Babies on the Street: the Show (2023, 2024)
previously untitled gabbie project
work-in-progress
 

Gabbie’s been journaling, writing music, working super hard – and also just learned she’s God’s Messiah. After going public, she’s on the front-page of the Internet. California Police and a rogue fan named Nick invade her house. In the background, a crowd forms, unsure if they should look. Her race is debated, her decades-long history in the public eye is crucified… they’re meme-ing her ass to death, girl. They laugh and pity and bite back, all while Her holy book is written.

​

Over 300 videos from internet personality @gabbiehanna's TikTok are adapted into a Stein-meets-Spears textual score, performed by an ensemble and live feed camera.
