    The Glitterbox Theater 210 W 8th St, Homestead, PA, United States

    How to Spot Counterfeit Beanie Babies (the "Furpile" video compendium) at the Glitterbox Theater This screening will include work by Jackie Blue, Lucie Cartwright, Jennifer Marie Cella, Cecelia Condit, flavushh, Jodie Mack, Eleanor McQueeney, Bea Orlandi, Tex Saber, and Mark Zubrovich (among others). More information about the show, including other ways to view these sculptors, is available here: https://whose.neocities.org We have used toys the same way for the length of human history. All that time, we have asked, what do these toys do when we're not playing with them? "How to Spot Counterfeit Beanie Babies" is a grey market VHS tape released in 1998. The tape itself is auxiliary to a speculative market surrounding Ty's line of Beanie Baby stuffed animals which, for a few short years, would demand price points in the thousands before abruptly cratering in value at the close of the 20th century. The tape was not produced by the Ty corporation, though it was permitted to use the company's branding off the books, as the point of the tape was to signify the value of the company to the niche set of whale investors who propped up the Beanie bubble in question. The Beanie bubble is […]

  • Pittsburgh Free Theater: Lughnasadh Performance at the Glitterbox Theater | July 31

    The Glitterbox Theater 210 W 8th St, Homestead, PA, United States

    Pittsburgh Free Theater: Lughnasadh Performance at the Glitterbox Theater | July 31 Borbo/Prism is an eponymous duo of artists. They hail from Bushwick, Brooklyn- famously memed for its colorful cast of characters- where they work extensively in the DIY experimental performance art scene. Prism’s (they/she) work is focused on visual storytelling, with a heavy reliance on folkloric imagery. Having come-of-age in the Appalachian countryside of Ohio, their works’ themes often reflect on the conflicting reality of tradition and personal identity. Prism practices mostly in the mediums of conventional “feminine craft” (sewing, embroidery, applique, textiles). They then force new meaning onto these heavily connotated mediums by enmeshing them with the performance art practices typically overrun with male artists (puppetry, noise music, clowning). Borbo (it/its) is a queer non-binary percussionist, performance artist, and noise clown. It draws inspiration from a wide range of genres, including psychedelia, free improvisation, and jazz-fusion. Anything it can strike, scrape or shake is a potential musical instrument - drum sets, found objects, toys, and self-made percussive sculptures are all fair game. Borbo has also been observed using live electronics and contact mics as an electro-acoustic tool to augment its percussive sonic palette. A natural buffoon since birth, […]
