Your Daily Dose Of Round-Up
And much love from Toby Zinman, in Inquirer mode, for 4.48 Psychosis [Brow wipe. Exeunt.] --Nicholas Gilewicz [More]
Tonight: Launching "8"

Live Arts co-presents a concert by jazz composer and pianist Vijay Iyer at Eastern State Penitentiary, where he will play within the art installation Release, for which Iyer created the music and Bill Morrison created the film from found footage of Al Capone's release. [More]
FREEDOM CLUB
FREEDOM CLUB
New Paradise Laboratories & The Riot Group
Funny, lyrical, and provocative - and spanning a century and a half-this theatrical collaboration examines separatist cults from the assassination of Abraham Lincoln to a dissolving band of washed up wannabe extremists in 2012. [More]
