The updated Flyover website vows to “take the under out of representation,” and their lineup delivers.
Programming will continue to include fashion-focused events, musical performances, discussions and artist exhibitions including a collaboration with Hancher to exhibit the work of (totally bonkers in the best way) costume designer Machine Dazzle. Iowa City audiences might be familiar with Machine Dazzle through his work with Taylor Mac.

Hancher was a proud commissioner and presenter of Taylor Mac’s 1846–1856 Whitman vs. Foster: Songs Popular Near the Breaking Point, a portion of the artist’s 24-Decade History of Popular Music. Now, in a condensed version of this magnum opus, Mac returns to take us on a musical and theatrical journey through American history. Easily one of the most dazzling performers of our time, Mac will take you out of your comfort zone and into a new conception of our shared story.
Iowa City's own Awful Purdies will join Taylor Mac for portions of this performance.
Please note: This performance includes mature content.
