TELL, a queer storytelling show

RSVP TO THIS EVENT HERE
Hosted and curated by Drae Campbell, join us at The Bureau for an evening of queer storytelling. This month’s theme is “Ghosts”. Joined by artist and activist Lyssette Horne, actor and musician Han Van Sciver, and storyteller Rawya El Chab, come hear the chaos and the comedy that unites us in our queerness. We’ve all got those stories. Let’s tell them.
Lyssette Horne is a black, queer, artist and activist, skin cancer survivor and breast cancer previvor. Inspired by the works of Audre Lorde, Lyssette created Black Queer Roar: A Guide to Self-care in the Face of Trauma, an online blog sharing the realities and barriers BIPOC Queer and Trans people face accessing health equity. Lyssette’s activism has led to many creative endeavors including an Emmy nominated short documentary about the myths and causes related to youth homelessness. They were also named one of the ‘Top Forty Under 40’ by The Advocate magazine and their work was featured on the cover of Gay City News.
Han Van Sciver is a Brooklyn-based actor and musician. Theatre: At The Wedding (Lincoln Center), An Oxford Man (Manhattan Theatre Club, Ted Snowden Series), and Galatea (New Georges). Film: Regulars; upcoming: The Fell. TV: Elsbeth, The Walking Dead. Percussion: Joe’s Pub. MFA: Brown/Trinity Rep.
Rawya El Chab is a New York City–based storyteller. Her work digs through archives, family histories, and collective memory to explore where personal stories collide with political history.
