Hamartia-Party-a: June 2014

The theme this June is Hamartia Party-a. What is your tragic flaw? Describe it, talk to it, fight it, celebrate it, or draw it nude like Leo DiCaprio to Kate Winslet in Titanic. Whether you translate it as sin, error, flaw, or "missing the mark," make a party out of your mistakes, misjudgments, and misanthropy. Oedipus had ignorance of his parentage, Medea had her volcanic wrath, Bette Midler is always using people as the wind beneath her wings, and Snoopy can be a holier-than-thou douche bag. Like a millennial on the jobs section of craigslist, Hamlet had his inability to decide or act. Like shoving a watermelon in a condom, Death of a Salesman's Willy Loman's soul is too big for this ordinary world. And cats are just soft, fur-covered razor blades. What's your tragic flaw? Write it, talk to it, juice it like a carrot. So how will you join the ministry of mistakes? Use the words "flacid," "ether," and "bargain bin."

Thursday, June 12th at 6:00pm (Potluck) and 7:00pm start.

Love,

The stars that have it out for you! muahaha!
