Responses in Brief to Under the Radar 2013
As January festival season wraps up, I want to touch on a few of the pieces I’ve caught at the Public’s Under the Radar Festival that I haven’t yet had a chance to. Belarus Free Theater’s Minsk 2011: A reply to Kathy Acker. This is the fourth show I’ve seen by BFT and in some…

“Hamlet, Prince of Grief” at Under the Radar

Edit Kaldor C’est Du Chinois Promo from UTRFestival on Vimeo. Edit Kaldor’s C’est du Chinois, which opens at Under the Radar tonight, is one of the shows I was most interested in at this year’s festival. I was really hoping to get to do a nice preview for the piece, but time being what it…
