Sister Spit Tour Dates
Sister Spit began in San Francisco in the 1990s as a weekly, girls-only open mic that was an alternative to the misogyny-soaked poetry open mics popular around the city (and the nation) at that time. Inspired by two-bit punk bands who managed to go on the road without hardly knowing how to play their instruments, Sister Spit became the first all-girl poetry roadshow at the end of the 90s, and toured regularly with such folks as Eileen Myles, Marci Blackman, Beth Lisick and Nomy Lamm.
The tour was revived as Sister Spit: The Next Generation in 2007, and has toured the United States annually since, with authors and performers such as Chinaka Hodge, Dorothy Allison, Lenelle Moise and Justin Vivian Bond. In this next incarnation, out of respect to the changing gender landscape of our queer and literary communities, Sister Spit welcomes artists of all genders, so long as they mesh with the tour’s historic vibe of feminism, queerness, humor and provocation.
About Sister Spit
Currently I’m only planning on the Sister Spit tour dates. However, if there’s any possible other avenues, get in touch and I’ll see if there’s room.
Other Performances
Bookings & Support
If you would like to book Sister Spit for the US West Coast tour, contact Radar Productions.
If you’d like to book me personally for your show anywhere else in the US, get in touch! These can be cabarets, showcases, conferences, fairs, anything at all! I can do excerpts/small acts or fashion together a longer show that would essentially be a mini solo version of Queer Lady Magician Part 1. I’m also available for any media appearances (TV, radio, print, web, etc) and public speaking opportunities (panels, workshops, speeches) related to Queer Lady Magician and its topics. See my acts here!
While I’ve covered my own airfare out of pocket and Sister Spit is covering on the ground expenses, I’m also interested in other sponsorships, donations, grants, and other means. If you’re able to help, get in touch!
