IN THE NAME OF THE FLESH @ THE CAMDEN FRINGE, 3-4 AUGUST
Ernesto Sarezale presents IN THE NAME OF THE FLESH http://www.sarezale.com/ITNOTF.html As part of the Camden Fringe at the Etcetera Theatre, 265 Camden High Street, London NW1 7BU 10.30pm, 3rd and 4th of August All tickets £7.50 Ticket booking 08444 77 1000 or www.ticketweb.com Ernesto Sarezale presents his own brand of 'erotic magic realism' in a captivating cabaret of words, video and burlesque. With oblique humour and surreal eroticism, Ernesto dissects the troubles and joys of the 'queer body' in the 21st century. We are introduced to a unique world populated by talking penises, detached navels, invisible lesbians, self-felating dwarves, sentimental pornstars, Eurovision anoraks, women without willies… Ernesto incorporates his own body, exposed and vulnerable, as an integral part of his live acts to explore the paradoxes and complexities of sexual intimacy, as well as the roles played by language and technology in our everyday perceptions of sexual identity and body image. In the flesh, on the flesh, in the name of the flesh...

GLAM SLAM! New York & London!
From Emanuel Xavier's blog: http://blog.myspace.com/emanuelxavierartist "Dear friends: As you may have already heard, after ten wonderful years, I am putting together THE HOUSE OF XAVIER'S ULTIMATE GLAM SLAM: Bowing Out After A Decade sponsored by HX on Wednesday, June 25 at Bowery Poetry Club. It has been a great journey launching the House of Xavier and creating the Glam Slam. I've learned a lot throughout the years and there are so many people to thank for supporting this event, especially Mother Diva Xavier, who always stood by me and hosted the competition. Ideally, I had wanted to bring together the NYC ballroom community and the slam poetry scene together for an event celebrating both cultures and hopefully providing another creative outlet. In an ambitious move, it was slated as an annual alternative queer arts contribution held during Gay Pride Week. It has struggled to remain relevant and survive during the last few years even while others tried to take credit for creating the event. Therefore, after many unnecessary challenges and before it simply fades, I am saying goodbye to something I have been truly proud of which has provided a genuine platform for many aspiring artists. This event has meant a lot, not only to those involved, but to many others who have admired it from afar. So it is my pleasure to announce that the Glam Slam event will continue to inspire a new generation of spoken word artists - albeit, in another continent. I have passed the reigns over with many blessings to Basque/Spanish performance poet, Ernesto Sarezale (http://sarezale.com/), who will be bringing the Glam Slam competition to the visionary chaps over in none other than London. THE GLAM SLAM (UK) will be making it's debut just one week after we close shop here in New York on Tuesday, July 1 at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern (http://www.myspace.com/glamslamuk). Here's to the Brits carrying the torch for another ten years! Drop by and say "Peace out!" on Wednesday, June 25th in NYC and, if possible, "Cheers!" on Tuesday, July 1st in London! Peace always, Emanuel Xavier
