Okay.. I took this picture back in 1997 (amazing what you find when rooting through old pictures) with a crappy pocket camera (film). I am not trying to be a wise ass with photoshop.. that is truly what the sign said. It stayed that way for almost two months, then they replaced it with a bigger sign that had no indivual lights. ps. those two evil eyes in the back of the truck belong to my killer pooch.
Brac & Flint. Every comedy duo has to have a straight guy and a comedian. I think you can tell who's who here. :-)

Paramount Comedy is a channel that broadcasts on Sky TV. Like many other satellite channels, it used to have a full working set of teletext information pages, including TV listings and an irreverent viewer feedback page. Now, the pages are no longer updated but still exist in a form untouched since they couldn't be bothered with the service any more. Included in these are some rather interesting technical and humorous pages, such as ones depicting cats and penguins.
The main performer all weekend was Max Amini in from the United States, perhaps a little shocked here by flying into a winter cold snap (he's from Los Angeles)
Back to photos from the comedy show last weekend...
The Fairborn Theatre was built in 1948. The Fairborn added to the National Register as an example of the streamlined Art Moderne style architecture. Designed for Chakeres Theatres by Lloyd Zeller and Herman Hunter. The Fairborn is located near Wright Patterson Air Force Base, Dayton, Ohio. The marquee features a neon mask that alternates comedy and tragedy when lit.

Persona. Simone’s Body
Director: Krystian Lupa
The scandal that accompanied the premiere production (One of the actresses, Joanna Szczepkowska, rebelled against the director, showed her naked buttocks to the spectators, made a Nazi greeting gesture, and later long explored the meanings of this performance in the media), somehow overshadowed somehow the intentions of Krystian Lupa. And yet Simone’s Body is the second part of the Persona diptych. The play opens in the same space as the previous part: this time the sound stage, where Marilyn Monroe took shelter from the world, plays the role of the rehearsal stage, where a young, eccentric director is getting ready to put on a production on Simone Weil. The philosopher is to be played by a Bergmanesque character, Elizabeth Vogler, an actress who returns to the profession after 30 years of “silence”. The heroine doubts whether it is fair to make a play on Simone against her, with contempt for her theses, and disbelieving her honesty. Nevertheless, the rehearsals start, and the director and his collaborators provoke a long improvisation – a psychodrama especially for Elizabeth. It is as if a trip into the interior of one of the dreams described by Weil is to be a trap for the actress. It is to coerce her into an uncontrolled reaction, to kindle her senses, and to compromise her own perception of Christianity and the person of Weil.
As is his style, Lupa enters deeply into the intimacy of his actors, talks them into emotional transgressions, and provokes extreme situa-tions.

Poor lighting, very dimmed venue. No flash allowed, naturally. Tried to use the circumstances to my advances and went for a "vintage" grainy B/W look. Shot mainly with manual focus, which was a new (but rather fun) experience.

Knives in Hens
Director: Weronika Szczawińska
The Olsztyn version of Harrover’s drama, popular on Polish stages, resembles a new linguistic theatrical experiment rather than a study in women’s alienation. Its director discovers a true semantic treatise under the feature and psychological layer of the text. Three actors are placed within an empty, white space. Words and notions are written out on the walls. With the help of letters and pictograms, the protagonists make attempts to decipher the sense of life and the world. What betrayal means, what the constituent elements of jealousy are, what love is, what a woman is, and who a man may be. Emotions become separated from words, the text of the role assumes the form of a complex language code. What notions are taken to form a hero? At the beginning of the play, the Ploughman, deserted by Wife who chose the Miller, uses the wall to writes the fundamental equation: “horse, field, woman = entire me”. In this world, the task of the Miller is to spoil the inscriptions, change the meanings of words by obscene word endings and drawings. In the thus formatted world, love must also assume a written form. And suddenly everything is like in Greenaway’s Pillow Book: a naked man is writing on a naked woman. This means: now you are mine, you are a sheet of paper that I may fill with writing as I want, and once I am done, I will create you anew. Another production by Weronika Szczawińska, where the laboriously discovered, radical and new form affords a different sense to a well-known work.
