About the Weenie
Queer Theatre
1. Differing in some odd way from what is usual or normal: STRANGE, CURIOUS, PECULIAR, UNEXPECTED. 2. Of questionable character: ECCENTRIC, ODD, UNCONVENTIONAL 3. mildly insane: TOUCHED, OBSESSED, HIPPED. 4. slang: sexually deviate: HOMOSEXUAL. 5. AMUSING, COMICAL.Our History
Screaming Weenie was born in Alaska, conceived from the sweat of founders Matthew Bennet, Ilena Lee Cramer (Artistic Director), Dale Kohlmetz and Kären Matthews. It soon became apparent that a weenie, screaming or no, yearns for warmer, damper climes. So off to Vancouver Ilena and the Weenie went, settling comfortably in the rainy city.
