In Fat, Femme and Crippled, Alex drives their mobility scooter on the intersection between disability and queer culture. Using their experience as a non-verbal queer person to educate, captivate, but most of all titillate their audiences as they demonstrate that disabled people are just as filthy and capable of making the same bad life choices as everyone else. This performance is not one to miss. Expect to leave feeling both delighted and disgusted all at once.
