Project: Music Ensemble seeks Video Designer for live performances
by via NEohioPAL 19 Jul '15

19 Jul '15

Cleveland-based vocalist/composer seeks to partner with video designer to develop one-of-a-kind performance experiences for small venue audiences. Experience with or willingness to self-teach technology/automation will be needed; some lighting and/or costume design a plus. The music incorporates world percussion and psychedelia with odd-meter grooves and strong melodic frameworks, usually carried by affected vocalizations. A stylistic preference for experimentation, mystery and exotica is in common with precedents, Dead Can Dance and Peter Gabriel. Demos can be sampled at https://soundcloud.com/ococe/sets/thin-palace-demos While I have a few fundamental ideas to share as a starting point, I envision partnering with a designer on an ongoing basis, collaborating to forge the overall creative direction of the project. If the music sounds interesting to you, please contact me to discuss at brianlynnbacon(a)gmail.com. I have thoughtful, realistic goals and expectations. When I say I am looking for a partner, I am aware that talented people need some evidence of revenue return and that not everyone is willing to endlessly rehearse prog rock in a garage for free beer. Regards, Brian Bacon

Review of "A Streetcar Named Desire" at Mamai Theatre Company
by Bob Abelman via NEohioPAL 19 Jul '15

19 Jul '15

Mamaí’s ‘Streetcar’ is stellar despite understated STELLAAAA!!! Bob Abelman Cleveland Jewish News, The News Herald, The Morning Journal Member, International Association of Theatre Critics So iconic is the scream “Stella! STELLAAAA!!!” from Tennessee Williams’ 1948 Pulitzer Prize-winning play “A Streetcar Named Desire” that the highlight of each annual meeting of the Tennessee Williams/New Orleans Literary Festival is the “Stanley and Stella Kowalski Shouting Contest.” Affectionately known as the “Stell-off,” the competition reenacts the torrid scene early in the play in which working class Stanley – the brutish tormentor of his visiting Southern belle sister-in-law Blanche DuBois – remorsefully shouts for his pregnant wife Stella to return after she was slapped during his drunken tantrum. Judges use the raw, primal performance turned in by Marlon Brando during the show’s Broadway premiere and, more notably, in the classic 1951 film adaptation as their benchmark. Entire productions of the play can be similarly evaluated, for Stanley’s scream serves as an early indicator of an actor’s insight into this key character’s mindset, defines the tenor of his confrontations with the intrusive and deeply troubled Blanche, and gives shape to his relationship with the highly compromised Stella. It could be argued that the scream is also a viable barometer of a director’s approach to the emotional truths that lie between it and other outbursts. In the current Mamaí staging of “Streetcar,” Jason Kaufman’s scream is a comparatively understated affair that is more inebriated anger than agony and more hurt pride than passion. It seems inspired by Stanley’s want and desire rather than his need and desperation. And so does this production under Mitchell Fields’ direction For the rest of this review, go to www.clevelandjewishnews.com/columnists/
