Shows to Go Ya

Gender, Sex, and Fabric

The problem of the skirt – at least the long, voluminous skirt, as demonstrated in Nicole Roerick’s Morose Beauty – is one of access. Designed for the ease of the other, not the wearer, the skirted woman paws at the fabric, twisting and groping like an injured dog at its cone. Read More | Comment »

Review: ASO With Quattro Mani

The rest of Austin may have been experiencing unseasonably cool temperatures, but inside Dell Hall last Friday night spring was in the air, as the Austin Symphony Orchestra brought forth the freshness and vitality in a pair of overtures by Beethoven, a prelude by Delius, and 21st century works by Paul Lansky and Graham Fitkin.

Tackling Football’s Dark Side

If baseball is America’s pastime, then football is her guilty pleasure. Sure, it’s thrilling. But it’s also really fucking violent. It encourages players to muscle through concussions, and it encourages them to hate. Colossal, the spectacular play premiering at the Cohen New Works Festival, tackles these skeletons head-on.

Voice for the Missing Women

Juárez: Once it made me think of drug cartels and illegal immigrants. Now I think of daughters and mothers, of hundreds of unsolved serial feminicidios and the MISSING WOMAN posters plastered across the city for two decades, thanks to the heartrending and absolutely essential The Women of Juárez at the Cohen New Works Festival.

Finding the Funny in Serious Music

Pssst! Wanna know a secret? Classical music can be funny. No kidding. All that symphonic stuff, thundered out with such gravitas in the concert hall, and the chamber music, so soberly earnest, can make you split the sides of your tuxedo coat – if it's being played by the right person. Or two persons, as in the case of Igudesman & Joo. Read More | Comment »
