Naked July 2012 is Coming Soon!

Plans are already underway for the immensely popular Naked July Festival at the National Pastime Theater, an annual event that features bold and exciting productions that explore new creative boundaries and challenge audience members to rethink their notions about the human experience. Performances for the Naked July 2012 Festival will be held from June 29-August 11 at the new location—941 W. Lawrence.

Jose Rivera's References to Salvador Dali Make Me Hot is the headliner for The National Pastime Theater's fourth annual Naked July: Art Stripped Down festival. NPT is an experimental theater company that pushes the bounds of live theater. This festival celebrates the human body in its most natural form. This year's theme is “Rising from the Embers”.

Returning to the Naked July Festival for another year is the Living Canvas ensemble under the artistic direction of Pete Guither.  For the past several years, audiences have been treated to some amazing performances as bold and talented nude dancers tell their story as they move gracefully across the stage bathed in a colorful kaleidoscope of projected images. The title of the 2012 production is The Living Canvas: Eureka.

Be sure to watch for new posts on the NPT web site and this blog in the weeks ahead for news about the 2012 Naked July Festival and a variety of events that will be scheduled as a part of the annual summer celebration.
