Spiritual sessions with popper-induced trances, lycanthropic nahual strippers, anal vampiresses. Binding spells sealed with a rain of blood, satanic dances. Sexual pacts with demonic entities and orgies with transsexual “tlahuelpuchis” that produce wet nightmares. These are some of the acts on offer in this Los Angeles debut by Lechedevirgen. Lechedevirgen crosses sexual dissidence and performance art with horror and mesoamerican mysticism. The monstrosity of non-binary trans BIPOC identities are deployed as figures of political transformation, staging decolonizing raids against white supremacist, transphobic, heteropatriarchal mechanisms of stigmatization, pathologization and criminalization. 

“En mi tierra no somos queer, somos jotxs. En mi tierra no somos drag queens, somos travestis. En mi tierra no hacemos performance art, hacemos brujería.”
