Mother Courage opens this weekend. It’s the show I’ve been waiting months for!! Mother Courage has long been one of my favorite play scripts, the monster of a thing… But I’ve never before seen it performed. I’ll be quite interested to see how this fairly young actress, Annie Enneking, performs in the role of crusty, old Courage.
It’s time for the Textile Center‘s very fabulous Artwear in Motion runway show–this year at the Bloomington Art Center.
And in light of last month’s music feature, it’d be foolish not to mention that it’s time for Nachito Herrera’s monthly gig at the Dakota.
And with that, I sign off until Tuesday a.m… I’m off to Chicago, where my name rests somewhere on the Chicago Marathon register. Given the unseemly conditions of both the weather forecast and my health, however, I’m not sure I’ll actually run the thing. I will, in any case, be away in Chicago… And what a pity it will be to miss the rare Monday on which there is a must-see: The Joan Jett concert at First Ave! I interviewed Joan–a friendly lady–for our October Straight Talk feature, and enjoyed all the chitchat about Sleater-Kinney, Bikini Kill, and other such hard-driving girl bands. This was the music I adored as a kid–along with that of Ms. Jett, of course.
