Form-busting performance artist Adrienne Truscott returns to the Spiegeltent as the one and lonely Païge Trnr, the forgotten cabaret legend and figment of her own imagination. Joined by an all-lady band (musical director Viva DeConcini on guitar, Brittany Anjou on keys, and Bernice “Boom Boom” Brooks on drums), Païge is here to misinterpret and pervert some of the best and worst songs ever written. Païge will bring you to your feet (or knees) whether you like it or not, and whether she has autonomy over her body and her cocktails or not. Come! It’ll be so much pun.

Adrienne Truscott’s 24-Minute Misinterpretation of Song, Time, and Jeenyus

Fisher Center at Bard

Le Gateau Chocolat is a man. Adrienne Truscott is a woman. Le Gateau Chocolat is a gay, black, English-Nigerian man and drag artiste. Adrienne Truscott is a cis white feminist American female performance artist. Le Gateau Chocolat is a multi-award-winning, plus-sized, bearded, drag diva feminist. Adrienne Truscott is a multi-award-winning comedian and provocateur who enjoys chocolate cake, up to a point. They are dear friends, and here, as in everyday life, they perform a multiplicity of identities: perceived, lived, and projected. As their comical banter turns personal, political debates erupt, and grey areas (and arias) are exposed. Between musical numbers that span Madame Butterfly and Annie, they spring rhetorical traps designed to catch any who overstep the blurred lines of the politically correct and interrogate the boundaries of allyship.
