 R.I.P. Rosy

R.I.P. rosy is a bright and playful piece about aliveness, love, death, and celebration. It follows the intimate romance between Clay Cosmo and his partner Rosy as their bond transforms with joy even as their physical forms change. Following clear instructions left by Rosy for her commemoration party, we are asked to get silly & deeply curious about what it means to be alive. Drawing from erotic ecology philosophies, our life/death/life cycles are invited into reflection. How may we use celebration as a way to confront grief and bring ourselves into action in these times when our aliveness is needed most?

An expanded cinema show. Premiered in NYC, booking tour 2025
