Jacob’s Pillow Festival is famous in the dance world for the caliber of its international talent. And it is legendary in LGBTQ history for its founder, modern dance pioneer Ted Shawn, who blazed trails with an all-male troupe that included his longtime lover. While there’s much to celebrate about the organization’s past, this year its Pillow Pride Party invites two performers who are helping to define the dance world’s future: The Dragon Sisters. At any given performance, queer NYC-based friends Issa Perez and Cain Coleman might combine classical, contemporary, hip hop and vogue dancing alongside equally category-busting fashion, such as full beards with fishnets and corsets. When you’re done ogling their amazing moves, strut your own stuff on the dance floor.
