Announcing: Sharp Tank Episodes 1-3
SO EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE
even though it's also very chill
SHARP TANK
3 nights of casual works-in-progress + conversation
featuring a lineup of Chicago artists across disciplines
with your host Nora Sharp
Thursdays 8/31, 9/14, and 9/21
doors at 6:45, show at 7pm
bim bom studios, 5226 W. Belmont, Chicago
FREE w/ donations gratefully accepted
vibe is: low stakes / high investment / minimum viable WIP / let's take it in and then let's talk about it / we need spaces to workshop our work earlier and oftener and without huge barriers to entry (aka nothing at all like Shark Tank)
*** different lineup every night ***
w/ special visitations from guest movers and shakers
I'll be performing an excerpt of my solo-in-progress each night alongside fellow artists:
Episode 1, 8/31: Bindu Poroori + Lichen Bouboushian + Aviva Jaye + Nora Sharp
w/ Special Visitation from Charlotte Long
Episode 2, 9/14: Christina Chammas/Ali Claiborne-Naranjo + Candy + Nora Sharp
