GUADALUPE, the annual performance event about femininity, is back! This year we’ve got a new name, an expanded team, a new space, and an exciting lineup of works about femininity. This year's FEM features artists exploring women who are too loud for their surroundings, bursting from the constraints of time and creating imaginative "other" spaces.
There will be talking olives. There will be flying skirts. There will be medieval feminist rockstars.
FEM Line Up:
¤ Morgan Green and Sarah DeLappe, a playwright/director duo, will present Act One of Sarah’s play, Parabola, a triptych that follows one woman, one man, and one choragus of inanimate objects on a gonzo journey through gender and mass media.
¤ Franklin Barefoot, a choreographer, is working with two dancers on a piece commissioned by FEM about how we construct alternative realities.
¤ Grace McLean (pictured), a performer and composer, will show the beginnings of In The Green, a pop opera inspired by the 12th Century mystic Hildegard von Bingen.
Please note that there is limited seating at JACK, and we expect this event to sell out. At 8:30 pm, any unclaimed tickets will be released to a waiting list, should there be one.

Morgan Green is a Brooklyn-based director and co-founder of New Saloon theater collective. Recent credits include I’m Miserable but Changes Scares Me by Milo Cramer (New Saloon, The Brick), He Ate Quietly into the Wall by Ariel Stess (New Georges, New Ohio), William Shakespeare's Mom by Milo Cramer (New Saloon, The Brick and Ars Nova's ANTfest), Cooking to me is Poetry (New Saloon, Galapagos Art Space), and Talk to me Like the Rain by Tennessee Williams (Williamstown Theater Festival Workshop).

Grace McLean is a multi-hyphenate actress-composer-singer-writer-teacher. In addition to performing in Off-Broadway hits like Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812 and Bedbugs!!!, Grace also makes time for her acclaimed original music, both as a solo artist and with her band Grace McLean & Them Apples. With a sound that combines Regina Spektor's quirkiness, Nellie McKay's jazz sensibilities, Fiona Apple's irreverence, Kimbra's sass and Merrill Garbus of tUnE-yArDs' rhythm, McLean adds up to one beautiful weirdo. Grace’s work as a performer has taken her to Jamaica, Scotland, Italy, Croatia and Serbia. In New York, you can find her and her band at Joe’s Pub, Rockwood Music Hall, Ars Nova (where she developed the interactive concert experience Grace McLean: Lives in Concert), and the Museum of the American Indian, where she performed as part of a panel discussion on storytelling for The Economist’s 2012 Ideas Summit. McLean's pop opera In The Green (about 12th century German mystic Hildegard von Bingen) is currently in development. Grace is set to release her new EP in 2015, featuring the single, and her first feature video, “Natural Disaster". Make Me Breakfast, the 2012 EP from Grace McLean & Them Apples, is available on iTunes now. Find out more at www.gracemclean.com
