The Heather Lang Show by Eleanor Bauer and Vice Versa is a double one-woman show: double the woman, double the show. In the uniquely gregarious context of a drag show cum spiritual talk show cum QVC infomercial, two outrageous and entertaining performers appropriate and reinvent the language and performance ethics of “realness”. Combining genres of performance, remixing character prototypes and archetypes, challenging the economy of stuff with the immeasurable value of experience, these unlikely partners in crime fashion a homemade and uncanny amalgam of critiques on cultural identity, capitalism, creative expression and entertainment that holds a broken compact mirror up to the real(ness) world in all its twisted glory.

“Eleanor and Heather together is a whole lotta fierce in one place, ok? GET INTO IT.” – Miguel Gutierrez

Trash Is Fierce Episode 2: Destiny’s Realness was made possible with space grants from Kaaitheater and Heather’s living room
