The long-running No Name Comedy / Variety Show brings New York's best established and upcoming authors and storytellers including Kaytlin Bailey, Mike Brown, Cammi Climaco, Jackie Jax and Terri Mintz to Washington Heights tonight, December 2nd for their monthly series: 'No Name @ Word Up Super Storytellers' Edition', at the Word Up Community Bookshop (165th Street & Amsterdam Avenue).

Founded in 1974 by Long Beach resident, Cynthia Galles, The Found Theatre has been producing original, avant garde plays for 40 years. When Galles, a tireless genius who wrote, directed, designed and acted in most of the Found's original productions, learned she had breast cancer, she knew that the experience, like other difficult issues her theatre had explored, would wind up on stage to educate and enlighten through the medium of comedy. In 2000, long-time Found videographer Mike Brown began documenting Galles' treatment and the creation of her acclaimed play about her breast cancer experience, 'One-Tit Wonder.' The resulting documentary, 'The Patron Saint of Sideshow,' draws from more than 100 hours of video of the rehearsal and production process of 'One-Tit Wonder,' and also incorporates contemporary interviews with Found Theatre company members and archival footage of previous Found productions shot by Brown during his more than 35 years with the theatre company. Uplifting and entertaining, 'Patron Saint of Sideshow' chronicles not only Galles' surreal battle with cancer, but the passion for theatre that allowed her to keep her small experimental theatre alive and well, against all odds, for more than 30 years.

I've seen BLUE MAN GROUP live quite a few times, and on this particular occasion I brought along my son for his second go around with the show. What's appealing to me is that there's still a freshness about their performances, even if a lot of the bits are familiar, such as: the camera tour down an audience member's throat, the snarky message board, the various rock poses, etc. There's certainly no denying the fact that they continually draw large, enthusiastic crowds. The current production that played the Peabody Opera House (April 25-27) provided a cool evening's entertainment, for fans and newbies alike.
