The Law Project, Heather Gold's new interactive comedy

Sat, Jan 21 - Sun, Jan 22
8:00pm-10:00pm
FREE

Frustrated by the Alito hearings?
Wonder why no one in this Supreme Court conversation seems to be
saying anything direct or honest?


The Law Project, an open-source comedy.

My law degree is in my closet. I am not. Is the law what holds this
country together? Save $120,000 and three years, or just get a really
great and entertaining romp through the law skul experience as
Heather teaches and learns law with the audience.

More about Heather + The Law Project (www.subvert.com)

The incredible audience participation at her Internet Roasts at SxSW
helped inspire Heather Gold's debut open-source comedy "I Look Like
An Egg, but I Identify As A Cookie." Heather has baked almost 20,000
cookies with audiences in this incredibly successful show which ran
for over a year in San Francisco and will play Off-Broadway at Ars
Nova in February 2006. Cookie also won Best of the Bay from the
Oakland Tribune and Curve Magazine's National Lesbian Theatre Award.
Heather is proud to follow up "Cookie" with her newest work The Law
Project, which will debut its beta release at The Vortex Rep on March
13th and 14th.

My work aims to create live, intimate community by exploring
universal subjects that connect us. My interactive plays create
community through the performance: To use humor, personal
storytelling, and most of all the audience themselves to create a
deep sense of connection and inclusion. Unlike most stand-up comics
or audience participation shows, I never make comedy at the expense
of the audience. I create a space for them to shine.

The commons is shrinking quickly in this nation, with conversations,
academic and otherwise, happening more and more between folks who
already agree with each other, listening to more of what they already
think. Performance (and the law) have the opportunity to strengthen
bonds as they can bring people together who are different, or already
in disagreement.
