Join Palomar College's Pride Center for a very special screening of "Playland" followed by an in-person conversation with the film's director, Student Academy Award winner Georden West! With an eclectic ensemble of queer performers, including drag icon Lady Bunny and POSE's Danielle Cooper, "Playland" is transdisciplinary in every sense of the word: music, dance, archival footage, tableaux, opera, and performance art are layered into an ethereal piece subverting all boundaries.
