Hi Katie, Writing to see if you’d be interested in “infiltrating” the Empire Revue for the November “Behind the Scenes” show. We’d have you attend a couple of rehearsals, and put you in a sketch, plus the closing song. We thought, if it’s cool with you and Motif, that this could be your dare for […]
Me: Mmmmm. That has a full-bodied sip. Vendor: Wow. How do you know so much about beer? Me: Well, I drink a lot of beer. Vendor: No you don’t. Me: Excuse me?” Vendor: There is no way you drink a lot of beer with that body. Well, I guess that guy caught me. My mission this month was to attend […]
Ob•liv•i•ous- not aware of, or not concerned about what is happening around one. My job as the DareMe girl is to bend your everyday expectations of normal. It is my pleasure to get your attention, make you think about things, make you laugh and sometimes point out a problem you didn’t know was there. My […]
If a person ran up to you in a panic and asked you what year it was, you’d respond, right? If you answered, “No,” you are one of the curmudgeons I was afraid of running into with my most recent dare. My mission this month? Run into businesses, ask someone for the year and then […]
It’s hard to describe just what’s going on when a Fluxus event takes place. We explored it in more depth with Shey Rivera, the organizer and instigator of this series of surreal experiences. At the Cock Fight edition, for example, there was the meditative, “What am I doing here,” experience of watching a woman in […]
Letting go of the fear and muscling through the pain was all part of being able to deliver Rice Krispie Treats with love. What is Valentine’s Day all about? Is it just a silly lovers’ holiday that revolves around chocolates, flowers and obnoxious displays of affection? That’s all good and fun, but it all had […]
There are two well-known traditions that come along with a new year, making a resolution and getting a midnight kiss. Resolutions have never really been my thing – I mean, they last maybe a week. The tradition of finding someone worth kissing when the clock strikes midnight is one I can get behind. My mission […]
By Katie Lewis This month’s dare took place in Providence’s newly renovated Arcade, which is located between Westminster Street and Waybossett Street and rumored to be haunted by the ghost of a shopkeeper who dwells on the third floor. My task: to dress as the ghost and haunt … I mean, visit … the new […]
Double Dare By Bachelorette #4The challenge: Sci-Fi Speed Dating. At RI Comic Con. Dressed as Slave Leia, which, as far as I’ve been told (by people outside of Comic Con), is one of those ultimate guy fantasies.First, some disclaimers: I am a total geek. I can out geek many guys (and gals) when put to […]
I received an interesting dare last week from a theater enthusiast. “I dare you to go to the Hope Street Farmers Market and first wear a happy mask and a then sad mask and see if people’s reactions are different.” I liked the idea, especially because those are my two favorite things — playing dress-up […]
