We are compelled to create: to make, write, and birth. How do we manifest this deep desire? How do our creations—novels, babies, and atom bombs—affect our lives, our culture, and our planet? The Easter Island Project invites audiences to explore the questions through the act of creation itself with Plazm editor and 2GQ director Tiffany Lee Brown, as she prepares for an interdisciplinary art expedition to Easter Island in the South Pacific. Saturday evening’s performance and Sunday’s matinee will involve different creative experiences. Come to both shows and you’ll get a free bagel and coffee on Sunday. Cost: $10 See www.2GQ.org for more, or email easterislandproject at gmail.com The artist’s blog is here.

“Dante” a new play By Kaitlin Phillips | June 14th at 8:30 pm

The famed poet is penniless, miserable, and so uninspired he can barely write an advertising jingle. He could write again if only the woman he loves would return to him, but when she shows up with a surprising offer, Dante is forced to choose between abandoning the only good thing in his life and watching his one true love leave him forever.

Three Portland actors explore the questions of love, immortality, and why a brilliant poet can’t tell a decent joke in the World Premiere of a new play by Kaitlin Phillips, an exciting young playwright!

Via Chicago: An evening of films
June 17th 9pm

Lori Felker and Ben Popp both came from opposite sides of the country to obtain their masters degrees in film at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Lori remained to teach at the school while Ben moved back out west to Portland, OR to try his hand at the film scene there screening works in Filmed By Bike and the Portland Underground Film Fest. Lori contacted Ben about doing a show as she comes through town on a trip out west. They both came to Portland…”via Chicago”

Pippa Possible and Crispin Rosenkranz moved from Portland to Chicago in 2007. Pippa began attending the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, where she will receive her BFA in December 2009. Pippa is the Station Manager at FreeRadioSAIC, and focuses on the time-arts – video, audio and performance. Crispin recieved his BS in Speech Communications at Portland State University. Before transplanting to Chicago, he has been a dancer, performer and video artist in Portland for over twenty years. Crispin will begin his Graduate Studies at the school of the Art Institute of Chicago beginning in Fall 2009, in Film/Video/New Media.
