it’s $12 in advance, $15 at the door, and $40 for the 4 day pass…

also, we are only allowed 50 people in the venue at one time (including the performers, technical director, etc.) so that means tix will go fast and we might be sold out.

“…He’s wonderful and hilarious and knows exactly what it’s all about and has earned my undying respect. What he’s doing is impossible, and he knows it. That’s good art….” L.A. Weekly

“Merging improv, erotica, entertainment, religion and ritual, Frank Moore – self-styled shaman, world-renowned disabled performance artist, and 2008 presidential candidate ….” – East Bay Express

Resisting “the easy and superficial descriptions…, Moore’s work challenges the consensus view more strongly in ways less acceptable than…angry tirades and bitter attacks on consumer culture.” Chicago New City

“If performance art has a radical edge, it has to be Frank Moore.” Cleveland Edition

“Transformative…” Moore “is thwarting nature in an astonishing manner, and is fusing art, ritual and religion in ways the Eurocentric world has only dim memories of. Espousing a kind of paganism without bite and aggression, Frank Moore is indeed worth watching.” High Performance Magazine

“Surely wonderful and mind-goosing experience.” L.A. Reader

Dinner Party at Lee’s!

Hi Frank,

Getting back to you with this report from my party. Also, want to let you know I’m sorry I will be missing the Reality Playings next weekend. I had made plans to leave town. Hope to make it to the next one. Do you have a date set for it yet?

The party here went very sweetly…. 15 people showed up…. with just 5 days notice! That was kinda perfect for the amount of cushy space I could set up. There were five men and 10 women, well one being an M to F trans woman. Two people I didn’t know were brought by friends I did know. There was a little bit of lively political debate with my young Irish friend engaging people in his characteristic abrasive style, that can be pretty caustic but at the same time mostly charming, I think. Mostly people gelled really well and cuddled for hours. And ate….

It was really a trip for me to have all these people from disparate strands of my life weaving together with touch and conversation.

LoveLEE

RE: Goings On

(Frank Moore wrote:)

thanks, Harley! We should have submitted also Friday’s performance in Oakland where I will be a guest vocal cords in the Los Angeles band MAGIKAL ORCHIDS. Actually this is a crazy busy week. We did three SHAMAN’S DEN shows [actually a fourth guest cancelled] and now these two back-to-back performances! We may die!

* * * * *

You may not. Not without my permission which I shall never grant. Harley

mmmmmm… There are a lot of people denying me their permission!
