Well, I had a very busy day Friday, running from one show to the next, from 2 in the afternoon till almost midnight. (I could have caught a midnight show, but I was exhausted--in a good way!) Of course, this was only a tiny sample of the performances that day. But I have many days to see more shows!
Here is a shot from "Rubber", one of the wonderful dances in Shawn Short's program "Human", running at the Atlas Performing Arts Center. The Lang Theater there is a really nice hall!
Here is Mara Neimanis and her aeronautical sculpture/set for "Air Heart". It's an acrobatic tribute to Amelia Earhart at the Scientarium, a space specially creted for the Fringe Festival on D Street NW.
This is one of many tense scenes in "The Lesbian & the Flying Pig", a play at Flashpoint/Mead Theater Lab. Among other issues, it addresses America's drift to the far right, foretelling a virtual theocracy created under an ongoing dynasty of Bush presidencies.
This is a young elephant being attacked by jackals, and you will understand if you go see Callie Kimball's "Nutshell", performed by the DC Dollies & Rocket Bitch Revue at the Wooly Mammoth Main Stage.
Here are some of the Weerd Sisters & their amazing musical accompanists performing "Works for the Living" at the Warehouse Main Stage. I was wondering if Diana Tokaji, the choreographer seen here dancing in the center, might follow this up with "Works for the Dead." Just an idea...To see a few more pictures from these shows, go to my web gallery at: http://paulgillis.phanfare.com/album/338390
