Hopeless
The Brooklyn Bay
May 15 - June 28, 2009 **Extended**
Review by peanutduck
Mindfulness-based humor may skip over uninitiated or Eastern philosophical skeptics; but, no matter - until the last 20 minutes, when Melanya Helene’s meandering exploration of Pema Chodron’s meditative teachings turns expositive, everyone will easily lose themselves in Helene’s near unparalleled whole-hearted vitality, whimsy, and physical and vocal embodiment of story.

Silence
Johnny Stallings at Brooklyn Bay
October 7, 2005; closes October 15, 2005
Stallings is a genius of sincerity. That said, this lecture/sermon/self-improvement meditation challenged my notion of what theatre is. One could argue that the conflict’s between silence and noise, that we’re all players, resolution personal to each. Yet, to me it was all talk, contrary to what I was to embrace.
