Butch Mermaid Productions
Founded by Ania Upstill in 2019.
Butch Mermaid Productions is a transdisciplinary company whose mission is to make queer joy irresistible and contagious, envisioning a world where all queer people experience joy and belonging. BMP has presented work at Frigid Fringe (NYC), Queerly Festival (NYC), Dixon Place (NYC), New Zealand Fringe, Auckland Pride (NZ), Adelaide Fringe Festival (AUS), Edinburgh Fringe Festival (UK), the Kennedy Center (DC), PhysFestNYC, and Philadelphia Fringe/Cannonball Festival.
In our work we value collaborating with diverse queer* creatives; embracing curiosity; working across theatrical forms and media; paying queer* people; and creating learning opportunities for audiences.
* we use 'queer' as a catch-all term for the LGBTQIA2S+ community
