An ‘availabilist’ performance art installation investigating intimacy, shame and the blessed beast of huge love.
A sequence of interactive games, symbiotic rituals and swell treats traveling through the theater space.
This show is the completion of an AIRspace Residency
part of the ongoing project Teaching Myself to Love
(unfortunately not wheelchair accessible)
Prove You’re Not a Robot is a lo-tech performance art installation collaborative conspiracy between Sadie Lune and Lula Mae Day. An investigation into mutual and consensual revelation; we’ll share an evolving succession of explicit playground games, expository interviews, improvisational trances and of course, treats.
Using the ‘availabilist’ aesthetic of found objects from everyday life, the whole rigmarole will snake through the physical space of the Garage theater as it progressively delves deeper into the artists’ manifestations of curiosity, vulnerability, neurosis, transcendence, and ultimately the blessed beast of huge love.
Take a trip with us through five layers of mutating dynamics between artist and audience, from spectacle to choose your own adventure. Wander through the dissonance of exterior perceptions and interior landscapes. Hold our hands while we pull the covers off of shame, sexuality, and faith. Roll up your sleeves while we grapple with depression, hypocrisy, and intimacy. Prepare for a catch and release while we try to get a handle on time, boundaries, and compassion.

For weeks before the public performance the artists will engage in multifaceted symbiotic ritual focusing on practices of commitment including cohabitation, sober altered states, physical attachment and co-dependent sensory deprivation, you know, the works.
