How to Become a Saint (while wearing pants)- NYC Fringe


How to Become a Saint (while wearing pants) is a devised clown play. The play uses clown, physical theater and music to celebrate the queerness of sainthood. We highlight three saints who had major transitions in their lives: St. Marinos (female to monk), Margery Kempe (mother to virgin), and Joan of Arc (country girl to gender nonconforming military leader and icon). By looking at their stories, we ask: who gets to be a saint? What narratives do we choose to celebrate? And how does cake taste so good?

Written & Performed by Lex Alston, Becca Canziani, Brooke Ferris, Lynn Hodeib, and Ania Upstill.
