NJ Rep Announces 2010-2011 SeasonApril 22, 2010Conspiracy theories in lower Manhattan, a steamy meeting on the lam, the Golden Age of Hollywood, and the dark underbelly of the ivory tower are all part of the adventurous new season of plays announced today by New Jersey Repertory Company. From Yankee Tavern, Steven Dietz's deftly disorienting 9/11 thriller, to Puma, a new play peopled with bygone stars of the silver screen, there is intrigue, irony, deep ethical dilemma and high hilarity to be found on stage in 2010-11.
Kim Smith Returns To Joe's Pub With 'MORPHIUM' 5/29April 22, 2010Australian cabaret artist KIM SMITH returns to Joe's Pub at the Public Theatre with 'MORPHIUM,' a dark and whimsical evocation of the decadence and decay of 1930's Europe. Singing in German, French, and English, Kim Smith reinterprets works by Weimar-era composers, and modern-day artists alike, from Mischa Spoliansky and the Supremes, to Kurt Weill and Kylie Minogue, as he charts a ruinous path through the arrivals and departures of a neo-Weimar, musical misfit. Jerry Steichen accompanies on piano, Christian Coulson directs.

BATTLEFIELDS A Solo Exhibition by NEBOJSA SERIC-SHOBA Shows at DAC Through 4/25April 22, 2010The Dumbo Arts Center (DAC) is pleased to present Battlefields, an exhibition of photographic works by New York based artist, Nebojša Šeric-Shoba. Taken over a 10 year period (from 1999 to 2009), the featured works, documentations of actual battlefields, call into question the autonomy of 'place': the disparity that exists between historical events and the geographic locations in which they occur. Apart from the occasional historic marker or didactic memorial plaque, little visual evidence remains to distinguish one site from another, a disconnect that evokes the transient nature of history, the arbitrary lines of the battlefield and the universality of the theaters of war.
