Guests gather around a decadent, lavishly decorated table. Behind the small talk, the most existential of questions wait to be asked: “Am I a Twink or a Daddy? What will I leave behind if I don’t have children? And what does it mean to be queer in a world where we understand global destruction as a sobering reality instead of adventure-fuelled escapism, a Hollywood blockbuster, best enjoyed with popcorn?”

A HOLE IS A HOLE IS A HOLE IS is a tragicomic exploration of self-perception and societal norms. Sappho Ton Bogataj, Christopher Ramm, and Marco Merenda invite you to their immersive family get-together. Decades after coming out, they reassess their journeys through the lens of Audre Lorde’s “biomythography,” narrativizing their biographies into epic myth. Choreographies, confessions, and vows blend together on the symbolic table.
