A nation doesn't much need a big President in tiny times, it needs one when the future is spitting out monsters.

Some Theatrical Perspective on Cultural Arts Surveys
Gender aside, the Barksdale Theater's Bruce Miller is the closest thing Richmond has to a diva of theater (by which I mean his passion for and longevity in Richmond's theater business is beyond impressive). So I recently paused to read a fairly lengthy piece that Miller posted at the Barksdale Buzz weblog about the Richmond Region Cultural Action Plan and its recent survey/assessment of the state of culture in the Richmond area. While not totally dismissing the value of reaching out the a broa

Eat, drink State of the City
Mayor Jerry Sanders gives his fourth (right? 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009—that makes four) State of the City address on Wednesday, Jan. 14 at 6 p.m. at the Balboa Theatre in Horton Plaza. That’s every good and well; we’re sure it’ll be fabulous and stuff. But, as added enticement, a handful of Gaslamp restaurants are offering special “State of the City” specials. How chilly is that? At Bandar, you receive 20 percent off your tab (with flyer); Confidential’s extending its half-off glad hour until 8 p.m. S o

7 Things Meme…
Typical, you don’t receive memed for ages, and then two show up at the same time. Mind you, I’m not complaining as I’m still working on a longer post that I can put out tomorrow… I’ve been asked by Mr Stucke, and Joe Wilson to share 7 things you may not know about me, so in no particular order: 1 - I failed Higher English at school. Twice. This was not the disaster it might have been as it prevented me going to University at a time when I was far too immature and undisciplined. Now that I’ve got my

More Thoughts On Meaning
From Matt Freeman and 99Seats. Check 'em both out. I already posted a comment over at Matt's place but his piece has got me thinking a lot and has me posing some questions of meself, so I thought I'd focus in on the bit he's talking about that raises them for me. Matt gives us a poem he loves and a picture he loves and discusses how focusing on the meaning of the poem and the picture are beside the point. He then discusses a play of his (which I have neither read nor heard, so none of what I'

Don’t call me a muppet
Don’t call me a muppet Muppets. Marionettes. Shadow puppets. Glove, finger, blacklight. You’re immediately expecting this to be about some other country don’t you? Puppets in Australia? Not likely. So I’m betting that if I told you Australia had a strong and vibrant puppetry industry, you’d probably not believe me. But we do. When I talk to people, even in the professional theatre scene here in Melbourne, they’re always surprised to realise that there are puppet makers and performers in Austra
