GREEN WITH ENVY BURLESQUE!

THE VALENTINE YOU WISH YOU COULD HAVE!

Photo by Halston Bruce, flier by Muffihead

GREEN WITH ENVY BURLESQUE is a tribute to those who desire something more from Valentines day, those who wish the valentines colors were not red and pink but green and chartreuse. February is the green month in THE YEAR IN RAINBOW, every act in the show will deal with the color Green and the emotion of Envy! Even the cast makes you GREEN WITH ENVY; Miss Exotic 2006 World Julie Atlas Muz, visiting from the green cliffs of Seattle Miss Indigo Blue, Exotic World 2007 most Innovative Burlesque Nasty Canasta, Darlinda Just Darlinda and more greenery than your envious heart could desire!

A YEAR IN RAINBOW is burlesque performer Darlinda Just Darlinda’s foray into the “living art” milieu. From August 1, 2007 to August 1, 2008, Darlinda will explore the colors Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, and Purple both individually and together as a six-colored Rainbow. On even-numbered months (August, October, December, etc), Darlinda will wear a single color for the duration of the month, and produce a show inspired by that color. On odd-numbered months (September, November, January, etc) she will wear all rainbow every day.“A YEAR IN RAINBOW is about collaboration and exploring new mediums through color and human portrait,” says Darlinda, ” But it’s also an art/social experiment to see what kind of reactions I get from the public at large when I wear one color or rainbow for an entire year.” Darlinda will record her experience via daily photographs and journal entries on her website www.yearinrainbow.com.

A YEAR IN RAINBOW kicked off on August 1st, 2007, when Darlinda started her spectrum with the color Red. The first live performance of the A YEAR IN RAINBOW series was on August 20, 2007 at Galapagos Art Space, where Darlinda produced a show called “The Red Self-Centered exploring the powerful, generous, egotistical (yet inspiring) ways of the color red and those born under the astrological sign of Leo. October 12, 2007 was the “Orangeacle Oracle”, December 19, 2007 was the “Yellow! Blond! Invasion!”, and January 14, 2008 was the “Big Burlesque Rainbow Show!”
January has been dedicated to the Rainbow; The rest of the year will play out as follows; February: Green, March: Rainbow, April: Blue, May: Rainbow, June: Purple and July: Rainbow. A YEAR IN RAINBOW is inspired by Linda M. Montano’s “14 Years of Living Art”, via Morty Diamond’s “Year in Pink”.

ABOUT DARLINDA JUST DARLINDA
