Adored Dorian Gray directed brilliantly by Kip Williams and tour de force’d by Sarah Snook. Alas, another ignorant misogyny-laced Jesse Green review 1. review the production and not the 1 in your own wee mind & 2. Please don’t compare Wilde to Chekhov, and Snook to Andrew Scott. Do you only see men?

AOC, please primary Chuck Schumer. I can’t believe he is voting for the republican bill. We need Democrats with courage and the ability to resist. Not collaborate. Put Schumer Out to Pasture. Call or email his offices please.

Is Chuck Schumer a senator or serving in the Judenrat in the ghetto? Collaborating with nazis?! Please contact Schumer and Urge him to find his courage and vote NO and let the government close. He needs to be primaried.

I am thinking of how effectively French truck drivers on strike blocked all the exits on the borders when I was driving to Switzerland in 1993(?) I cursed them at the time, but now I am thankful for the modeling. Let’s all emulate the French.

Summon our inner Ravens, the tricksters, in this time. We do not owe our honor, our truth and our obedience to evil. We owe honor and truth to our allies and ourselves. Fight dirty as resistance fighters did and do. I used to say I would smoke cigarettes if Philip Morris gave my playwrights money.

Dear artist-colleagues: the EO against DEI has been blocked, for now. That means the NEA cannot enforce Trump’s edict. Of course, the chilling effect is happening.
Do Not Censor yourself. Institutions and artists who act from the moral center (& aesthetic necessity) of equity and inclusion apply!

having already been tackled by his neighbor, Senator Rand Paul does not fear karma in his encouragement to deny security protection to Dr. Fauci. Do senators get governmentally paid security protection? What should the policy be?

What terrifies me is Trump has pardoned his brown shirted thugs who are out now on the streets as he is denying protection to great Americans like Fauci. Is it possible to organize citizen patrols to guard our great Americans?

God help the Blue States. Farewell FEMA? We are already back to private fire companies. We are already kickstarting medical care and funerals. God help the Red States too. Did a sermon given by a woman about mercy provoke a child’s tantrum?

turns out, 3 women in DC have bigger balls than Reps in the senate: a bishop, and 2 senators from Maine and Alaska. Putting the abuse aside: what cowards enable an alcoholic to run the department of defense? Indefensible.

we’re in a time of neo-german/americanexpressionism. Feelings must override verisimilitude because no one is paying attention: do cockroaches dancing in Mother Play bother you? Or the fact that there is more humanity in roaches than landlords? Emilia Perez, Nickel Boys, Queer to me are recognizable.

here is a brief thought for those who hate Emilia Perez: how much have we drifted towards expecting verisimilitude in film and theatre? It is an aesthetic that creates a passive agreement with reactionary views of the real. Emilia Perez and Nickel Boys interrupts that aesthetic.

From the peanut gallery: I appreciate attention paid to Emilia Perez and Nickel Boys. I can’t get these movies out of my mind. Nickel Boys reverberates now with a character like Spencer in the White House. But I also regret the non-recognition of QUEER and particularly Daniel Craig’s performance.

I wanted to see some truth tonight. before the travesty/lies/hate accelerate. NICKEL BOYS. Devastating. Beautiful filmmaking. Incredible acting. The worms of white nationalist racism under the rock that is now turned over and taking the oath of office. Please see this film.

I am in a place where there are no radios, and no tv. Even so I know what time it is. Two more days of America. Two more days of a country I pledged allegiance to as a child.
