Sideshow Fringe Festval!
I have been graciously accepted into a wonderful new festival: the Sideshow Fringe Festival, Nashville's Progressive Performing Arts Event . . . An arts extravaganza connecting innovative artists with adventurous audiences!!
My project is called, Octopus Lament. Octopus Lament incorporates costuming, poetry, music composition, and performance. I wrote a poem that is being performed as spoken word on top of a beautiful piece of music composed by Jin-Hwa Choi. Megan Kelley stars as the octopus in a wonderfully whimsical and dark, eight-legged fabric get-up; with make-up by the incomparable Jackie Osborne.
The folks over at Actor's Bridge have worked super-hard to make this event possible . . . And, I would love for you all to come out and support this fantastic 4-day event!
The schedule of performances can be found here. I encourage you to take advantage of the weekend: see as many shows as possible!
Here are the particulars for Octopus Lament:

STATE FAIR
Houston Fine Arts Fair: Saturday, September 17, 12-6pm
Texas Contemporary Fair: Saturday, October 22, 12-6pm
State Fair is a public spectacle that takes as its inspiration the construct of a contemporary art fair and merges it with the age-old tradition of street peddling. Organized to coincide Houston’s first-ever public art fairs, The Houston Fine Art Fair in September and the Texas Contemporary in October, State Fair is an arts-centric trade show with a twist in which artists from around the state will inhabit the gallery with public projects that explore the notion of street commerce, underground exchange, and alternate economies that defy the strictures of the commercial art economy. Prepare to be dazzled!
