9/4 – GREGORY BARNETT
I Will Reapply This Lipstick Until You Give Me A Reason Not To (going to put a bow on it)/ BUT I DON’T UNDERSTAND, YOU LOOKED SO HAPPY.
You are going let this out. Come clean. Tell them: THERE IS TOO MUCH HEART FOR THIS BODY NOW! THERE IS TOO MUCH- PERIOD! I CAN SCREAM FOR YEARS! But they will ask you to fit this in a sentence. They will see that big ass encyclopedia you’re carrying with you and ask for one sentence. You’ll try, and you will fail. You are going to fail. (THERE IS TOO MUCH H-fail.). So now you are dancing like it’s your salvation, and you are lying to everybody. (A five hour solo involving Betty Hutton, Gregory Barnett, and insufficient parameters.)

9/18 – KATE GILBERT
Tea Party
Kate Gilbert’s newest work attempts gestures of grace through a series of pseudo-violent acts at a shifting dining room table. Inspired by the work of third-wave feminist Judy Chicago, the sunny-faced demeanor of media sensation Rachael Ray and Roland Barthes’ poeticizing of emptiness in “Empire of Signs,” this absurdist play explores what it means to be civilized in the presence of impossible realities such as Death, Illness and Michelle Bachmann. Tea and cakes to be served.
7pm /// $10
9/25 – PAUL OUTLAW
What Did I Do to Be So Black and…
(a dream I had/after falling asleep/with the Fox News Channel on)
A surrealistic meditation on a controversial alternative lifestyle: blacks and gays in the Republican Party. This new “mixed media piece” features live performance and video by Paul Outlaw, as well as a sculptural installation consisting of costume, set and prop pieces by Curt LeMieux and Joe Seely. The disparate ingredients of this 30-minute work combine to create a witch’s brew of cultural artifacts from the past hundred years.
7pm /// $10
