NEW YORK NEO-FUTURISTS are pleased to present their first prime-time show of the decade in honor of the 30th Anniversary of Women's History Month, THE SOUP SHOW, written and performed by Desiree Burch, Cara Francis & Erica Livingston, directed by Lauren Sharpe. THE SOUP SHOW will be presented at HERE Arts Center (145 Avenue of the Americas NY, NY 10013). Performances begin Thursday, March 4th and continue through Saturday, March 27th. Opening Night is Thursday, March 4th (at 7 P.M.).

New York Neo-Futurists Desiree Burch, Cara Francis & Erica Livingston serve up a cure for what ails you in this Neo-Medicine Show, performing in and around a giant pot of self-made soup. Bottling this soup, as well as a series of elixirs, potions, tonics and products, they heal and reveal the female experience live, honest and in the flesh.

Incorporating ingredients from interviews, living newspaper, personal stories, circus acts and freak shows, the women of The Soup Show ultimately feed their audiences with a question "How far has the women's movement moved us?" The fierce trio honor the 30th Anniversary of Women's History Month, and show you why the readers of the Village Voice named The New York Neo-Futurists "The 2009 Best Performance Artists in New York."

ADVISORY: adult language and nudity.
