SUMMARY:Potentia // Actualitas
DESCRIPTION:Potentia // Actualitas is a collaborative\, immersive installation that explores the potential and actualized complexities of natural intelligence through lens-based media\, found objects and ready-mades in a site-specific installation. The lens-based works record iterations of light\, space and water surrounding a central structure created from organic matter\, rusted artifacts\, glass\, and construction materials. Running throughout is a neon line that connects these varying attributes into a systemic relationship. Together\, Cindee Travis Klement and JR Roykovich build a world that investigates the balance of opposing dichotomies and subsequent freedom from dualistic constraints. They advocate for a wild and intuitive response to a possible future of unbound potential.

SUMMARY:Movies Houstonians Love: Caravaggio
DESCRIPTION:Introduced by Houston artist David McGee\nA profound reflection on art\, sexuality\, and identity\, Caravaggio recounts the life of the celebrated 17th-century painter through his brilliant\, nearly blasphemous paintings and flirtations with the underworld. The film incorporates Caravaggio’s precise aesthetic into the visuals\, while touching on all of director Derek Jarman’s major concerns: history\, homosexuality\, violence\, and the relationship between painting and film. Nigel Terry (Excalibur) stars with Sean Bean (Game of Thrones) and Tilda Swinton (Orlando).\nDavid McGee received a BFA from Prairie View A&M University. He has had solo exhibitions at numerous regional institutions\, and his work belongs to collections including the Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston; Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston; W. E. B. Du Bois Institute for Afro-American Research at Harvard University; and the Menil Collection. He is represented by Inman Gallery.

SUMMARY:Beyond Broadway Series: Alan Cumming Is Not Acting His Age
DESCRIPTION:In Alan Cumming Is Not Acting His Age\, he covers all the bases: sex\, death and bacchanalia\, with a set list as eclectic as the man himself. Songs from Cabaret authors Kander and Ebb blend with contemporary favourites and even a self-penned paean against plastic surgery. ‘I am literally the only person on American TV who has not had botox!’ he quips. He also discusses the effects of gravity\, the time the mum from the Brady Bunch punched him\, and what his dog taught him about the quality of life.

SUMMARY:Don Giovanni
DESCRIPTION:There will be hell to pay640 girls in Italy\, 231 in Germany\, 100 in France\, 91 in Turkey\, 1\,003 in Spain. As the servant Leporello famously sings in his “Catalogue aria\,” the eponymous fiend in Mozart’s sublime tragicomedy Don Giovanni has already been very busy when he beds the engaged Anna and then kills her father in a duel. Even as he’s pursued by aggrieved parties on all sides\, Don Giovanni sets about seducing the lovely Zerlina—on her wedding day. But the arrogant Spanish antihero everyone loves to hate meets his comeuppance\, and in director Kasper Holten’s brilliant production\, his descent into hell is not literal but mental\, as depicted by Luke Halls’s incredible projections onto Es Devlin’s magically minimalist set. Conducted by acclaimed Mozartian Dame Jane Glover\, the opera’s stellar cast will be headlined by charismatic Italian bass-baritone Luca Pisaroni\, an international superstar\, in the title role\, opposite sensational soprano Andriana Chuchman in her role debut as Donna Anna. The opera’s world-renowned cast will be headlined by bass-baritone Ryan McKinny as Leporello\, tenor Kang Wang in his company debut as Don Ottavio\, and mezzo-soprano Sasha Cooke as Donna Elvira.

