Drella & Catch!
Company:
The Invisible Dog Art Center
Dear Friends,
This may find you focused on the end of the month and the end of 2013. You may be wishing for a special holiday gift or big change in 2014. Our wish is that you receive everything you desire during this magical season. But take a pause with us, and let the present be present enough this week.
We have three festive programs to offer you: the premier of Raja Feather Kelly's performance about drag, gender, and of course, Andy Warhol; CATCH 59! featuring performers across disciplines and career levels; and the continuation of the holiday artisan market.
This also marks the last two weeks to make a tax deductible contribution before 2014 - help us give artists the gift of opportunity so they can share their work with you all year long. Click here to support us now for the rest of the 5th Season.
As expectation and stress mount with the holidays, count on the Invisible Dog as a place to celebrate and enjoy.

DANCE
DECEMBER 12 & 13 - 7.30PM
THE FEATH3RD THEORY PRESENTS:ANDY WARHOL'S DRELLA [I LOVE YOU FAYE DRISCOLL]
In his vogue-ballet, Kelly creates a surreal world; a gender-bending, race-shifting, multi-medium "artsploitation" in response to today's consumer culture, and celebrity worship. It is the latest in the choreographer's Warhol-driven series leading to a final staging of the feath3r theory presents: Who's afraid of Andy Warhol?"

FRIENDS WE LOVE
NEW MUSEUM. Performance archives seek to preserve some legible record of live art's imprint on culture for future study; however, many argue that archived representations of performance cannot fully capture the nuances of ephemeral experience so essential to the form. Projects by a canary torsi, Jennifer Monson, Julie Tolentino, and Sara Wookey
