Performing in Denver Tuesday August 7th at Invisible City

Posted on August 4, 2018 by Lisa_Natoli

Lisa_InvisibleCity_Flyer02Some Animals Are Easily Startled
Where: Invisible City (1545 Julian St, Denver, CO 80204)
Time: 7:30pm doors at 7pm
https://www.facebook.com/events/510014166085251/
Rainbow Militia and Invisible City are thrilled to host Lisa Natoli for a performance of her new show “Some Animals are Easily Startled,” a staged reading of a solo involving other people. An artist talk back will follow the performance.

This evening questions what is it to make and view work in the current social climate, with all the baggage we carry. Lisa’s work is subtle with a raw sense of humor and a volatile sense of being.

Lisa is returning to Denver after spending over a year in Minneapolis where she was head aerial instructor at ExperTease Fitness and performed with Black Hearts Burlesque and Elektra Cute Presents and at The Minnsky Theater. She will be retuning to MSP in October to present a collaborative rope piece with Elizabeth Munn at The Minneapolis Burlesque Festival. Lisa worked with Spiegelworld and Steven Hoggett at St. Ann’s Warehouse in Brooklyn (2017), Drumming: A Group Hallucination at House of Yes (2017) and has been presenting solo and ensemble work in NYC for over 10 years and is a regular performer in the NYC cabaret scene making appearances at the Slipper Room, Galapagos Art Space, Coney Island USA, House of Yes, and Dixon Place.
Suggested Donation of $20 at the door, no one turned away.
(Cash, Venmo, or Credit Card)

Saturday June 23rd
Cross Pollination (silks/rope) 2:30-4pm

Circus Warehouse

Tuesday June 26th
Research and Destroy (silks/rope) 10:30am- 12:30pm
This class is for aerialists withe experience who want to broaden their boundaries and identify habits, assumptions, and expectations in their artistic practice. We will work toward creating a coherent, thinking body by building awareness using technique and skills collected through research and experience. We will integrate transition and “tricks” into sequences to become better technicians and performing artists being mindful of the question “what are we choosing/drawing from and why?”

This is a new rope act that is still finding its feet. It is a more interactive piece than my other pieces. The narrative tells a back story of some of the other pieces I have made and evolved over the years. “Some Animal Are Easily Startled” Photos by Upper Boundary Photography. Minneapolis, MN

Dapper Fella Photos from Elektra Cute Presents Pink & White Ball

Posted on May 17, 2018 by Lisa_Natoli

A couple pictures taken by the amazing Dapper Fella at The Lab Theater for Elektra Cute presents the 2nd annual Pink & White Ball for Planned Parenthood. The piece I performed was one of my oldest rope acts. I had to re-arrange it and start in silence to accommodate the    height of the theater.
