“As this country is descending into really militant transphobia, there was something about the simplicity of the jellyfish. It’s mostly water. It just kind of floats around.”

Vlada Kremenović is bringing Medusa to the Risk/Reward mainstage this June, a performance about trans bodies, community, and what it means to find the people you’re meant to be with.

Every performer in this piece is someone from Vlada’s own community. Someone they cherish.

On the mainstage at Risk/Reward 2026 — June 11–14 at PICA. Link in bio for tickets.

Most shows have a person who does the plot and a person who does the other things. This one doesn’t.

Their show Bird, I am is on the mainstage at Risk/Reward 2026, June 11–14 at PICA. Link in bio for tickets.