SUMMARY:The Taming of the Shrew by William Shakespeare
DESCRIPTION:The Classical Theatre Company will wrap up its Season of Iconic Women with William Shakespeare’s comic masterpiece\, The Taming of the Shrew. Having not produced a Shakespeare piece since Henry V in 2015\, nor a Shakespeare comedy since The Merchant of Venice in 2013\, CTC is primed and ready to dive into The Bard once again.\nThe Taming of the Shrew follows the story of Katherine who is being sold off as a wife by her father to the highest bidder. Her boldness and stubborn streak have made her unmarriable by society\, but her sister\, Bianca\, cannot marry until the elder sister has been so. Enter Petruchio\, a cad who is determined to win over Katherine to be his wife. An explosive battle of the sexes ensues in this electrically charged love story that will have audiences crying with laughter.\n“This play is my favorite Shakespeare comedy\,” says CTC Executive Artistic Director John Johnston. “But it’s got some problematic aspects that don’t really play at face value for a modern audience. The idea of a woman being ‘tamed’ by a man to be married is creepy at best. So\, to address this issue\, our production is going to set the play as a mid-20th-century sitcom. Think Father Knows Best\, The Donna Reed Show\, or The Dick Van Dyke Show. Using the script to explore the values that we once held in our popular culture\, and do still to this day\, in some respects. Our goal is to examine and critique the treatment of women rather than glorify it\, and this lens of pre-feminist situational comedies will help us to do that.”

SUMMARY:Stagolee and the Funeral of a Dangerous Word
DESCRIPTION:World Premiere\nBy Thomas Meloncon\nThe play takes place in an office in a small town in East Texas where the local NAACP chapter is planning a funeral for the “N word”. At the same time\, a bigoted white man is on his way to that same office to have a frank discussion with the legendary Stagolee\, a black man known for his swagger. The two men have had a fight at their workplace\, and this “conversation” is actually a court-ordered intervention\, facilitated by a visiting Jewish psychologist. This new play examines different points of view along the racial divide and does so without judgement\, ultimately bringing its characters into a better understanding of each other. A world premiere production of nationally recognized Houston playwright Thomas Meloncon’s newest work.\nThomas Meloncon is an Associate Professor of Theatre in the Visual and Performing Art Dept. in the College of Liberal Arts and Behavioral Sciences at Texas Southern University.

Goode published in Acting Up and Getting Down: An Anthology of African American Playwrights of Texas\, published by University of Texas Press\, The Man Who Saved New Orleans published in Callaloo: A Journal of African Diaspora Arts and Letters by John Hopkins University Press. His popular stage plays include The Diary of Black Men\, Whatever Happened to Black Love\, If Beds Could talk\, Jump the Broom\, and Where Were You in ’65\, to name a few. Mr. Meloncon is the Narrator on the recent Fade to Black “Thank You\, Ten” documentary film\, celebrating their 10 years of mentoring and producing new African American playwrights from across the U.S. He is the featured poet on several Jazz musical albums\, and his folksong\, “Ain’t Gonna Wait Too Long” can be heard in season 3 episode 6 of the TV series SNOWFALL.

SUMMARY:Beetlejuice
DESCRIPTION:He earned his stripes on Broadway… now the ghost-with-the-most is coming to Austin.\nIt’s showtime! Based on Tim Burton’s dearly beloved film\, this hilarious musical tells the story of Lydia Deetz\, a strange and unusual teenager whose whole life changes when she meets a recently deceased couple and a demon with a thing for stripes. With an irreverent book\, an astonishing set\, and a score that’s out of this Netherworld\, BEETLEJUICE is “SCREAMINGLY GOOD FUN!” (Variety). And under its uproarious surface (six feet under\, to be exact)\, it’s a remarkably touching show about family\, love\, and making the most of every Day-O!\nBeetlejuice contains strong language\, mature references\, and a lot of the crazy\, inappropriate stuff you would expect from a deranged demon. Recommended for ages 13 and up.\nPresented by the Memorial Hermann Broadway at the Hobby Center

SUMMARY:Reefer Madness
DESCRIPTION:There is a new menace sweeping the nation\, ready to ensnare and seduce the youth and drag them down into a life of sin: REEFER MADNESS!\nIn this hilarious\, over-the-top satire\, the high school drama club\, led by the gravely stern Lecturer\, illustrates the perils of the “leafy green assassin.” They tell the story of Jimmy\, a fine\, upstanding\, All-American boy whose life fell apart because of the evil reefer. Jimmy was a good kid\, with a bright future ahead of him. He had a sweetheart whom he loved\, the wholesome and sweet Mary Lane. But when Jimmy is tricked into taking his first puff of reefer\, his life quickly spirals downward. He begins to neglect his family\, his schoolwork\, even Mary\, in order to spend all his time smoking at the Reefer Den. His addiction leads him to debauchery\, sin\, and theft.\nReefer Madness is an irreverent parody of the classic 1930s instructional film full of camp\, hilarity\, mayhem\, and madness.

