Futurewomen (S1, E3) - The Quest
Blackity Black Pride • Documentary
Futurewomen is an alternate reality series about the creation of black superheroines!
In this episode, we explore the stories of the characters in Honey Pot Performance's Ma(s)king Her, a dance-theater work of speculative fiction about empowered future beings and journeywomen.
Ma(s)king Her is the newest work by Honey Pot Performance (HPP), a woman-focused collaborative creative community committed to chronicling and interrogating Afro-diasporic feminist and fringe subjectivities amidst the pressures of contemporary global life. HPP has been working together in Chicago since 2001, most recently at the University of Chicago as part of its Crossing Boundaries Residency.
