LUCKYCHAOS THEATER PROJECTS KICKS OFF 2013 SEASON WITH A TALKSHOW AND MIXER

JANUARY 11, 8PM AT SALVAGE VANGUARD THEATER

Includes a performance by Daxun Zhang – double-bassist who’s toured with YoYo Ma

LuckyChaos Theater Projects kicks off its 2013 season with Let’s Talk followed by a mixer at Salvage Vanguard Theater.  Let’s Talk is a fun ‘Talk and Show’ where we chat with our guests and catch a glimpse of the person behind the art, and then they will treat us to a sample of their work.   Come join us and talk to our guests after in the Meet&Greet, and stay for the LuckyChaos kickoff Mixer! 

Guests are:

DaXun Zhang is a double-bassist who’s toured with YoYo Ma, the celebrated cellist.  Daxun has won numerous international awards as well as performed extensively with prominent orchestras nationally and internationally.  “If the bass is finally to produce a headliner, the instrument can have no better champion than Zhang,” (The Washington Post, March 2005)   Daxun has graciously agreed to perform some of his favorite pieces!

Yen Tan, previously featured on the frontpage of the Austin Chronicle, is a professional graphic designer who designs the most kickass and sought-after posters. His newest feature film, Pit Stop, is premiering in the prestigious Sundance Film Festival in 2013.  


Beili Liu is a multidisciplinary artist who specializes in time and process based installations using materials ranging from thread, paper, incense, wood, salt to water. She has exhibited extensively both nationally and internationally.  Her art is “materially simple but metaphorically rich” (Art in America Review, April 2009).  


Anuradha Naimpally has been performing worldwide for over 30 years.and is widely respected as a performer and teacher of the Classical Indian dance technique Bharata Natyam.  She has received awards and accolades nationally and internationally.  We will be treated to a sample of this expressive and vibrant artform.  

Jingqun Shao 邵敬群 is a master teacher of the classical Chinese instrument Guzheng.  She’s dedicated over 40 years to this instrument, studying under the tutelage of prominent masters in China and in later years, performing and teaching around the world.  Her students have won awards and she’s developed over the years, her own signature style of playing.  Come for this rare opportunity to see her perform a piece for us.
