Selected Performances Bags - 2008 5 bags on the floor all talking, wanting, needing, unrelenting. One is sexy, persuasive and boring! One say's harder harder! One says dance for me! One says I will die for you! One has a terrible cockney accent! These bags seem so familiar. DH blindly goes from bag to bag, looking for that special something. This peice includes an extended dance sequence and a Mic Jagger relive. live performance /audio Deep Feelings - 2007 Dynasty Handbag visits childhood sexual adventures but Dr. Phillis keeps inturrupting her process with criticism and bad advice. Along the journey meets an octopus with a knife, a lion who makes her vaccuum, Willie Nelson, a sweet sea horse, a passed out teen. live performance/video Shit Cake- 2007 w/Emily Gabler The first and only time DH works with another human onstage. DH is manipulated by a replica of herself into eating a delicious cake that is made out of shit. live performance Baby - 2006 Dynasty Handbag gives birth to an unwanted unruly baby represented by a plastic bag with a red light inside that flashes when it talks. The baby will not let Dynasty Handbag work, won't eat what Dynasty Handbag feeds it, has nightmares that will not let her mother rest, and is critical of her creative process. After a spastic brawl, the baby finally leaves on its own accord. Dynasty Handbag is free, yet still hears the echo of the baby's voice in the midst of trying desperately to live a normal life. DH takes a visit to the doctor, goes on a blind date, goes club dancing, has a dinner party attended by an annoying valley girl, a snotty art fag, a horny German, a diplomatic English matron. live performance/video Hell In A Handbag-2006 A journey through hell fashioned after Dante's Inferno, cept these levels are all self inflicted. Overindulge and addict yourself! Get into a knife fight with a girl gang, take a useless trip to the library. live performance/video PAST SHOW DATES 1/19/08 1/6/08 - 1/12/08 C'est Duckie, PS122, NY, NY 1/4/08, 1/5/08 Fresh Tracks, Dance Theater Workshop, NY, NY 12/8 Art Basel Miami Beach - Scope Art Fair 12/5 Art Basel Miami Beach - Rubell Collection 11/10 Joe's Pub/Ps1 w/ My Barbarian, Karen Finley, Nao Bustamante 11/20 PERFORMA07 Grand Finale at the Hudson Theater 10/26 Brooklyn Lycium Redykulous @ The Kitchen, NY, NY 10/19 CMJ @ The Knitting Factory 7/13 - 7/14 - HOTFEST @ Dixon Place, NY 7/27 Soloman Contemporary Gallery, Easthampton, NY 8/17 The Do Club, Brighton, UK 8/18 Paul and Simons Annual Garden Party, London 8/20 The Old Blue Last, London 8/24 Club Idyll, Stockholm, Sweden 9/13 Dixon Place, NYC 9/14 Dixon Place, NYC 9/20 Dixon Place, NYC 9/21 Dixon Place, NYC 9/28 Dixon Place, NYC 9/29 Dixon Place, NYC 10/7 Cakeshop w/Paradise Island, NYC 10/13 Club Motherfucker, London, UK, 10/15 Swansea, UK 11/10 Joe's Pub, NYC 7/13 - 7/14 - HOTFEST @ Dixon Place, NY 7/14 - "The Quiet Storm" @ OUTFEST, Los Angeles 5/6 - The Kitchen, NY, NY 6/1 - 6/2 - Avant Garde A-Rama, PS122, NY,NY 5/9 - Cakeshop, NY, NY 4/23 - Showcave Gallery, Los Angeles, CA 3/19 - SXSW Showcase - SHOW! 3/19 - Gay Bi Gay Gay PARTY! 3/17 - Todd P PARTY! 3/16 - Furniture Records PARTY! 3/4/07 - "Catch Series", Galapagos Art Space, Brooklyn, NY 2/23/07 - Brooklyn Academy of Music, Brooklyn, NY 2/16/07 - PANTYHO'S PARTY - Rockstar Bar, Brooklyn NY 2/7/07 - Monkeytown - Power Room, Brooklyn, NY 1/18/07 - Unisex Salon, The Delancy, NY, NY 1/14/07 - TAINT, Washington, DC 12/29/06 - "BABY" @ Galapagos Art Space, Brooklyn, NY 12/22/06 - "BABY" @ Galapagos Art Space, Brooklyn, NY 12/15/06 - "BABY" @ Galapagos Art Space, Brooklyn, NY 12/8/06 - "BABY" @ Galapagos Art Space, Brooklyn, NY 12/1/06 - "BABY" @ Galapagos Art Space, Brooklyn, NY 11/3/06 - Todd P show w/the Slits, Erase Errata, Brooklyn, NY 11/1/06 - CMJ showcase w/ the Slits, Knitting Factory, NY 10/7/06 - Charm City Kitty Club, Baltimore, MD 10/6/06 - Charm City Kitty Club, Baltimore, MD 10/2/06 - "Hell in A Handbag" - Vassar College 8/3/06 - "Hell in A Handbag" - HOTFEST @ Dixon Place, split bill w/ Faye Driscoll 8/3/06 - "Hell in A Handbag" - HOTFEST @ Dixon Place, split bill w/ Faye Driscoll 7/29/06 - "Hell in A Handbag" - HOTFEST @ Dixon Place, split bill w/ Faye Driscoll 7/28/06- "Hell in A Handbag" - HOTFEST @ Dixon Place, split bill w/ Faye Driscoll 6/30/06 - Hemlock Tavern, SF 6/23/o6 - Knitting Factory, w/Erase Errata, Telepathy, NY 6/18/06 - Miss LEZ Pageant, Knitting Factory, NY 4/3/06 - Vassar Colege w/Blowfly 4/2/06- "Hell in A Handbag" - PS122 split bill w/Nao Bustamante 4/1/06- "Hell in A Handbag" - PS122 split bill w/Nao Bustamante 3/31/06 - "Hell in A Handbag" - PS122 split bill w/Nao Bustamante 3/30/06 - "Hell in A Handbag" - PS122 split bill w/Nao Bustamante 3/10/06 - Galapagos Art Space w/Neal Medlyn 1/27/06 - Bottom of the Hill, SF w/the Gossip, Numbers 12/8, 12/15/05 - A MURRAY LITTLE CHRISTMAS, Mo Pitkins, NYC 11/15/05 - American Transstand, Canal Room, NYC 11/5/05 - MURRAY HILL SHOW, Mo Pitkin's, NYC 10/4/05 - Triple Creme record release party with Katastrophe, Tami Hart, Rothko NY 9/4/05 -'Stache...at 6's & 8's - NY,NY 9/7/05 - Book release party for Beth Lisick's "Everybody Into The Pool."
