After seven highly successful seasons that have drawn national attention to the AC/DC Series, we are revamping our focus to develop a new direction. We want to address the growing need in the community to also create rather than primarily consume culture. Thus, as envisioned, the eighth AC/DC Series will focus on developing a large scale community-based piece about gay male identity as seen through the eyes of St. Louisans. For more information about the new series, click on the link above for the Gay Male Identity Project.

A Bit of History
The Alternate Currents/Direct Currents Series was produced in the autumn and spring. It consisted of a series of work by or about gay men, lesbians, feminists and artists of color. Presented at the St. Marcus Theatre, AC/DC featured both nationally-acclaimed and emerging artists including Quentin Crisp, Tim Miller, Holly Hughes, Michael Kearns, Rhodessa Jones, Paul Bonin-Rodriguez, 4 Big Girls, Joe Salvatore and Kate Nugent, and Michael Kearns.

The Alternate Currents/Direct Currents Series was funded by the Regional Arts Commission and the Missouri Arts Council.

Performances were held at the St. Marcus Theatre, near Jefferson and Highways 40 & 44.
