This Weeks' Arts in Review Spotlights THE ECCENTRICITIES OF A NIGHTINGALE

By:

The Julio Martinez-hosted Arts in Review, which celebrates the best in theater and cabaret in the greater Los Angeles area-airs Fridays (2-2:30pm) on KPFK (90.7FM).

Today, Friday, Aug 5, Arts on Review welcomes actress Ginna Carter (Alma) and director Dana Jackson from the Pacific Resident Theatre production of Tennessee Williams' Eccentricities of a Nightingale, extended until September 25.

Poetry of the heart ignites powerful desires that can no longer be ignored by Alma. The preacher's daughter boldly seizes on a chance to follow her heart's inclinations when John Buchanan returns from medical school to live in their small town where, too often, dreams die quickly. Tennessee Williams's subtly seductive play centers on the passionately complex and sometimes cruel relationships to which love becomes vulnerable, when we are strong enough to allow it.

Arts in Review is broadcast live from the studios of KPFK, Pacifica Radio for Southern California, heard on 90.7FM (Los Angeles), 98.7FM (Santa Barbara), 99.5FM (Ridgecreat/China Lake) and worldwide in real time, podcast over kpfk.org
