This is a Call for PUPPETEERS and ANIMATORS (preferably of the manipulated object variety)
to become a part of Drunk Puppet Nite!!
Feb 1, 2, and 3, 2007 in the coolest new venue in Portland
Someday Lounge!!

We're opening up the Portland shows to all interested, up and down the coast, as far as you're willing to travel. (housing not provided, but a few couches can probably be found).
Some of you may not be familiar with Drunk Puppet Nite. It was started by a very hip group of artists in Seattle 7 years ago, and has been featured on Tears of Joy's stage for the last two. As the name implies, it is puppetry for adults, but unlike the name, these evenings of puppetry have been varied in style and content, but of generally high quality.

If you're interested, we're looking for performances of 2 - 15 minutes, which include puppetry, and your own wild and wacky, deep and probing, eccentric and electric way of presenting it. Film submissions also welcome. We will do our best to include as many proposals as possible, and you need not perform all three nights (let us know if you can not perform on any of the dates). Performers will receive a portion of ticket sales as financial stipend.
Our tech will provide basic sound and lighting, if your piece requires familiarity you should bring your own tech.

Come if you can to the Someday Open Stage at 8pm December 27th and January 3rd you can see the space and perform for the open mic audience. Please email Lana if you will be there on one of these nights so you can meet her when you arrive.

RSVP for Drunk Puppet Night by Friday Jan 5th to: lanashively@gmail.com

a. how many pieces you want to perform
b. the duration of your piece(s),
c. which of the three days you are available,
d. the general flavor of the work (for show continuity)
Please get back to me soon, email or call.
