Creationizm: The Good (Comic) Book
At prior Creationizm events we've written a novel in one hour, group painted a huge canvas, created a multimedia installation... but tonight we draw, ink, color, and letter a whole comic book... from scratch (n sniff)!! Something that takes a year to do we will do in just two short hours tonight at HiChristina! Get all the satisfaction of a major accomplishment with twice the fun and none of the stress. Can't draw? Who cares! Come up with character dialogue or make action comic poses. There's a role for everyone tonight! Christina and Fritz guide you through Crash, Bang, Pow and comic contortionists Matt Mikas and Laura Lee Gulledge will make it all look wonderful.

8:00 - DOORS
8:30 - THE THREADS
An evolution of the lower east side staple LES Stiches, The Threads are fairly new to the scene. Don't let this fool you, though. These music industry vets deliver a distinctly amazing engergetic punk show not to be missed!
http://www.myspace.com/threads
9:30 - THE DIRTY SHAMES
Having been described as a cross between The Ramones and early Rolling Stones, The Dirty Shames have managed to stir up quite a buzz in and around New York City. Their frequent live appearances have helped build a following that transcends boundaries and brings people from varying scenes together for the love of rock n' roll.
http://www.myspace.com/thedirtyshames
10:30 - PRIMA DONNA
A five-man high-energy machine, Prima Donna has just returned from supporting Green Day the past 6 months in both Europe and Asia, and the band features Kevin Preston of Foxboro Hot Tubs (Green Day's side project). Clearly inspired by early punk groups such as X-Ray Spex, the Ramones, and the Sex Pistols as well as '70s glitter such as Mott the Hoople and David Bowie, the group's sharp n' concise songwriting sidesteps any notions of the group being "retro." These guys live it, all year 'round, on the road, in the studio, in the street.

Ray Bradbury in conversation with Sam Weller

In conversation with the electronic avatar of Ray Bradbury himself.
Sam Weller, critic journalist and biographer, has put together a hugely entertaining collection of his interviews with Ray Bradbury, the nonagenarian legend of American letters. To help launch the book Mr. Weller will be joining in person. Also "here", via the appropriately science fictional technology of Skype, will be the incredible Ray Bradbury himself. Bradbury will be talking with Weller and taking a few questions from our audience. This is a remarkable opportunity, one of the last, to see and speak with an author nearly all of us have grown up reading.
Space is limited so we do suggest that you come a bit early if you'd like a seat.

Underground Rebel Bingo Club / Secret Location / 7.9.10
The Underground Rebel Bingo Club is a secret gathering / dance party filled with glitter, spectacle, booze, drama, love, hate, prizes and… bingo.
Rebel Bingo was started by James Flames & Freddie Fortune in the basement of a disused Church Hall in the East End of London. These two nightlife gladiators wrestled bingo from the arthritic grips of old folks homes, and the sticky paws of summer camp. With blood, sweat and tears, they created a brand new form of bingo… a bingo that lives in the spirit of music, alcohol and mayhem. On June 11th, the madness is coming to NYC for the very first time. Do your homework, plan your outfit, and be there.

The Christina and Fritz LIVE-IN Installation +
Outrageous Hat Hair Experiences
This is the first ever TOTAL IMMERSION experience from HiChristina. Tonight enter a wacky new universe on Eldridge Street in the LES. On the other side of the tape, Christina and Fritz have created a living installation with lots of ready-made experiences. Choose a chair: the massage block, the hair cut stool, the confessional curtain, a tv-channel surfing chair, a get-served-a-drink chair, an exercise corner, and other stools for the bold or curious... Enter the room and peer from afar or don one of several different hats and cross through the looking glass! Be a servant, a piece of furniture, an uncle, a best friend, a grandma, or invisible: put on the hat with the role that fits your mood at the moment. Trade hats with new friends. Welcome to the fun- a surreal playhouse with Christina and Fritz. Christina wears the kitchen utensils while Fritz is in rainbow sparkler blue. A docent will be prepared to answer questions and point out interesting features. Experience life as Christina and Fritz- all sequins, all the time!
