Play Practice is a weekly group meeting of queer and trans artists initiated by Anna Muselmann in August 2023. Together, the group explores the relationships between play and games, rules and freedom, leading and following, desire and consent, and power and authority.

With the intention of creating a non-hierarchical space in which everyone leads, everyone follows, everyone teaches, everyone learns, everyone speaks, everyone listens, and everyone is empowered to both express their desires and to say no, Play Practice explores individual and group curiosity and need, and invites us to notice our relational patterns, roles, and all that comes up in the group— frustration, conflict, boredom, tension, silliness, pleasure, awkwardness, release—and to play with it all.

Tell Me What to Do captures the first three months of Play Practice, in a performance edited by Anna Muselmann and made in collaboration with Play Practice members Ify Akiti, Nic Baird, Kathryn Camacho, Chip Kimura, Koz, Phoebe Osborne, Vitche-Boul Ra, reed rushes, Jen Steinbeck, Coco Villa, Sam White, Lu Yim, and Angel Zinovieff.
