We, the citizens of Rhode Island, associate ourselves for the purpose of providing a local forum and home for the arts, through the maintenance of residential and work studios, galleries, performance and educational spaces. Exhibitions and performances in the forum will be unjuried, uncensored and open to the general public. Our facilities and services are made available to all artists who need a place to exhibit, perform, or create their original artwork, especially those who cannot obtain space to exhibit or perform from traditional sources because of financial or other limitations.

Perishable Theater Heats Things Up and Keeps You Cool at Foo Fest!

BonnieDivesMail.JPG That's right, team. Lest you have trouble justifying the expenditure of $5 to experience a made from scratch video arcade, interactive art installations, all your favorite Providence vendors, and 22 of the most dazzling, endearing, terrifying, and booty-shaking bands Rhode Island has to offer, Perishable Theater has found a way to sweeten the deal. Admission to Foo Fest grants you free access to both 3:00 and 8:00 performances of "Poste Restante: The Post Office Never Looked So Sexy." Step off of the midway and into Perishable's air-conditioned haven for a multi-media menagerie that begs the following:
"What will The Secret Agents do with an anonymous package, cardboard box bikinis, a few handwritten letters, a bicycle with wings, and one mysterious vinyl record? Could it possibly involve inanimate object domination, acrobatic knots, full-throttle origami and a cocoa pop?"
Could it, indeed!?!?
"In this show, Tim and Bonnie will immerse you into simply constructed worlds that distort the grand themes of time, scale, and reality. Short segments of video, acrobatics, puppetry, and theatre flow into one another and spin together touching moments with humorous ones. Tim and Bonnie's movement has been called 'Breathtakingly simple.' There is something for everyone at a Secret Agents show."
And, how. Add this to the list in the letter you write to your future grandchildren about why August 15, 2009, was the greatest day of your life!
