The 2009 Philadelphia Live Arts Festival is scheduled to take place September 4-19. The festival is the ultimate presentation of preforming arts.  Nick Stuccio is the Festival’s Producing Director and is in charge of the selection process. There are approximately 15 acts selected to perform each year.

In conjunction with the Live Arts Festival is Philly Fringe. Philly Fringe allows unestablished artists to showcase thier work for professional production companies. This is the opportunity of the life time for performing artists trying to break into the industry.

Using your body as art is new to me. In the Arts Festival preview, words like “body sculpture” are used to describe some of the performances. The festival also feature interpretive dance and short plays. This is a totally different kind of are than I’m used to.
