ABOUT THE SHOW: Jane and the Velvet Horns is a very special symposium hosted by famed researcher Jane Goodyck. For the past year, Jane has been traveling the globe interviewing every gay animal she could find. Tonight we meet a few of those animals: doodlebugs, penguins, and gender bending deer. Jane and the Velvet Horns is a piece about family and acceptance. There will be laughter, dancing, and music. There will also be real facts about Queer animals that live in this great big gay animal Queen-dom.
