Stories in a Box by Magnús Logi Kristinsson

The artist is inside a large wooden box, and he is telling a story. A story about himself from his times in Iceland. He only shows one foot and one hand to the audience and with that hand, he give extra details to the story.

That’s Ok by Denis Romanovski
October 25, 2012 @ 8:00pm
Mercer Union | 1286 Bloor Street West, Toronto

That’s OK Manifesto (fragment) *written in collaboration with KKH students
To mean nothing – that’s OK.
To have money and to be hungry – that’s OK.
To do nothing under surveillance – that’s OK.
To wait for better times and to be still alive – that’s OK.
To hate museums and rebellions – that’s OK.
To sing for old people and to dance with strangers – that’s OK.
ETC.

Denis Romanovski will also be presenting guerilla performance in the form of a tour of the Toronto subway system on October 26. Check the festival website for details.

Presented in the context of the 7a*11d International Festival of Performance Art

Performance Yellow

This fragrance opens us to the question, has the show started? Its winter, the theatre is colder than the street and the room is filled with people and all their winter smells: wet faux leather, down, too much shampoo, and beer breath. The atmosphere is a trickster. Am I late, am I early?

Top Notes

yellow mandarin, mimosa

Middle Notes

honey, chamomile, salt

Base Notes

narcissus, guaiac wood, piss, beer
