PAUL (takes the form of a mortal girl)
Event description
PAUL
Adapted from the novel Paul takes the form of a mortal girl by Andrea Lawlor
Written and directed by Yev Gelman (Fordham ’24)
It's 1993 and Paul Polydoris tends bar at the only gay club in a university town thrumming with politics and partying. He studies queer theory, has a dyke best friend, makes zines, and is a flaneur with a rich dating life. But Paul's also got a secret: he's a shapeshifter. Oscillating wildly from Riot Grrrl to leather cub, Paul transforms his body and his gender at will as he crosses the country –– a journey and adventure through the deep queer archives of struggle and pleasure.
