   Mad King Thomas's Blurbs
About me:
Our current scheme involves getting a venue in Melbourne, Australia where Tara can perform her brand-new solo sometime between June 23 and June 30. Can you assist us in any way?! We make dances. We make performances we like to call dances. We make jokes. We constantly try to one-up ourselves.
Study for Premium White Morsels
..

The Mad King Himself says:

I am the emblem of dances made. I am the name, I am the man. It is me you want to know. I am three in one like the Catholic God; I am a three-fer like the deal your Jewish grandmother got. I am the maid, the mother and the crone; I am me, myself, and I.

I have tannish brown curly hair (color from Tara "King-Size" King, texture from Theresa "Fun-Size" Madaus), tan skin (????) and very flexible hips (Monica "Clever Thomas" Thomas). I ride a unicorn. I ride my unicorn in the buff. I dream of ninjas disguised as unicorns.

I can be reached madkingthomas at gmail dot com. Send me my mythologies, send me my portraits, send me your fealty. I will feast on it all.

Who I'd like to meet:
People who live in Melbourne, Australia, and want to help us perform there, other choreographers, people who want to see our dances, people who want to help us move our furniture on and off stage, people who want to tell us what they think about dance, people who want to take pictures of us, people who want to eat soup with us.

Thanks for the add. Excerpted from All is Fair so Stop the War
by J. Otis Powell! Three:
She's vulnerable to an evil that defies analysis.
She turns her anger against herself.
Figuring out how to survive in such an ethos
& how to cultivate a sense of self is what motivates her.
How to unleash the secrets, without being devoured
is the fuel for her resistance.
She might be suicidal without her resistance
& too much of her has died already.

She wants to leave evidence that She was here
& that She didn't bleed suffer & die unknown, oppressed,
& anonymous.
The drama She's in has grown tired, the dark edges are bitter, poison; imitations of worn out fantasies blur
& too many clichés carry a virus.
Somehow She must learn to cultivate this solitude.
She can no longer sit; She's up!
She's out among us tattoos Vs in the air.
She's dancing out of her constrictions among cowards,
thieves & villains.
She's dancing to meet new appointments & other dimensions She's living in an organism of a new self awareness.
She flows like lava now determined to be more than on time
but to be authentic in it.
Megan

Aargh! Stupid Work. Wish I could see you perform again on Tuesday. All the best and maybe next time you could do a breakfast show?
Scott





Feb 11 2007 11:32 PM

You've done it again! Your dance was irreverent, hilarious, artistic and beautiful. I don't know how you afforded those super expensive costumes (which looked great, by the way.) Congratulations! If I, too, didn't hate Valentine's Day, I'd want you all to be my valentines.
