Hi all,
Thanks for your patience with multiple emails. Just wanted to send out a reminder that "Eagle Woman Poems" will be at The VORTEX in exactly one week! It's tricky to get folks out on a Wednesday night; we need you!
Besides, I'm betting that you'll find the show your antidote to hump-day blues! Things are really starting to come together; this is like no other solo performance I've done before. The designs are all amazing. I can't wait to share, and to get feedback from everyone on this in-progress showing.
Hope to see you next week!
Natalie

I am afraid of eagle
But keep clutching at her.
Sometimes,
I want to rip this eagle from my neck.

an in-progress showing
July 21st, 8 p.m.
The Yard @ The VORTEX (outdoor stage)
$8 suggestion donation, none turned away for lack of funds
___
Eagle Woman Poems navigates the tensions and contradictions that arise for a young, queer, mixed-race Chicana, as she struggles to achieve independence from oppressive legacies of the past and interdependence in every sense - socially, economically, environmentally, politically, and personally. Executed in a surreal domestic landscape, the anthropomorphic character of Eagle Woman straddles the space between reality and myth, attempting rote domestic tasks while communing with ancient goddesses.
