when my body talks explores our first-time queer experiences—how they resonate in our bodies and shape our identities. Inspired by the question, “Why do we keep having ‘first-time’ experiences as queer people?”, the piece deconstructs moments of discovery, secrecy, celebration, and love through movement, monologue, and music. when my body talks fosters a shared exploration of storytelling to reimagine the past and create a better future, and was developed at Diversionary Theatre in San Diego, one of the oldest LGBTQIA+ theatres in the US and presente at La Jolla Playhouse WOW Festival.
