WEEKLY Night and Day Review of CRASH CABARET
Get in a Crash
By Nirmala Nataraj
You've gotta love the kids at New College of California's
Experimental Performance Institute. Equipped with a jaunty arsenal
of activist, queer, and experimental work, they'll make you believe, at
least for a moment, that art might really have the capacity to change
the world. Despite the EPI's claim to relentless
innovation, "Crash Cabaret: Where Queers Collide
(Heterosexuals encouraged to apply!)" is in keeping with San
Francisco's habitual multidisciplinary orgies, mixing burlesque, dance,
comedy, music, and film together in a heady brew. But that doesn't make
it any less appealing, especially given the topic of the hour (and yes,
it is just one hour): back to school. The festivities include moody performance
rock by the duo Dreamboat, Where Are You?,
as well as the frenzied orchestral maneuvers of Stink
(formerly of all-girl band Stink 69). The showcase also includes
the spoon-tapping high jinks of funny lady Mina
Liccione. You can even get in on the action at the "So
You Think You Can Prance" dance-off, or by sharing your old
detention woes at the "Fondest or Freakiest"
storytelling contest.
