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.

Dancers grace the stage, and lyrical or staccato rhythms vibrate. Ever popular, Victoria Mariachi, and Rick and Friends return. There is dance for every taste from San Diego Ballet to Aztec Dancers. Theater lovers of all ages will be treated to The Old Globe and Fern St. Circus.
