Show Notes

Corine Demas joins 'Tales of the 2SLGBTQ+'   

In this interview, Corine talks about her upcoming Fringe festival play titled, "The Bender." A play that weaves personal poetry throughout as the main character moves beyond the "fuckboys" in their past. Specifically, it is about a complicated relationship between Deloris, a 40-something queer woman, and Jordan, a young trans man who is a poet. 

We also go beyond just the play and have a very real discussion on a variety of topics, including her (lack of) inclusion in the queer community, and navigating the world with a disability. In addition, Corine shares a couple of poems from her recent book"10 20 30 40".  

Corine recently won the 2022 Mowat Diversity Award Winner and share with the audience her plans for the future.
