From Native American Two-Spirit culture to the Folsom Street Fair, lesbian auto mechanics to labor activists, dock workers to drag queens, OUT of Site: SOMA places audiences in the physical spaces of our LGBTQ2+ ancestors to rediscover the hidden history of San Francisco's South of Market neighborhood. Performances by Kai Brothers, Maria David, Brian Freeman, Marga Gomez, Ryan Hayes and J. Miko Thomas aka Landa Lakes.
Conceived and directed by Eye Zen Founder and Artistic Director Seth Eisen, OUT of Site launched last spring with a sold-out run of performance-tours in San Francisco's North Beach neighborhood. The project continues this year with a spotlight on San Francisco's South of Market neighborhood. With the establishment of the world's first "Leather and LGBTQ Cultural District" at the Western end of SoMa, and the imminent completion of Eagle Plaza as a focal point for the new district, OUT of Site celebrates the neighborhood at a pivotal moment in its history.
Audiences will gather at Howard Langton Community Garden with an entrance at 10 Langton Street. From there, they will proceed for a total distance of a mile, finishing at Ringold Alley. Stops along the way include non-extant leather bars, bathhouses and lesbian clubs, reached via secret alleys, leveled sand dunes and buried waterways, echoing voices of queer workers and residents who called this home, then and now.
