How to Stay Bitter through the Happiest Times of your Life at Here Art's Center


Here presents Anita Libery in her new one woman show How to Stay Bitter through the Happiest Times of your Life at HERE Arts Center from the 7 - 25 Jun 2006

How to Stay Bitter through the Happiest Times of your Life: Humiliating her ex-boyfriend Mitchell in public was a perfectly satisfying career for Anita Liberty, but then she had to go and do something she swore never to do � she got over it. Then, to make matters worse, she fell blissfully in love. Now she has no reason to be angry. And that really pisses her off. Anita explains what it�s like when an angry performance poet finds herself perilously close to true happiness and has to cling desperately to her artistic edge.

How to Stay Bitter through the Happiest Times of your Life incorporates text and visual slides for set decoration and emphasis, in a style that echoes the graphic design elements found in her books.
