In this 15 minute performance art experience, immerse yourself quietly in the a re-reading of Lot’s Wife in honor of the LGBTQ community and the people of Sodom.

THE STORY OF LOT’S WIFE is a 15-minute long performer-less play that re-centers the biblical story of Lot and his family onto the character of Lot’s Wife. In this re-centering the unnamed woman is not turned into salt, she chooses to become it to preserve the historical traumas the Sodomites, and all queer people, have endured. In this private and introspective piece individuals are welcomed into a curving, blue velvet lined space and receive a booklet of poems exploring queer identity, memory, and loss through the lens of Lot’s Wife. The piece moves through the space welcoming audience members to complete a series of actions with water, salt, text, and their own memories.
