Tango
Director: Jerzy Jarocki
After the Polish premiere of Tango in 1964, the play was predicted “to be played eternally” in the Polish theatre: played regularly like the bugle call from St Mary’s Tower in Kraków. One of those who assisted in the delivery of the fantastic drama, Jerzy Jarocki, returns to it 55 years later. He supplements the Mrożkian tale of “the family that turns into the society” with a history of the ideological breakdowns of the 20th century and also a discreet settling of accounts with the theatre of the bygone century. In Jarocki, one of the protagonists – Stomil – changes from an eccentric avant-garde artist into a conceptualist director who walked hand-in-hand with Kantor, Swinarski, Grotowski, Szajna, Grzegorzewski, and finally with Jarocki himself.
Artur – the young, conservative rebel – assumes the repulsive form of a member of the phalanx of politicians, pragmatist-technocrats, who believe they have acquired knowledge of the mechanisms of controlling “the uneducated rabble”. It is only chance that decides which of the rightist parties they are going to choose. Jarocki knows only too well that the wisdom of the well-read Tango comes to the floor whenever there is something important in the reality that needs naming. Therefore, the director speaks straight about what violence and power are today, and why ideologists lose. In the final scene, as always in this drama, two males – Eugeniusz and Edek – dance La Cumparsita. It is usually in this scene that the answer to the question what Tango means today is vested. After all, it is one of the most powerful image-metaphors in the history of Polish theatre. It usually has a conservative dancing with a despot, while in Jarocki, two opportunist forces meet, with either dancer pondering how to exploit the other. The cynical mentor has possibly found an ideal disciple, a subcontractor to ano-ther conservative revolution. Jarocki puts forth a hypothesis that of this alliance something will again be born in Poland.

Behind the scenes with the cast and crew of Snow White, our holiday musical comedy, which we performed from December 22 to 30, 2017 at the Throckmorton Theatre in Mill Valley.
Our version of Snow White turns the classic fairy tale into a mirror to reflect our modern times, mixing witty dialogue with political commentary, toe-tapping song and dance, performed by players of all ages and backgrounds. Our holiday panto invited the audience to play an active role in the show, and they booed the villains, cheered the heroes and sang along with us.
Community theater is good for the soul, whether you’re an actor or in the audience. This play was a truly cathartic experience, which invited us all to let out our feelings in the theater's sacred space and join our hearts together.
Kudos to our wonderful director Nicole Helfer, producer Amy Marie Haven, playwright Tyler Null, music director Ed Bogas, set designer Steve Coleman, choreographer June Cooperman, costume designer Charlene Lundgren Frischer, sound designer Edwin De Shazo and the Throckmorton's visionary director Lucy Mercer, to name but a few.
I'm grateful to you all and to our amazing cast and crew for this opportunity to grow as an artist. I hope to work again with these talented group to create more community theatre.

Jess had a spare ticket to see Doug Stanhope and I had nothing to do, so I went with her. He wasn't quite my cup of tea (he is very vulgar), but it was fun taking photo and hanging with friends anyway.

This event will bring together activists and comedians to discuss the ways in which comedy can push forward agendas such as #metoo and contemporary women’s rights movements, and how this effort can translate into meaningful change in women’s lives. The event will also showcase the work of UN Women and Mythos Labs in countering violent extremist recruitment narratives—and their understandings of gender—through comedy. It features a comedy set by renown comedian and actress Aparna Nancherla.
In early 2018, UN Women partnered with Mythos Labs to produce a series of comedy videos to counter the messaging of terrorist groups in the Asia region. Working with female comedians in South Asia and South-East Asia, these sketches challenge the narratives used by violent extremist groups and counter extremist ideology in the online space. While this work was originally piloted to prevent and counter violent extremism, the implications go far beyond this realm. Comedy can and is being used to promote broader themes of women’s empowerment and gender equality, by not just making us laugh, but by challenging stereotypes with a broad and engaged audience.
This project is part of UN Women’s Empowered Women, Peaceful Communities programme, which is funded by the Government of Japan. This programme works in the Asia Pacific region to challenge the gendered dynamics of violent extremism and reverse its growing trend, through prioritizing women’s rights, empowerment, participation and leadership—in national decision-making and at the community level.

