would you mind? could you? can I ask? is it possible?

Created and performed by Garrett Allen

How do you ask? How can I ask?

I think I can figure it out. I can. At least I think so.

This is an experiment in doing and being, I and we, and compassion. I think it always is.

I don’t have a lot–two hands and maybe some other things–but I want to try. Make to try. Trying.

I am grateful for your support. I want to pull this together to show you some things but it is just a bit involved if you happen to be able to help me out? I think I can do it though. It’s okay.

would you mind? could you? can I ask? is it possible? is a solo performance with text, sound, and movement created, run, and performed by Garrett Allen in a theater in New York, here, now, with you. It explores help–support, assistance, resources, service, and presence.

Black Trans Liberation Kitchen

Black Trans Liberation Kitchen is an organization centered in community based empowerment, advocacy, and celebration of TGNC people.
