Hallelujah
Director
“Hallelujah” is a queer/circus concept about religion and the importance of choosing kindness regardless of our differences or beliefs. Religion is a tough subject for many in the LGBTQ community, and this piece is a reflection of the struggle and rejection we often feel. It tells the story of an individual troubled by the hate in the world and his partner who is fighting to lift him up, to remind him he is beautiful exactly how he is. My message is that religion should inspire more kindness and open arms, even towards those you may not understand.
The Arrow
When acrobats Matthew Richardson and Francis Perreault conceived of “The Arrow” in 2016 it was an expression of their love story. Then life happened and their work took on greater meaning to a global audience in the wake of unimaginable grief and sorrow, Richardson and Perreault’s creation is visual poetry in motion. It is art reflecting the lives of two men living their truth by expressing the power of love in strength, beauty, and joy. It’s easy to see why the stunning imagery of The Arrow and its story of [Love. Pride. Truth.] struck the heart of our global LGBT Community.
