BITCH

1 upcoming performance in New York

BITCH takes a loaded, everyday insult and tracks how it has been used to police behavior, mark power, and enforce gendered expectations in English-speaking culture. The event’s NYC stop at Rough Trade places that history in a room built for noise, argument, and reinvention, framed by rock and pop performances from Bleachers (solo acoustic), Violet Grohl, New Noise Magazine 81, Kelsey Lu, and Casi. No documented NYC premiere history is confirmed for this program. Its cultural significance lies in refusing euphemism and asking who gets named, and why.
