ALL MY LITTLE WORDS: A Performance Lecture on Art and Failure

April 8, 2023 @ 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm

$10 – $15

Im afraid of being an artist who doesnt make art.

In 2004 Ashley Hollingshead met Nate Harpel while they were both undergrads at Western Washington University. They became best friends and life long artistic collaborators…or that was the plan anyways.

In ALL MY LITTLE WORDS Ashley uses Nate’s unfinished graduate playwriting thesis as a jumping off point to explore the concepts of artistic failure, practice, and success. All the while examining their changing relationship with Nate and with their own artistic practice in this interactive performance/lecture/essay.

Ashley Hollingshead (they/them) is a director, performer, and collaborator currently living on the unceded lands of the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde/Portland, Or. They hold a MFA in European Devised Performance Practice from Columbia College Chicago. Their practice mashes up personal narrative, queer culture, and sweet dance moves made by a non-dancer body. In 2006 they graduated from WWU with BA in theatre and they are so excited to be bringing this piece to Bellingham!

Tickets available here: ALL MY LITTLE WORDS: A Performance Lecture on Art and Failure (bpt.me) and at the door.
