HELPS TO HATE YOU A LITTLE

A LOVE STORY

Helps to Hate You a Little: a Lovestory is a tragic farce that unfolds in and underneath New York City. Nasreen-- a Persephone for the 21st century French-Algerian dyke diaspora-- lives in New York City: above-ground where she engages in emotionally questionable secret sexual relationships, and below-ground, where she confronts the animal of her self and other outcasts at a gay bar called The Scapegoat. When a lover who hurt her above-ground wanders into the Scapegoat one night, fur flies, teeth clash, and the possibility for catharsis through rage and violence reveals itself in an epic wrestling match.
