Back in rehearsal...
GENET PORNO is based on Jean Genet's 1943 novel, Our Lady of the Flowers, which follows the loves and betrayals of a transvestite prostitute named Divine. In our attempt to stage the "impossible ballet" of Divine's life, her story unfolds within a modern-day gay porn video shoot and incorporates present-day narrative elements from the confessional blog of a real-life porn star. Their stories merge as GENET PORNO explores our 21st Century culture of narcissism and the consequences that result from blurring the lines between our public and private lives. Directed by Yvan Greenberg, performed by Corey Dargel, Oleg Dubson, and Wil Smith.
