What's Your Animal?

We try to include every worthy Seattle arts event in our calendars, but some span too many categories to list as a single entity. So it is with What's Your Animal!, which will be held tomorrow night (Tues.) at Northwest Film Forum. Presented by Left Field Revival, the event promises "an eclectic mix of Seattle dance/sound/video artists." What's Left Field Revival? A dance company founded by Heather Budd and Jody Kuehner. And what do they and their friends have in mind? "This evening will showcase multiple disciplines and styles of performance including music, random acts of poetry, animal transformations and films exploring the center of our planet."

Animal transformations? Is that like asking what's someone's spirit animal? Or playing bar games of which animal would win in a fight (e.g., gorilla versus kitten)? We have no idea, but an impressive roster of local talent for the evening includes: Bandylegs Johnson, The Big Brass Band, Doug Nufer, Ricki Mason, the Straw Gods, Henri and Jed Dunkerly, Christiana Axleson, Tony Dattilo, Amanda Allen, Phillip Heier, and Heather Budd.

In addition to being a performance/party event, the evening also benefits Left Field Revival. We're guessing you should leave your panda costume at home.
