LIVING WITH THE DEAD: THE FILMS OF GEORGE A. ROMERO Comes to BAM
by BWW News Desk - January 22, 2019
From Friday, February 22 through Sunday, March 3, BAM presents Living with the Dead: The Films of George A. Romero, a career-spanning retrospective-the first since his death-exploring independent trailblazer Romero (1940-2017) and his use of the horror genre to explore the darkness and paranoia of contemporary America. After ushering in a new era in independent and horror filmmaking with 1968's groundbreaking Night of the Living Dead, Romero embarked on a singular, influential four-decade career, imbuing his all-American nightmares with satiric and deadly serious commentaries on issues like race, capitalism, militarism, and government mistrust. In Romero's films, the monsters are not the other-they are us.

JACK Presents CHRONICLE X: A Revival By Nia O. Witherspoon
by BWW News Desk - January 21, 2019
CHRONICLE X: A Revival is a concert-installation that applies ancient wisdom to contemporary strife through the power of sound and music. Merging the Yoruba sacred creation story of Knowledge, Wisdom, and Understanding with the transcripts of Diamond Reynolds' Facebook Live video after Philando Castile was shot by police, and set to a multi-genre African-diaspora soundscape ranging from gospel to vogue, CHRONICLE X takes as its inspiration the revivals of the turn of the century, intended to bring humans closer to the divine. But instead of being tied to one church or tradition, this deconstructed revival is a shedding of white-supremacist capitalist patriarchy on the road to awaken the sacred: the sacred of the body, the sacred that is known and remembered, even in the face of that which is not understood. At CHRONICLE X, worship at black queer feminist church. Decolonize the sacred. Revive.
