thrive during the COVID pandemic. While there is now a COVID vaccine, there is none for AIDS after 40 years from the first reported cases. Self love, community love, romantic love and political protests intersect in Cesar's important story. This is not just a one man show, but a bridge to a better understanding of the AIDS pandemic and its importance to the current pandemic.
The presentation of Not My First Pandemic was supported in part by the San Francisco Arts Commission.
$15 - $30 sliding scale.
Presented by Brava Theater Center.
