This week encompasses the full spectrum, from cultural events about our history to contemporary dance, from al fresco art and music to a trio of film events (one celebrating the outdoors), two powerful examples of Iranian artists standing up to fundamentalist oppression, an exploration of what financially divides us, new and traditional theater, art from around the nation, plus with a variety of music that illustrates our shared humanity. There’s a lot to take in.
“Smosh” is the best word to describe this week’s selections. It’s a word I seem to have made up, but I like it. And it fits. See for yourself…
Beyond ceramics madness this week, there are other options a-plenty in music, theater, dance, comedy and Legos (yet another madness in its own). Fit these in and around Xavier and NKU b-ball games, or as a substitute if things get ugly – your choice!
This week is geared to the visual learners among us, with loads of art, film and theater to inhale. Feast on these…
Things always re-emerge slowly coming out of the New Year’s gate. If you’ve been holed up and are needing cultural sustenance, here are a few dandy suggestions. Happy New Year!
Dare we even say it? “Back to normal”? Ever since the COVID pandemic brought the 2019-20 performing arts season to a halt, we’ve been looking forward to the day when our musical organizations could resume a full schedule. Looks like we’re just about there, though none of us are likely to take the miracle of live performance for granted again. Let’s count our blessings.
Thanks to PR maven Chris Pinelo for pinch-hitting this week, with assistance from our intern Reed Cunningham. Read on to see what goodies they have chosen for you…
This is a bunched-up week with big bunches of events: a five-day festival, four days of dance and movies and the CSO, three theater openings, two movie double bills and a two-day symposium, plus one of J.S. Bach’s grandest compositions, capped off by the bigger than life Fran Lebowitz. Good luck keeping up…
Welcome to music week. Not sure why the scheduling gods saturated this week with melody, but what a treat ahead for your ears. And a few other gems, as well. Happy to highlight these for you.
If you can’t figure out what to do this week based on this overflowing buffet of events, well… (As my Swedish mother told me, it’s usually better to say nothing at all …) Whichever you choose, get out and experience something. (Mom will be happy, and I will too.)
