Now at 7 Stages


Double Edge Theatre’s The UnPOSSESSED at 7 Stages celebrates the 400th anniversary of Cervantes’ novel Don Quixote by “fusing popular and circus arts, including acrobatics, puppetry, aerial theatre and commedia, with live original music….” The small ensemble of 6 players means each in turn gets to climb and swing on makeshift trapeze, sing and play instruments as well as portray vivid characters from Renaissance Spain. It's very intimidating.

But then as one who neither sings, dances nor acts (a triple non-threat) I'm easily intimidated. I've even been know to get jealous watching
Wayne Newton play 2-bar solos (of mostly 2 notes) on "13 different instruments!"







Show off.
But can he usher on a Friday night?
