THEATER | At Bedlam, Four Humors prove that "Love is Blind...and Furry"

I see quite a few plays, but never have I heard someone laughing so hard that she actually cried out for help. At the Thursday night performance of Four HumorsLove is Blind...and Furry at Bedlam Theatre, the woman behind me was in such paroxysms that she pleaded for mercy, as though someone was tickling her. "Stop! Oh, Stop!"MORE »

MUSIC | Saul Williams and friends rock out before an unmoved audience at the Varsity

Saul Williams's "Niggy Tardust Experience" tour made a stop at the Varsity last Sunday, in a jam-packed roster of musicians from the Afro-Punk collective. The spoken word artist is touring in support of his 2007 album The Inevitable Rise and Fall of Niggy Tardust, for which he worked closely with Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails. The tour is a sampler of acts affiliated with Afro-Punk, a movement seeking to break black musicians out of the stereotypes the industry has placed on them. Such an ambitious cause is sure to find mixed results, as was the case with a skeptical predominantly white Midwest crowd, who didn't seem to understand what was going on for most of the night.MORE »

A couple of times in The House Can't Stand, Steve Epp's unnamed female character refers affectionately to the couch often occupied by her late husband: a charming but worn old thing that sags conspicuously in the middle where the man of the house formerly rested his corpulent frame. The whole show is a bit like that couch: it's hard not to feel tenderly towards, even though it sags in the middle under the weight of a grand historical allegory.MORE »
