What are you looking for?

what are you looking for? is a 60-minute piece about Grindr. Four queer performers speak into microphones, a polyphonic stream-of-consciousness chorale for the digital world. It takes place over one night on Grindr, told through the messages sent by a group of gays. Bold, funny, occasionally shocking, it explores the ways queer desire, loneliness, and hedonism intersect, and the ways technology mediate our romantic and sexual lives. Some of the voices are looking for love, some for a quick hookup – as refrains echo between them, and rhythm becomes song, we offer a plaintive, chant – a paean to sensuality, exploring the ways apps have changed  relationships and opened up new ways of expressing what you are looking for, as well as closing down the avenues for meaningful connection.
