Looking for Tiger Lily: A Multimedia Drag Experience
March 5, 2022 @ 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm
Starring Anthony Hudson – the human vessel for Portland’s premiere drag clown Carla Rossi – Looking for Tiger Lily utilizes song, dance, drag, and video to put a queer spin on the ancestral tradition of storytelling.
Asking what it means for a queer mixed Native person to experience their heritage through white normative culture as they recount growing up watching the 1960 production of “Peter Pan” featuring Sondra Lee’s blonde, blue-eyed “Indian Princess” Tiger Lily, Anthony (and Carla) draw from a songbook stretching across Disney’s “Pocahontas” to Cher’s “Half-Breed.”
Not just autobiography, Looking for Tiger Lily is a coming-of-age story that’s more than cowboys versus Indians.
