IN GOWAN RING, KATHRINE HEILESEN, A DICTIONARY OF BLOOD THEATER,
and more TBA
First Thursday, November 2nd
At Someday Lounge
125 NW 5th between Couch and Davis
$5 21+
Our monthly First Thursday Review begins with Ms. Kathrine Heilesen,
a wandering musician from Denmark who makes frequent stops in
Cascadia; similarly-itinerant medieval folk revivalists In Gowan
Ring, and another installment of everyone's favorite disturbing
puppet dramas based on recordings smuggled out of a hospital for
the criminally insane, A Dictionary of Blood Theater.
From now on we're going easy on the First Thursday crowd, throwing
up quick and punchy performances throughout the course of the
evening so you can catch your ration of magic on the fly. The
remainder of the bill will be filled by those with the strength to
fill it—come by and check in yourself if you like.
IN GOWAN RING
www.somedaylounge.com/perform...wan_ring
From the land of little Osmonds, comes this nomadic bunch of sprites
and pot-headed pixies, led by the enigmatic B'eirth and wielding
such modern day contraptions as sackbut, cornetto, cittern, psaltry,
zither, timbrel, whistles, bells, gongs and tons of other weird
sounding shit too numerous to mention. Epic lengthed drones are
nestled comfortably amidst some of the finest acid/psych/wyrdfolk
on this (or any other) planet.
KATHRINE HEILESEN
www.somedaylounge.com/perform...heilesen
Kathrine Heilesen plays old Nordic Folk mixed with experimental
world music and folk-rock. She plays the harp, guitar, bodhran,
davul, percussion, viola and vocal.
A DICTIONARY OF BLOOD THEATER
www.somedaylounge.com/perform..._theater
In a sense, there is no true, "real" theatre, only a black Cadillac
crushing life and squeezing the heart out of us, one act at a time.
It is appropriate then, that we cry, and mourn crushed lives,
appropriate to watch as well as to perform. Why puppets? Because,
by branch and root, from head to foot, there is not, nor art there
be, anything so deep so sad so fun so thought-provoking so shamelessly
despised so unrehearsed and prized as the beautiful blank darkness
that descends upon you as the flesh is opened to let another story
bleed forth.
The first installation of our new show Local man claims to have
seen god but can't give an account of what he saw (Decipher that!)
opens October 27 and runs throught the next two nights at the Someday
lounge in Portland Oregon, moving to other venues down the west coast
through October and November. This program deals with the erosion
of sanity in the modern world. It is a puppetry program, including
live actors and found objects, trash and treasures paraded before
you eyes.
