8pm» Faustus- Time:
- 8:00pm - 10:00pm
- Description:
- Having put his personal stamp on contemporary theater, David Mamet now performs the supremely audacious feat of reinventing the theater of the past. He does so by telling his own ingenious and eerily moving version of the tragedy of Dr. Faustus.
Mamet's Faustus--like Marlowe's and Goethe's before him--is a philosopher whose life's work has been the pursuit of "the secret engine of the world." Out of the clash between love and intellect and the fatal operation of Faustus's pride, Mamet fashions a work that is at once caustic and heart-wrenching and whose resplendent language marries metaphysics to con man's patter. A meditation on reason and folly, fathers and sons, and a breathtaking display of magic both literal and theatrical. - Company:
- Midwestern Theater Troupe
- Location:
- Nightingale Theater
- Admission:
- $10
- Reservation Required:
- No
- For Mature Audiences:
- No
- Time:
- 8:00pm - 10:00pm

- ICONS: The Lesbian and Gay History of the World, Vol. 3 debuted at the CNGLTF in 2006 and won the Best Solo Performance and Best Original Music awards. In the last segment of the trilogy, Estrada took on the roles of biblical Naomi, King James, Bessie Smith, Greg Louganis and Mary Cheney, the lesbian daughter of U.S. Vice-President Dick Cheney.
"Jade Esteban Estrada is a brilliant young writer and performer. It was an honor to experience the ministry of this modern pioneer of the gay movement, "states Rev. Troy Perry, Founder of the Worldwide Metropolitan Community Church.
"I've seen Jade Esteban on stage four times before, but when I saw him portraying Mary Cheney, I realized he wasn't only celebrating gay icons. He was using irony to tell us that not all of our gay icons are people that we love or respect. It was incredibly clever," stated Thaddius Novack, Creative Director of Jersey City Lesbian and Gay Outreach.
"What he is doing is important for our LGBTQ youth to experience. I was certainly educated tonight," stated Doreen DeJesus, Communications Director for Brooklyn Pride.
"Jade Esteban Estrada is not an icon by accident," warns Nicholas Snow of Notes from Hollywood. - Company:

- Old Crow - now on the last Saturday of every month!
Better (and more embarrassing) than Karaoke! Come to share your darkest secrets or just sit back and watch the struggle. From the respectable matron who confessed it was she who beat up "little Timmy" in her schooldays past, to the poor young schmuck who described a penchant for streaking and its consequences, Old Crow spans the generation gap and brings all together to romp in the mire of dirty secrets. Will you bare your soul for a shot of Old Crow?
...one person standing under the spotlight with a bottle of whiskey close at one hand, the truth in the other. What happens next is anyone's guess. -Tulsa World - Company:
