Here’s AllenInk’s video from the Works last night, Ethan Rose and Au.
Tonight at the Works, Occurance, hosted by Reggie Watts. Which I will be attending, because damned if I don’t love the guy, even though my critical confidence was shaken to the core this morning by an email from Watts’ co-producer informing me that my review of Transition was “unsuccessful in many ways–like most reviewers, [I] assumed that subjective generalities about [my] specific experience (and assumptions about the rest of the audience’s unknowable experience) would suffice as actual criticism.” I believe in the performing art world, that’s what’s known as a “burn.” Sigh. Anybody else catch Transition? Thoughts?
I hate performance art that’s so important you’re not allowed to criticize it. This is why TBA largely mostly pisses me off, and why Mike Daisey and Daniel Beaty are breaths of fresh air this year…
