Venue: Echo Theater: 1515 SE 37th Ave, Portland, OR 97214
What do pro wrestlers, dancing puppets, angry office supplies, and haunted zine fests have to do with it? They’re all part of Fanfiction, a drag show and zine release for our fifth issue of Selene Latrine’s Outhouse !
Celebrate the newest installment and our first all-comics issue of Outhouse with us. This time around, we’re celebrating queer artists and their narratives to lift them up to deserved fandom status. Be transported by performances featuring some of your favorite worlds and lore, all through a decidedly ziney, zany, draggy lens. Follow Selene and the Outhouse crew as they encounter comic foibles to creating their newest issue. That’s right, it’s a zine story within a zine show within a zine..! Our cast will provide many delightful, extended narrative detours into their hilarious stories all along the merry way.
This is an Outhouse unlike anything we’ve ever done before! See the fruits of our experimentation and be one of the first to take the magnificent all-comics zine home with you for a mere $7!

Background about Outhouse: Selene Latrine’s & Outhouse Zine is a queer publication that’s over-the-top, bombastic, fun, and eschews conventional separations of art forms. Each zine contains artwork (essays, song lyrics, comics, collage) by local Portland drag performers and queer artists reflecting on a theme. Each issue wraps with an epic release party where each contributor has an opportunity to add performance elements to their piece. So far, we’ve published four issues: Outhouse #1: Arms and Legs; Outhouse #2 Bitchowar (a doggy metal parody zine;) Outhouse #3 ads...Ads...ADS!!!; and Outhouse #4 Church of Outhouse.
Selene Latrine’s Outhouse Zine is honored to be funded in part by the Regional Arts & Culture Council and the Office of Arts & Culture.
