QUEER CAT PRODUCTIONS

2017-2023


From 2017-2023,
Queer Cat Productions created consent-forward accessible immersive experiences that left our audiences more connected.

We danced, we sang, and we imagined a performing arts company that was not just LGBTIA+ but queer, with queerness defined as playfulness, community, love, upending hierarchies, and collective liberation, and we shut down lovingly and intentionally at the end of 2023.

You can read about our productions in the SF Chronicle (2020, 2023), and KQED. And below is where you can find us!

Please keep in touch!

You can find Nicole Jost on social media at @nicolethejost and online via the New Play Exchange here.

You can find Syr Beker at SyrBeker.com and @Syr_Real, and their workshops at @Starmaps_Seamonsters.

And you can find the rest of our artists here, and on our socials!

Thank you for being part of our story.
We sincerely hope we made you proud.

WELCOME TO Queer Cat Productions

Queer Cat Productions creates consent-forward accessible immersive experiences that leave our audiences more connected. We believe in paying artists; we believe in queer theater, and queerness as we define it is loving community, playfulness, joy, upending hierarchies, and collective liberation. We believe theater should be physically accessible, consensual, collaborative, and fun.

Queer Cat Productions is a fiscally sponsored project of Z Space Studio, a 501(c)3 organization, and is supported by the Zellerbach Family Foundation, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, the California Arts Council, Theatre Bay Area, and by you, our community. Thank you for being part of our story!

Black, Indigenous, & POC queer and trans resistance has
made our existence possible.

Commitments to

fight anti-Blackness

As a queer theater company, we know that Black queer and trans resistance has made our existence possible. To honor those Black leaders, we mustdismantle white supremacy.
