As the Guerrilla Girl Aphra Behn, Kaz created comedic performance art,  street theatre and visual works that began both a dialogue and a pushback against discrimination in the theater world while proving feminists are funny at the same time.  “Act Like A Feminist Artist” is an insiders look at what went behind the posters,  protests, fax blitzes, speak outs and street theatre actions the Guerrilla Girls used  to attack and expose sexism and racism in theatre. It includes readings from  passages of Kaz’s new memoir, “UN/MASKED, Memoirs of a Guerrilla Girl On Tour.”  Get the inside scoop from a woman with two personas who takes off her mask and,  by merging her identities, reveals all.
