CURRENT PROJECTS

Tableau Vivant Nouveau - A show directed & designed by Dicapria

Watch the Newly edited Video of the Show!

Dicapria's new endeavors have led her to form a production team with partner, Michael Pukac called "The Imaginary Light Bulb Factory".

The main focus of this group thus far has been to create a series of shows called "Tableau Vivant Nouveau". This live performance envolves paintings being brought to life through originally composed music, choreography, and puppet performance.

These Tableau's have been performed in formal gallery settings, underground theater, and a puppet festival in Florida. Currently, we are searching for more performance artists, venues, and producers to collaborate on future Tableau's in the Los Angeles area.

A brand new project called Tableau Vivant Nouveau: "Art Come to Life", featured two paintings actually coming to life through a scene designed to replicate the paintngs and also featured performance artists bringing the piece to life through music, song, dance, and puppetry. The shows were a great success and got reviews from the Sarasota Herald Tribune and Creative Loafing, as well as the cover image on Senses Magazine May 2007 issue.
