Presented by Common Ground Arts: A Google Doc performance for an audience of anonymous animals. Not all men are men. Welcome to the movies!

Initially conceived for an overhead projector, We Quit Theatre transformed 805-4821 into a live-typed digital performance for Google Docs during the Covid-19 pandemic and, compelled by this new form, have continued touring the show digitally.

A “queer auto biopic that transcends all the conventional boundaries” (Mooney On Theatre), 805-4821 blends reality, fiction, documentation, and desire to flip the trans-coming-out-narrative on its head. 805-4821 uses its minimalist setting as a canvas for a torrent of language, a profound theatrical experiment in which text itself becomes the performer, existing in playful tension with many forms, including theatre, expanded cinema, and auto-fiction, exploring childhood trauma, transition, depersonalization, and action movies.
