If you are in Boston please come bare witness to the unique experience that is Hypothesis, a night of inventive performance hosted by Johnny Blazes and Made of Honor. This month's theme is predator and prey. how deliciously foreboding this sounds.
 
 
There is no better way to start the day after a wonderful, puppet-filled cabaret (that rhyming was totally unintentional but you know what I am leaving it) then waking up to some lovely words on the blog of one of your favorite magazines.
Check out Geppetta on bitchmedia's sm{art}!

Blood From a Turnip 
Friday March 18, 2011 at 10pm

Rhode Island’s oldest late night puppet salon!
Enjoy the salon that has lasted longer than some marriages.
SEATS STILL $5, after all these years.
Featuring:
Earmarc’d featuring Lisa Abbatomarco.
Abbatomarco is a veteran puppeteer who has traversed a good portion of the country under guise of mask and paper mache as she has played within the refinery of psyche using text, sound and imagery and movement.  Her new piece asks “Who’s which way is the what and where we are wandering when we watch?”.  Wow.

The Neckhater by Geppetta.
Geppetta travels from Philadelphia with this piece about a young lad who makes desperate attempts to rid himself of a neck, the consequences of which must be seen to be believed.

Little’s Creatures, a perennial favorite at BfaT for their colorful, quick, and funny pieces brings a new treat from Boston.

A short film by David Leicht to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day

And, as always, charming and personable musical interludes, this time in the form of
ukulele magic by Geppetta

 
 
Just spent the last day in New York meeting the artists and activists who will featured on the Heels on Wheels Glitter Roadshow April 15th - 25th including Amanda Cheong, Shomi Noise, Damien Luxe, and Heather Acs. I am very excited to live the dream/ share the dream with these folks. Also I am always pleased to dork out on social justice activism and queer performance forever and ever.

more on this soon!
