Welcome to ANT FEST 2009!

By the conclusion of last year’s inaugural ANT FEST, more than 175 artists had walked onto the Ars Nova stage.  Over thirty diverse night of new work, ANT FEST created a way for artists to get a foot in the door while introducing us all to fresh new talent.  The community forged was stellar and we were thrilled to continue developing a lot of the work here this year.

But enough reminiscing, we’re ready to do it all again! This year’s handpicked group will electrify you.  You’ll find everything from sketch comedy to crypto-zoology horror, indie rock to rockabilly, show tunes to Showgasm, magic, vaudeville and even an interpretive dance squad to wrap things up!  The stakes have been raised making ANT FEST 2009 THE CURE FOR THE COMMON FESTIVAL.

See you at the bar,

Jason Eagan
Artistic Director, Ars Nova
