Worked today and came home to eat dinner and get ready for the show, yes New York vs London! Buya! It was a really awesome night, as cold as it was, it wasn’t to unpleasant to journey over to Green Point to a large club seemingly in the middle of nowhere. I sure was nervous, but when I got there, I knew a ton of people, Gabrielle, Nicole, Don, Murray, Dynasty, of course Scotty and the Animal Crackers! Then there were the Londoners, Kalki of Australia now lives in London, and I hadn’t seen her in years!! How wonderful.
I got to chatting with Marisa Carnesky; turns out, she has a magnet of me on her fridge! I didn’t even know there were magnets of me! Turns out she got at the Edinburgh theater fest at Dr. Sketchy’s! Anyway it was nice to chat with her and also inspiring to be around a ton of exciting performance artists.
After we won the “performance off”, we danced, and danced, and danced! I danced with Kalki and she’s tough to keep up with, she’s like a hummingbird! What fun!
We went for falafel at Oasis and who did we bump into, but La John Joseph and Legs Malone having returned from Dizzy at Galapagos Art Space. . .yes I feel blessed to be surrounded by such fabulous, inspiring, and entertaining people!
Well I left my camera at Tanya’s so I didn’t get any pictures, but there were tons of pictures taken. And fortunately for you, I know how to use youtube! So here’s the clip of our performance!
