"Sxip's Hour of Charm" "Sxip's Hour of Charm" has long been part of the line-up at Joe's Pub at the Public Theater in New York. Now the eclectic variety show comes to Boston, or more accurately, Cambridge, at the Zero Arrow Theatre in Harvard Square. Performances will take place Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from September 14- 30, 2007. Regularly described as indescribable, "Sxip's Hour of Charm" is a hybrid of circus, music, cabaret, sideshow and burlesque. Each show will feature 6-8 different acts, including songwriters, circus artists, human beat boxers, story tellers, comics, aerialists and more. Plus, the lineup will change each weekend. Amanda Palmer, of the The Dresden
Dolls, is helping to bring this curious show to Boston, where
Sxip promises three weekends of music and performance that hope to
delight, confuse and enlighten even the most cynical members of any
seen-it-all audiences. Week
Three (Sept. 28-30) brings AJ Silver (left),
the sexiest rope-spinning cowboy ever to come out of the Bronx; songwriter
Dayna Kurtz, a genre-defying smoky alto singer/songwriter;
the sweet, sexy raunchy storytelling of Greg Walloch
who uses his own cerebral palsy to challenge preconceptions of human
disabilities with his provocative comedic monologues; the return
of Una Mimnagh performing knotted spinning falls on
the single hung rope ("corde de lisse"); and Sxip Shirey's
stories of quantum mechanics and red blood cells. (One additional
artist is to be announced). -- OnStage Boston 08/06/07 |
