About this Item
"The tart" is a suspension play in "Jefferson's Birthday" which was produced at the Sunnyside Gardens Boxing Arena in Queensboro, New York. Higgins accepted John Cage's dictum very early that a performance work did not exist until it was performed. Thus, when his "Jefferson's Birthday/Postface" (1964) appeared, with Something Else Press, Higgins arranged to perform three of the works in it at Sunnyside Gardens Boxing Arena in Queens, New York. These sheets print the early revised version of the text, dated June 17th, 1962. It appears to lack the first sheet and thus provides 25 of the 30 short speeches of the play. Three mimeographed typed sheets on blue paper. Folded and taped for mailing. Stamped ÒRichard C. Higgins, 423 Broadway, New York 13, N.Y.Ó. Seller Inventory # 243
