BLOOD AND BRAINS
Today's Special: Blood and Brains
Published: Sep 1, 2010
(1)
Tribe of Fools wants to scare the bejeezus out of you so badly with their version ofDracula, they're making you sign a waiver. Not kidding. Instead of some clichéd Béla Lugosi knockoff, they're digging deeper, focusing on the brain fever suffered by hapless solicitor Jonathan Harker from Bram Stoker's OG novel. "The stuff that we're playing with comes from us doing about a year of research about fear — both the psychological and biological mechanisms," says Tribe artistic director/Draculadirector Jay Wojnarowski. The idea is to work your amygdala over pretty good.Sept. 2-6 and 8-11, $20, St. Stephen's Theater, 923 Ludlow St.

There are a ton of meaningless musical genres that make sense only to bloggers and nerds, but Rainbow Destroyer's self-proclaimed "zombie-pop" could not be more apt. Rainbeaux Bite and Brian Reignbow make dancefloor-ready New Wave tunes that would fit right in at Making Time — if Making Time were for dead people. And if their YouTube channel has anything to say about it, the duo is straight-up hilarious and dead sexy (rim shot!). Zombies Are Forever is your turn to audition for the band — zombie affects optional — in a karaoke rumpus. I call The Hooters' "All You Zombies."Sept. 9-11, 11:45 p.m., $10, RUBA Club, 414 Green St.

The Dawson Street Dramatic Society (DSDS) is hardly a bunch of undead posers; they originally called themselves Zombies Ain't Shit Co. (and, perhaps unrelated, they're huge Grateful Dead fans). For Dead Air: The Final Broadcast of the Zombie Apocalypse, the company takes cues from Orson Welles and his Mercury Theater Co. Just as that famous 1938 broadcast of H.G. Wells' War of the Worldsfreaked out unsuspecting listeners, DSDS will broadcast humanity's last gasps during a world-ruining zombie takeover.Sept. 3-4, 10 and 17-18, $10, Connie's Ric Rac, 1132 S. Ninth St.

Call it a counterpoint to Dead Air's prediction of the zomb-pocalypse: Little Bunny Voodoo — a puppetry company that seeks to bring its kid-friendly medium to adult audiences — imagines a world in which the whole undead-revolution kerfuffle has been avoided. In A Tale of Two Brains, all that's left are two toothless zombies roaming the Earth, seeking out the meaning of life — and maybe a good dentist. Sept. 9-11, $10, RUBA Club, 414 Green St.
OPENING NIGHT!!!
Opening Night of DEAD AIR
has come and gone, but was a great success!
Thanks to Dave, Steve and all that came by the Dawson Street Pub last Friday to help us kick off DEAD AIR and the 2010 Philly Fringe! Dave managed to get everyone a seat up close to the stage and the sound was crystal clear---there was also lots of good food and drink, oh and the play went well
SATURDAY NIGHT saw us live in Center City for the first time and what a turn out! Connie's Ric Rac, a south philly staple, lives up to the reputation with the creepy surroundings and bright stage lights! Its no longer a BYOB though, so empty all those bottles into soda cups before coming
The Fringe Fest is also underway and I can't wait to get out there and see Marat/Sade, Dracula, A tale of Two Brains, and 448 Psychosis---one of the first Fringe shows I ever saw (Edinburgh Fringe 04) and directed in a one act festival in Texas.
DEAD AIR runs Friday Night Sept 10th at Connie's Ric Rac at 9th and Washington starting at 8 pm.
We will then finish the Fringe with a final Friday at Connies (Sept 17th) and close out the 2010 Live Arts Philly Fringe Fest at Dawson Street Pub on Saturday (Sept 18th)
We'll be back next week to put up our newest podcast including LIVE CLIPS FROM THE SHOW, on the spot reviews, and the secrets to making home made blooooood.
In the meantime, check out this great article the Philly City Paper did on horror in the Fringe!