SUMMARY:CLEANSED by Sarah Kane
DESCRIPTION:The Catastrophic Theatre presents the Regional Premiere of\nSarah Kane’s CLEANSED\n“LOVE ME OR KILL ME”\nIn her brief boundary breaking career\, Sarah Kane’s work prompted the term “a theatre of extremes\,” yet CLEANSED comes soaked through with hope. Explosively aching\, hauntingly poetic\, and disarmingly tender\, Kane delivers a fever-dream fable of unimaginable brutality and miraculous beauty.\nIn a former university\, society’s “undesirables” are subjected to a series of experiments designed to test the limits of love on the battlefield of the human body.\nGiven our country’s immediate threat to the bodies and lives of those of us who look\, live\, or love beyond the confines of conservative ‘norms\,’ 26 years after it was written\, CLEANSED feels nightmarishly prescient. More than a play\, in 2024’s America\, CLEANSED feels like a cause.\n“Once you have perceived that life is very cruel\, the only response is to live with as much humanity\, humor and freedom as you can.”\n– Sarah Kane\nThe regional premiere of CLEANSED is co-directed by core artist T Lavois Thiebaud and founding artistic director Jason Nodler\, reuniting the creative team behind Kane’s 4.48 Psychosis which The Houston Press called “an imaginative bulldozer of a production.”\nThe production features choreography by Adam Castan͂eda and set design by Afsaneh Aayani. James Templeton serves as sound\, special effects and video designer as well as composer. Lighting design provided by Hudson Davis\, properties design by Lauren Davis and costumes by Juan Saracay. We’re thrilled to collaborate with the sculpture group\, Moon Papas Art for set construction.\nThe cast includes Raymond Compton\, Bryan Kaplún\, Ruben Ramires Da Silva\, T Lavois Thiebaud\, Chuck Vaughn\, Clarity Welch\, Abraham Zeus Zapata and Walt Zipprian with musicians Sarah Moessner and James Templeton.\nNo one under 16 years of age admitted.

SUMMARY:'Rafael Domenech and Tomas Vu  Heat Silhouette'
DESCRIPTION:Asia Society Texas is pleased to present Rafael Domenech and Tomas Vu  Heat Silhouette\, the organization’s first public art installation. This collaboration between Cuban American artist Rafael Domenech and Vietnamese American artist Tomas Vu assumes the form of a dynamic outdoor pavilion with two stages\, occupying AST’s 13\,000-square-foot lot at the intersection of Oakdale and Caroline Streets in the heart of Houston’s Museum District. Rafael Domenech and Tomas Vu  Heat Silhouette is commissioned in partnership with the University of Houston’s Cynthia Woods Mitchell Center for the Arts.\nDescribed by the artists as a form of “urban acupuncture\,” Heat Silhouette is a physical structure designed to welcome the spontaneous circulation of people\, energy\, and events. The outdoor pavilion takes cues from college campuses\, popular culture\, and experimental magazines. Made of wood\, aluminum framing\, and laser-cut construction mesh — the very materials used to build the city of Houston — the pavilion becomes an extension of the museum and a public programming space. The title itself references the most omnipresent weather condition of Houston  the summer’s intense heat\, a heat so palpable that it feels as if it occupies actual space\, creating a silhouette or edge.\nFor the artists\, the pavilion resists merely being a form of architecture. Instead\, the pavilion physically operates as an experimental magazine\, referencing the graphic processes seen in radical publications from the 1960s and 1970s like Kontexts\, an important catalyst of avant-garde poetry. Readers do not flip Heat Silhouette’s pages; instead\, they become viewers that are invited to walk in\, around\, and through the publication. Laser-cut texts appropriated from popular science-fiction films\, poetry\, and other sources intermingle to form multiple layers and viewpoints that shift with the sunlight. Heat Silhouette is a space of active production filled with theater-like compartments — a site where text\, image\, and pattern coalesce into a kind of urban camouflage.
