Fringe Picks: Thursday
Thursday, 9.13
- Festival Of Lies: What stands out about Festival Of Lies (see video) is the sheer honesty brought to you by talented performers who will not dance around the many inconvenient truths planted like mines in our society. The collaboration builds with in-your-face reality and ends with an all-night performance this Saturday at 11pm. 6pm, $20, Painted Bride Art Center, 230 Vine Street
- DELTA: Call up mom and grandma, and tell them it’s ladies’ night. Three women confront their fear of death in a dance against the inevitable. Afterwards, you should take them to the Cave for a completely different kind of dancing. 8pm, $15, St. Andrew’s Chapel, 4201 Spruce Street
- PHONEME: Here’s a 3-day series that you should commit to because electro-acoustic is hot right now, and each performance will be different, so you’ll be hearing enough fresh tunes from BSC and Bowerbird artists to convince you to make that call. 8pm, $10, Circle of Hope, Broad and Washington Branch, 1125 S. Broad Street, 2nd Floor
- Recitatif: We all have our race perceptions, and most of ‘em aren’t too accurate. A Toni Morrison adaptation will further play on the ambiguity that drives these cultural misconceptions. 9:30pm, $15, Mum Puppettheatre, 115 Arch Street
- CAGEMATCH: Two of Philly’s best improv groups battle it out in a 25-minute standoff. The audience will vote the winner, so don’t get it twisted. 10pm, $10, 2nd Stage @ The Adrienne, 2030 Sansom Street
