REVIEW: The Crumb Trail
Oliver Paul Pan Pan Theatre’s The Crumb Trail is a neurotic little piece of theater that finds sources of anxiety everywhere: in fairy tales, in food, and especially in the internet. Pan Pan takes Hansel and Gretel as its starting point, a cautionary tale about two children whose parents abandon them in the woods. The […]

Small Metal Objects: “Everything Has Fucking Value.”
Jeff Busby Steve (Simon Laherty) is deep in an existential crisis brought on by thoughts of losing his friend Gary (Sonia Tueben) to a routine knee operation. Unfortunately, his crisis is standing in the way of a major deal. Without Steve nothing will move forward, but he’d rather stand in Pioneer Square trying to work […]

Kalup Linzy at the Works
Ian Goodrich I only caught a few of Kalup Linzy’s songs at the Works last night—didn’t grab me, and at the Works I need to be grabbed or it’s to the beer garden for me, I’m afraid. Linzy is the striking black man in a dress who graces quite a few of the TBA ads […]

Review: Crushing on Locust
Gabriel Bienzycki Zeke Keeble of locust The intersection between modern dance and hip-hop can be hard to traverse without diluting the energy of both forms. Fortunately Amy O’Neal, Zeke Keeble, and their Seattle-based dance company locust have been able to combine the more lyrical aesthetics of modern movement with the dynamics of funky club dancing […]

REVIEW: Sept. 7th, Daniel Barrow’s “Everytime I See Your Face I Cry” at Northwest Film Center
Courtesy of PICA’s image bank Daniel Barrow in a red button-up dress shirt, striped yellow-black tie, and plaid pants— he’s just skinny enough to squeeze behind his overhead projector which is wedged between two rows of seats on the floor of the Northwest Film Center. He preps for his performance of Everytime I See Your […]

I’ve Been Saved By the Sound of Michael’s Song
Kenneth Aaron I like that audiences at the Works will dance. Not only that, they’ll dance hard, and they won’t stop ‘til they get enough. Such was the case during last night’s thumping Afrobeat Tribute to Michael Jackson. I’m not sure why everyone would cringe when I’d mention “Afrobeat Tribute to Michael Jackson,” but I […]

TBA’s Labor Day Picnic
Here’s what you missed at today’s Labor Day Picnic at Washington High School: (When I complained about the lack of three-legged races, Mercury Food Editor Patrick Coleman—whose inner child apparently went to a Waldorf School—said, “But that would be competitive, see.” Snort.) You also missed picnicking, square dancing, produce sharing, hot dogs, and FREE PICKLE […]

Kinski/C.L.U.E. Live at the Works
Granted, the excellent trifecta of film, live music, and dance that was the Explode Into Colors/Janet Pants/Chris Hackett collaboration on Friday at the Works was a damn tough act to follow. Seattle psych/prog band Kinski’s performance with dance duo robbinschilds, video artist A.L. Steiner, and set creator A.J. Blanford traveled over similar ground last night […]
