Friday, June 08 9pm
West Village Theatre

HolyFRUIT! @ IGNITE! is a pop-up performance event featuring artists with various stories and journeys; Queer, Trans, Non-binary, LGBTQIA2++, racialized and other voices that have been marginalized and/or fucked over by the world.

Anything goes! Strut your stuff! This night will celebrate the diversity of our community and honour the many voices that for various reasons lack outlets to be seen and heard. It will also be an evening of community connection and sharing of insight. This night will be a safe, inclusive space for the passionate artist to express themselves and for you to enjoy respectfully.

CALL FOR ARTISTS: IGNITE! CLUB

Curated by Elaine Werysko

The IGNITE! Club Series will be an art party on June 09 a multi-disciplinary performance party // clashing together audience and artists in an exploratory, off-the-wall, never-before-seen, might-not-ever-be-seen-again: performance experiences.

The art club is place for new, experimental or inter-dis performance works. It is an opportunity for new ideas, experimentation in music, installations, one-on-one encounters, performance, movement, puppetry/mask, freakish, out of this world, interdisciplinary and the impossible that explode the idea of the LIVE.  The clubs create a platform for adventurous and interesting work in a low tech environment.

The Club Series is open to open to artists of all disciplines – music (solo & bands) performance art, installation art, roving performers, poetry, prose, music, comedy, burlesque, theatre, dance, media art & film, and absolutely anything else! This is an opportunity to perform, create or install your wildest ideas for an engaged and bizarre-hungry crowd.
