Stage readings are interesting things. They are a quick and easy way to get some theater into your life but they kind of leave you wanting more.

I recently attended the stage reading of Cowboy Mouth at the charming CoHo Theater in NW Portland (2257 NW Raleigh St). Written in 1971 by Sam Shepard with help from the "Godmother of Punk" herself Patti Smith, this play is an autobiographical tail about Cavale and Slim, a couple of lost souls who have sequestered themselves in a hotel room, a sort of Rock and Roll ‘Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' if you will.

Cavale, played by Kate O'Grady, has kidnapped Slim, played by Sean McGrath, and is loosely holding him hostage in the Chelsea Hotel. Since this was just a reading the stage was set with only two stools for the actors and a narrator on the side.

Both actors did a great job of making it more than just a Read the rest of this entry »

Halloween 2007

I took this picture while wandering through SE Portland two years ago. You can see the full flickr set of 2007 Halloween pictures here. The last weekend of September has passed now, and Halloween is just around the corner. We are adding Portland Halloween events to this list. If you have any to add, comment there. This Halloween's on a Saturday, so it should be a big one.

This is one of Portland's best ethnic fests and if you missed day one of the Polish festival, you still have a chance on Sunday to see what it is all about. Beer, Sausage, Polka…yep, has it all

There are a lot of great events this evening in Portland, but none will likely be more interesting than the Wanderlust Yard Dogs show tonight.

Related: Portland EVENTS LISTINGS

From Press Release:

Wanderlust is honored to host a teeming bazaar of circus and song from the greatest shows on Earth

The focal music performance by The Yard Dogs, sewn throughout with their own vaudevillian vignettes; will be preceded by an immersive atmosphere of acrobats, jugglers, and dancers showing off their talents in and around the audience, close enough to touch; and the entire affair will culminate in a rhapsodous dance party with post-world party rocker Sidecar Tommy.

What better way to elevate the senses at the close of this storied and overstuffed Summer of 2009? Come together, beloved spirit cousins, and break a sweat together one more time before the leaves fall.

SATURDAY Sep. 26 9pm
YARD DOGS ROAD SHOW