Tatjana Meissner – Indiscret
Indiscret sind vierzehn Songs: frech und frivol, rotzig und sanft, tiefsinnig und witzig, mitreißend und melancholisch.
Indiscret heißt Tatjana Meissners erste Audio-CD.
Das ist neu.
Aber indiskret ist die Entertainerin schon immer... ein wenig. Die Kabarettistin legt den Finger in die Wunde; spricht aus, was jeder schon einmal gedacht hat und bringt ihr Publikum zum Lachen, indem sie mit viel Selbstironie Themen und Begebenheiten aufgreift, die jeder schon erlebt hat.
In ihren Liedern lästert die Entertainerin über menschliche Laster („Alte Mütter“ und „Kranke Männer“), plaudert von weiblichen Unzulänglichkeiten („Spann mal aus“) und männlichen Abgründen („Er redet nur“). Sie swingt über den „Sinn“ des Lebens, singt melancholisch „Ich werde wie Mama“, rockt den Mauerfall und reggaet die Kraft der Hormone. Die Meissner lässt nichts aus, nichtmal Schlager („Glückspilz“).

Comedy and Tragedy
1808
Pine (originally painted)
Made by William Rush, American,
born 1756, died 1833
William Rush created these two sculptures, Comedy and Tragedy, for Philadelphia's first theater, the New Theatre, at Sixth and Chestnut Streets. Until this time, Rush had been known for his carvings of ship's figureheads and for his ornamental work. This commission marked the beginning of the artist's creation of large-scale public sculptures.
Other works carved by Rush for Philadelphia include allegorical representations of the Schuykill River for the original waterworks (where City Hall stands today); a set of figures for the second waterworks at Fairmount (now part of the Museum's collection); and a full-length figure of George Washington.

