A couple of years ago, The Wooster Group asked Richard Foreman (the greatest theater artist I for one have ever experienced) if they could completely reimagine hisSymphony of Rats, a piece they had initially performed under Foreman’s direction in the 1980s, summarized by the auteur as, “a President of the United States is receiving messages by means other than the known senses, and he doesn't know whether to trust them or not”. Foreman told them, “You can do whatever you want! I hope it's completely unrecognizable.” You can see why they chose to redo it now.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: From one garage to another: Antique Garage is so cute that you tend to forget how good the food is. And, it was Mediterranean before everybody and his brother were.
