New Genre Festival hosts DEAR NEBULON
Dear Nebulon was inspired and developed from the Recorder song "Dear
Nebulon", which was itself inspired by a series of real-life encounters the
band had with a local eccentric and frequenter of Orpha's Lounge, a man who
calls himself Nebulon and claims to be from an eponymous planet. Nebulon
feels that he is in communication with beings of a higher order who
communicate to him through a special black box. He feels that his mission
is largely to help humanity, and to suffer for it. Recorder collaborates
with John Cruncleton to stage their songs as a performance piece in which
the character Nebulon progresses through the song-cycle by presenting the
various fractured emanations of his psyche in between the songs.
February 26 & 27 at 8:00pm
(the festival continues through March 6th with local and touring artists)

"Song for Coretta "
by Pearl Cleage
Performance Times: 2010 Feb 26-27, 8 p.m. and Feb 28, 3 p.m.
Ticket Prices: $ 15.00 general admission;
groups of 10 or more $ 12.50 per ticket;
students $12.50.
Venue: Liddy Doenges Theater, Tulsa Performing Arts Center,
Synopsis: On February 6, 2006, people began lining up at dawn outside of Atlanta's
Ebenezer Baptist Church to pay their respects to the late Mrs. Coretta Scott King,
widow of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., whose body lay in state in the small
sanctuary. By mid-morning, the crowd wound down the street and around the corner of
the old red brick building. People of all ages stood patiently for hours, waiting to
say goodbye. Sometimes they murmured to each other quietly. Sometimes they shared
memories of Mrs. King's extraordinary life and expressed sorrow at her passing. When
a cold rain began to fall at sunset, those who had thought to bring umbrellas shared
them with those whose resolve was the only thing not dampened by the drizzle. At
close to midnight, the crowd had dwindled to a determined few. The five fictional
characters in this play are at the end of that long line of mourners.
