by ANDREA ZANIN
"I found out that in French, cock—la bite—is female, and vagina—le vagin—is male... and a piece was born." So says Lazlo Pearlman, a London, U.K.-based female-to-male transgender performance artist whose solo piece, Madame Pierre's Other Tongue, will enjoy its world premiere at this year's edition of Studio 303's Edgy Women Festival. The piece is a multilingual, gender-blurred work he describes as "a surreal cabaret about cunning linguists."
