San Francisco Says Goodbye to GenderEnders!
After three years running, the San Francisco-based trans/intersex/genderqueer-focused performance series GenderEnders will have its final show:
Friday, September 15th, 2006
at Femina Potens Gallery
465 South Van Ness @ 16th St
Mission District, San Francisco, CA
8pm, $5 cover, $3 for open mic performers
GenderEnders curator and host julia serano first created the series in 2003 in order to foster community among transgender-, intersex-, and genderqueer-identified performers and to provide opportunities for gender/sex variant voices to reach larger audiences. Now that the Bay Area’s burgeoning “trans” performance scene is going strong, with numerous trans-focused, trans-hosted, and trans-friendly events occurring every month, Serano has decided to retire the series in order to focus on a more trans woman-specific project early next year.
This final installment will feature the hilarious Ham-Bone Johnson, host / curator of the Three Dollar Bill Cafe’s Queer Open Mic Cindy Emch, and author of the upcoming book For Lack of a Better Word Thea Hillman. Host Julia Serano will also be reading a brief excerpt from her upcoming book Whipping Girl.
In addition to the featured performers, GenderEnders hosts a performance open mic. Attendees are encouraged to bring their announcements and their music, spoken word, stand-up comedy, performance art, or any other type of performance to the event.

Jon Sims Center and SF in Exile Present:
CAKE & DEBAUCHERY:
an evening of uncommon erotica
Tickets: at door $8-$20 sliding scale / no one turned away for lack of funds
Showtime: Sat., October 7, 8:00 PM
Cake: [keyk] n. A tasty dessert often found at birthday celebrations.
Debauchery: [di-baw-chuh-ree] n. Excessive indulgence in sensual pleasures. Best when combined with cake.
Join Katrina James as she celebrates her thirty-sixth birthday by hosting an evening of out-of-the-ordinary erotica and burlesque. In a city where sexual preferences and gender orientations span the colors of the rainbow, what stories have slipped sideways out of view? What is unusual? Untold? Difficult to choreograph without illustrated instructions?
Sherilyn Connelly, Cookie, Cindy Emch, Marlo Gayle, Dorian Katz, Steven Schwartz, and Lori Selke will tell tales of consensual kidnapping, offer erotic twists on Hans Christian Anderson, entice you with burlesque, maul you with BEARlesque, and even get literally Cronenbergesque. And, of course, what birthday celebration would be complete without cake and spankings?
The show features queer and transgendered artists whose performances will be recorded for the SFinX online archive at www.SFinX.org.