Ghali apre la performance di Martin Garrix per Milano Rocks, sabato 10 settembre 2022 all’Ippodromo Snai San Siro.
Fru di The Jackal ha il compito di presentare Ghali e con lui sul palco come ospiti ci sono Axell, Tedua, Digital Astro, Pyrex, Baby Gang e Charlie Charles.
Ghali Amdouni, alias Ghali, è un rapper italiano. Nato a Milano il 21 Maggio 1993 da genitori tunisini, ha sempre vissuto in Italia, nello specifico a Baggio, periferia milanese.
Ha iniziato ad avvicinarsi all'hip hop utilizzando lo pseudonimo Fobia, mutato successivamente in Ghali Foh. Nel 2011 ha fondato i Troupe D'Elite, gruppo nel quale erano presenti anche il rapper Er Nyah (ora conosciuto come Ernia), la cantante Maite e il produttore Fonzie (ora conosciuto come Fawzi).
Il 26 Gennaio 2018 Ghali ha pubblicato il suo singolo Cara Italia, brano cult che ha superato le 128milioni di visualizzazioni su YouTube, venendo certificato triplo disco di platino nel giro di un mese e restando stabilmente ai vertici delle classifiche di airplay del paese per settimane. Un successo straordinario che segna il coronamento di un percorso lungo 4 anni che porta Ghali alla ribalta come vero e proprio riferimento della musica italiana ed europea.
Gianluca Colucci, in arte Fru è un attore e comico italiano nato nel 1995. Fru è uno dei membri del gruppo comico The Jackal insieme a Simone Ruzzo, Ciro Priello, Fabio Balsamo, Claudia Napolitano e Aurora Leone.
Arrivato nel gruppo comico solamente nel 2016, undici anni dopo la fondazione della società di produzione The Jackal, Fru nel 2020 è entrato a far parte del cast della nuova serie italiana originale Netflix in collaborazione con i The Jackal, insieme a Fabio Balsamo, Generazione 56K e nel 2021 è uno dei comici in gara nel comedy show di Amazon, LOL: Chi ride è fuori e nel 2022 è in coppia con Aurora Leone nella nuova edizione di Pechino Express 2022 – La Rotta dei sultani.
Axell è nato in Senegal, ma a 12 anni si è trasferito a Torino nel quartiere Barriera di Milano. Parla francese e italiano, due lingue che si mischiano nelle sue canzoni e che gli danno un sapore internazionale, transalpino, ma unito alla fame, alla rabbia e a quel rap italiano che inevitabilmente ha assorbito nel quartiere torinese dove è cresciuto. Suona il pianoforte e la tromba, ama il rap, ma ascolta anche musica classica, la sua ultima canzone, Que Pasa, è stata condivisa anche dal calciatore interista Hachraf Hakimi. Le sue peculiarità artistiche hanno attirato l’attenzione di Ghali ed Axell ha firmato per Sto Records e ha pubblicato Que Pasa.
Tedua, pseudonimo di Mario Molinari (Genova, 21 febbraio 1994[2]), è un rapper italiano. Precedentemente noto come Incubo o Duate, è uno dei componenti di Wild Bandana, collettivo musicale genovese di cui fanno parte anche Izi, Vaz Tè, Guesan e Ill Rave.
Digital Astro, al secolo Rida Amaouch, è un artista classe 2000. Nasce ad Acireale da genitori marocchini e comincia ad avere contatti con la musica sin dalla tenera età avvicinandosi a diversi generi che lo porteranno a creare uno stile molto personale. Nel 2017 conosce il producer Sadturs che si rivelerà essere una figura chiave nel suo cammino e con il quale formerà la più classica delle coppie rapper-producer.
Nel 2020 viene notato proprio da Ghali che, intuendone le grandi potenzialità, decide di inserirlo nella cantera di Sto Records facendogli firmare il suo primo contratto. I suoi primi singoli ufficiali “Preghiera per il blocco” e “Tutto Passa” vengono fin da subito apprezzati dal pubblico che iniziano a conoscere il mondo di Digital Astro. Questo ruota attorno al racconto delle difficoltà che i ragazzi delle nuove generazioni devono affrontare.
Dark Pyrex, detto anche Principe Pyrex o Prynce, è il letterato della Dark Polo Gang. Il suo vero nome è Dylan Thomas Cerulli ed è nato nel 1994 da padre romano e madre afro-americana di New York.
Incontra Dark Side, Tony Effe e Wayne da adolescente a scuola. Inizia a rappare con loro per gioco, finché Sick Luke, figlio di Duke Montana, li convince a fare le cose sul serio confezionando i primi beat. Nasce così Dark Polo Gang, collettivo che inizialmente è addirittura un quintetto, insieme a un altro ragazzo romano, Bangerz.
Baby Gang, pseudonimo di Zaccaria Mouhib, è un rapper italiano di origini marocchine. Nasce a Lecco nel 2001 e a partire dagli undici anni passa gli anni tra carceri minorili e comunità educative.
Nel 2018 pubblica Street, il suo primo singolo, ma poco dopo viene arrestato e condannato alla detenzione nel carcere minorile Beccaria di Milano, dal quale esce grazie all’intervento di Don Claudio Burgio che lo porta nella propria comunità. Nel 2019 pubblica i singoli Fuck la Pula, Educazione e Cella 1. Ottiene un discreto successo nel 2020 grazie alla collaborazione con la 167 Gang nel singolo Baby Gang e Bimbi Soldato con Sacky. Dopo una lunga serie di singoli, nel 2021 pubblica prima EP1, progetto di 7 brani con le collaborazioni di Il Ghost, Omar, Neima Ezza, Rondodasosa e Escomar. Per fine agosto è previsto Delinquente, il suo primo disco ufficiale pubblicato per Warner Music Italy.
Charlie Charles, pseudonimo di Paolo Alberto Monachetti, è un produttore discografico e disc jockey italiano, ritenuto tra i principali esponenti della scena hip hop e trap italiana degli anni 2010.
Charlie Charles inizia la sua carriera ascoltando e producendo musica elettronica e techno, dedicandosi anche alla composizione di colonne sonore. Dopo diversi cambi di scuola, abbandonò le superiori per dedicarsi solo alla musica, creando a Seguro un proprio studio di registrazione. Intorno allo stesso periodo conosce il rapper Sfera Ebbasta, intraprendendo una collaborazione musicale culminata nel 2015 con l'album in studio XDVR. Il 2015 segna inoltre la collaborazione con Marracash per l'etichetta discografica indipendente Roccia Music, producendo vari brani e album con Ghali, Tedua, Izi, Gué Pequeno e la Dark Polo Gang, oltre a Sfera Ebbasta.
