In the seventies, at the peak of the DISCOTHÈQUE era, the hearts of Latin and African-American immigrants, WHOLE or BROKEN, shared the hopeful LOOP of GLAMOUR. They all died. This is a war. Miss Universe takes refuge in a bunker that, during the fascist years, used to be a nightclub. There, she encounters gay ghosts.
Drawing from a real archive — from her uncle Ricardo Wagner — which merges with fiction, We at the Club Suffer Together is a hyperpop opera where the bunker becomes a phantasmagorical, utopian nightclub, reinterpreting homoerotic themes through an androgynous and transfeminist lens. A theatrical and operatic gesture that embraces suffering and opens the way to a new future.
