We meet ASÍ post bathroom break wearing a ginormous strap-on expecting to return to an evening of ravenous intercourse with a beautiful woman. Instead of the woman in question, they stumble upon a solo show with an audience just for them. Perfect. Using stand-up comedy, audience interaction, and childhood anecdotes doused in overconfident lesbian charm, ASÍ wins over their newfound crowd. That is, until their show is infiltrated by their toxically masculine habits and the entrance of their childhood nemesis, RAIDEN. What ensues is a literal WWE wrestling match between ASÍ and RAIDEN, exposing their internal battle between familial cycles of machismo and the pursuit of true love. This campy, form defying piece of dyke theater invigorates the traditional solo show with audio-visual spectacle, meta-theatrics, and the harsh truths of Texan, Latiné, and lesbian life.
