FREE ART FOR THE PEOPLE

Opened on February 20, 2010 | Contact Petition Author

This petition was created to bring awareness to the necessity of artist jobs while maintaing FREE public art.  With your signatures we can further raise sponsorship for artists to survive and thrive.

On April 22nd & 23rd of 2010, Post Fact Productions & The Standard Downtown Los Angeles will produce a FREE experimental opera at the historic Million Dollar Theater on Broadway.  Through corporate sponsorship and with the official support of The Los Angeles City initiative Bringing Back Broadway we will provide employment to 40+ artists and revitalize the historic Broadway corridor by complementing and connecting new large-scale downtown entertainment and cultural destinations, as well as galleries, restaurants, and cultural activities throughout Downtown.

Beginning in Los Angeles, each year Post Fact Productions will travel to a new American Metropolis and produce a play featuring the city’s ground-breaking musicians, dancers, visual artists, composers, light and sound designers. We will present the play celebrating the city’s unique culture at no cost to its people. Each member of the cast and production will be compensated but the play will have no admittance charge.  Not only will sponsors support the arts, they will also provide temporary jobs by hiring builders, educators, musicians, choreographers and artists for the production.

NEW., the twisted tale of two post-apocalyptic neon socialites, features an all-star cast of talented musicians, dancers and actors. Original composition and performances by Anna Oxygen, Aska Matsumiya, Mecca Andrews, Ariana Delawari, Amanda Jo Williams, Featherbeard, Satya Bhabha, members of The LA Ladies Choir, KP Thomas of Spindrift, Max Guirand, Oliwa of The Pleasure Circus Band, Nicole Disson, Rachel Kolar & Lauren Brown.  Choreography by Mecca Andrews, Costumes by Miss KK, Set Design by NY Painter Milo Reice, Lighting Design by Nicholas Amato & Ad Art by Alia Penner.
