Multibird musical performance
2016-09-24 20:00 - 23:00 (America/New_York) | Three Heads Brewing, 186 Atlantic Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
Multibird is the brand new project by Seth Faergolzia. Seth is well known for subtly harmonic, experimental lyricism, dynamic song structures, and whip-crack-acrobatic vocals. Celebrated as a vibrant example of what happens when a musician turns a genre like folk upside down and inside out, over time Faergolzia has come to represent something of a genre unto himself oft times nowhere near the folk aesthetic.

La Ronde theatrical performance (2016-Sep-25 @ 2 p.m.)

Bread and Water Theatre is hosting a performance of La Ronde by Arthur Schnitzler.
First published for private circulation in Vienna in 1900, Arthur Schnitzler's famous play looks at the sexual morality and class ideology of his day through a series of sexual encounters between pairs of characters. When published in 1903, it became an immediate best-seller, scandalized Viennese society, and a year later was censored. Schnitzler was accused of pornography and worse. By choosing characters across the social spectrum, La Ronde offers a powerful view of how sexual contact transgresses boundaries of class. For mature audiences only. No cell phones or cameras allowed in the theatre for this production.

The Dryden will screen Sweet Bird of Youth (Richard Brooks, U.S. 1962, 120 min., 35mm).
By 1962, Tennessee Williams had become one of America's best-known playwrights, not just among the Broadway cognoscenti but regular moviegoers as well; eleven of his works had been turned into Hollywood films in as many years. The twelfth would be this adaptation of his 1959 sensation, starring Geraldine Page as Alexandra Del Lago, an aging Hollywood star who fears her latest comeback was an embarrassing failure, and has descended to a self-protective cocoon of booze and drugs. She's easy pickings for Chance Wayne (Paul Newman, who starred opposite Page in the original Broadway production), a handsome, opportunistic gigolo who is on his own downward slide. Chance drives Alexandra down to his Florida hometown where the wreckage of his past and a shocking comeuppance await.

The term "Pinkwashing" refers to Israeli government's propaganda campaign to brand Israel as a safe haven for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people; to paint Palestinian and Arab cultures as unfriendly to the same; and to divert attention from the Israeli government's abuses in occupying Palestinian Territories. The film focuses on planned meetings and programs in Seattle in March 2012 by the brand-Israel campaign. Protests against the topic and programs led to their cancellation.

Barrence Whitfield and The Savages, The Fox Sisters musical performances
2016-09-28 20:30 - 23:30 | Lovin' Cup, 300 Park Point Dr., Rochester, New York, 14623, United States
Barrence Whitfield is a full-throttle soul screamer in the spirit of Little Richard, Wilson Pickett, and Solomon Burke. He has been described as the owner of one incredible pair of lungs, with limitless energy and unmatched enthusiasm for his music and his audience. Barrence is a rarity in this business—one of a few black, rock 'n roll singer/entertainers who Spin Magazine says maintains a frenzied performance. The Savages lay down a groovy racket that's so thick and greasy, you'll need to keep moist towelettes near the hi-fi. Barrence and the boys are to soul what the Cramps are to Rockabilly—a gateway musical drug to America's demented roots underbelly. Whitfield is a performer so consumed with satisfying his audiences that he has been called 'crazed, frenetic and completely unhinged.' After college, Barrence, like many organic music lovers, found himself working in a Kenmore Square record shop called Nuggets. There, he was discovered by guitarist Peter Greenberg, of the legendary Boston bands Dmz and The Lyres. Through this introduction, Barrence got his first taste of the rock 'n roll life and Boston's music scene. Boston reciprocated in kind with 7 Boston Music Awards.
