This show is inspired by their Granny (born 1908) getting picked up by a tornado (in 1920), the writer Jorge Luis Borges (born 1899) and his short story Circular Ruins (written in 1940), an eternal marriage becoming an eternal divorce (∞), their Mormon temple name [redacted], rock bottoms, and rocks.The show takes place on a floating clod of dirt that hovers in the eye of the tornado. You—the audience—get sucked up into this domain, ruled by a crone so ancient, so washed up, they are difficult to distinguish from the rock formations that surround them.Through a vortex of magical surrealism and fringe society wisdom, Sugar Mud explores themes of natural order, oral histories, historical birth orders, family lineage, and generational rock bottoms. The show examines the device of storytelling–how it is used to foist systemic control, and the alchemy that occurs when stories are rewritten–restructuring the imposed order. And because we’re traveling through time in a tornado, much thematic mass gets picked up along the way. The show asks important questions like “what’s dangerous and to who?,” “whose is this and why is it on me?,” and “what’s the dog’s name?”But most importantly, on its face and on it’s floor, the show is absurdly stupid.Artist BioM. Beasley, who performs under the pseudonym Meat Bar, is a queer comedian and interdisciplinary artist born and based in California, whose practice spans across multi-media performance, writing, costume design, and visual art.Their show Sugar Mud premiered at Hollywood Fringe in 2025. They have performed at LA Astrofest and the Elysian Spaghettifest as 1/10th of the astrology clown ensemble Planets, Planets Planets. In 2024, they were a VIP in Resident at LA’s Elysian theater as ⅓ of the theater group and performance art ensemble Autobodies, performing their original play Re-membering Our Lil Guy. Additionally, they have performed at Moab Stoopfest, UCB Del Close Marathon, SF Sketchfest, and San Diego Improv Festival. Clown credentials include studying under Amrita Dhaliwal and Zach Steel at the Idiot Workshop (Los Angeles) and with Endgames Improv Theater in San Francisco.Meat shockingly completed their undergraduate studies at BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY, where they had to sign a contract swearing that they were not gay. During their Latin American studies capstone, they became obsessed with the writing of Jorge Luis Borges who--shockingly--taught there towards the end of his life because he heard Mark Twain hated Mormons and he had to know why. Meat’s work frequently explores obsession, golems, time-space compression, and the relationship of myth to reality to myth–all relating back to the work of this poet and the cults they were raised in: Mormonism and America.*Show Quotes“Rarely do you arrive in a theater and get transported both gently and instantaneously. Part magical realism, part grandma hang time – Meat made us all familiars in this strangely beautiful space.”“There are shows where you are aware the whole time you’re watching a show and there are shows where you are utterly moved away from traditional time and space. I got lost within this show’s magic – its elegant movement, its crunchy weird comedy, its ethereal exploration of familial ick and heart – this is a special show.”“Meat was not just a granny, a Mormon gossip, I was a grand kid, I was a Mormon gossip. I was so brought into this transcendent world and did not want to leave. The stage pictures, set, and costuming were in a riveting conversation with each other. Laughing every second, this lil’rally throbbed with brilliance.”“Sugar Mud was an inventive, beautiful mix of sacred and profane. Surprises throughout and the ending had me sitting with my mouth wide open. I felt like I was in the damn Courage the Cowardly Dog house.” https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/20aa1cf0-39fb-11f1-bd1f-f1e10f03be6f-rimg-w740-h740-dc030206-gmir.jpg Want more shows and deals?
