No Face Performance Group Presents THE BEAUTIFUL REFRIGERATOR IS EMPTY

Formed in 2007, No Face Performance Group has spent four years making a unique theatre from a wide variety of sources: obscure text, song old and new, avant-garde dance, and their own youtube-addled imaginations. Making their New Orleans debut, the company will participate in the New Orleans Fringe Festival with The Beautiful Refrigerator is Empty, a demonic drag cabaret exploring the operatic nature of teenage angst. Starring Teena Geist, a fourteen-year-old with a dark heart and even darker mascara, the show centers on the trials and tribulations of high school life. Discussing boys, bullies, and the urge to kill, Teena takes the audience on a journey into the deepest recesses of teenage depravity.

Seen in venues around Philadelphia and New York City, the show has been described as "provocative and unconventional", and "compelling". Featuring performer Mark McCloughan and live music by composer/musician Rosie Langabeer (both of whom have worked with the OBIE-award winning ensemble Pig Iron Theatre Company) along with live technical interventions by Spencer Sheridan (Lucidity Suitcase Intercontinental), the show is a wild ride deep into the dark heart of modern teenage life.

The Beautiful Refrigerator is Empty will be presented at The Aquarium Gallery, located at 934 Montegut Street, New Orleans, LA 70117.

Performances will take place November 16-19, 2011, at 11PM each evening.

Tickets to all performances are $8 (with a $3 Fringe button) and are available at the door in advance or at www.nofringe.org and Mardi Gras Zone. For more information, please call 651.210.2512 or visit www.nofaceperformance.org.
