Today's events are Adventures of the Love Art Lab by performance artist Annie Sprinkle and her partner Elizabeth Stephens, followed by a "sensual contortion" performance by Andreane Leclerc; and Slippery: An On-Ice Performance by Karen Sherman who looks at hockey and roller derby in exploring the role of gender in women's sports.
The
festival presents performers who come from Japan, Germany, and the
United States as well as Canada. There are also artists talks and
professional workshops, some of which are free.
The events take place at various locations, particularly Sala Rossa, La Centrale, Tangente and MainLine Theatre. The festival runs for the next two weeks.
