HAPPY NEW YEAR & WINTER GIGS

Happy New Year! It's a very busy Winter-Spring 2007 ahead that will take me from performing at the Obscenity Conference at University of Iowa to the NYC run at PS 122 of 1001 BEDS to England for a gay men's performance project on the Birmingham Canals! Yeehaw!
An intensive performance workshop residency begins next week at Cal State Channel Islands (the brand new Cal State campus)
Next month I am at Cincinnati Playhouse to kick off their wonderful ALTERACTIVE Festival. http://news.enquirer.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070103/ENT07/701030312/1025
Then I'm at Appalachian State University in NC and in Phoenix and Tucson at Arizona State Iniversity and U of Arizona. I head back to Iowa City to perform at an amazing conference at University of Iowa on OBSCENITYhttp://www.uiowa.edu/obermann/obscenity/that gathers academics, civil liberties folks and artists. This will be really interesting to me! I head directly from Iowa City to Ft Lauderdale for ART EXPLOSION.

In March I will be performing 1001 BEDS in New York at PS 122. We will be creating a "hotel room" installation in a gallery that the audience will occupy as they lounge on couches and the bed while I perform right in their laps! I will have to watch that the PS 122 audience doesn't raid the mini-bar!
As an early Spring coming attraction, in May I will be in Birmingham UK directing a canal boat performance project for the Fierce Festival created with a group of gay men. This queer performance project exploring the canals as a site of queer memory-eros-connection gets more exciting to me every day. I am obsessed with canals. But then I live in Venice, California!
I just had a great first gig of the new year. Performed in Santa Ana . Kicked off the year in Orange County, CA at Rude Guerrilla theatre! Great piece in OC Weekly. Lovely packed shows. Nice way to start the year! http://www.ocweekly.com/culture/theater/ecce-homo/26495/
