    <title>Radio Silence</title>
    <description>VORTEX Repertory Company and Uprise! Productions proudly present                the world premiere of Radio Silence: a word opera, a fresh-to-death                new bullet in the chamber from award-winning playwright, Zell Miller                III. Radio Silence: a word opera is a fast paced rhythmic ride.                This hip-hop theater performance piece fuses the physicality of                modern dance with high-energy spoken word and the sensibilities                of street politics. This new word opera is a choreopoem that challenges                and redefines taboos including race, sex, religion and politics,                with the back-drop of a fading media: the radio.</description>

    <title>ColdTowne Improv</title>
    <description>&lt;p&gt;ColdTowne has not only been to almost every single major comedy festival in North America, they also run Texas' fastest growing comedy training center and recently have been featured on The Onion. Catch them on their home turf every Saturday night at The ColdTowne Theater.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tonight's very special guest: The Frank Mills&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Austin's Favorite Comedy Group&quot;&lt;br /&gt;- Austin Chronicle Readers Poll 2006&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Hardest Working Improv Group&quot;&lt;br /&gt;- Austin Improv Collective Awards&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Their shows are improv sex. They are passionate, awkward, hot, comical, sticky, shocking, loving, liquid, dangerous, electric and (sometimes) a sudden, intuitive perception of or insight into the reality or essential meaning of life.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;- Sara Farr, local performer&lt;/p&gt;</description>

    <title>Hubris</title>
    <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;August 4th &amp;amp; 11th, 8pm: The Debutantes and Vagabonds&amp;#39; &lt;em&gt;Hubris &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a different world, there is a city divided in two, both physically and philosophically. One side is dubbed the Alliance, and the other side is dubbed the Coalition. Each faction is the sworn enemy of the other. At some point, centuries before our story takes place, the city decided that their wars had been too destructive, so they created a somewhat more civilized manner of dealing with each other: Contest. &lt;br /&gt;Both sides of the city operate as typical municipalities would in our world, except for where issues concerning both sides are concerned. Contest is a sporting form of politics that allows one contender from each side to duke it out with the other. It is the fantasy of all young men in the city that they become contenders. John and Nick grew up on the alliance side of the city, and shared the dream of one-day being contenders for their side. This dream comes true for John, but not for Nick who isn&amp;rsquo;t allowed to fight because of a medical condition. &lt;br /&gt;This story is about Nick coming to grips with his insecurities over not being chosen to be a contender. His friendship with John, his relationship with his girlfriend Violet, his career, and even the city is eventually affected by Nick&amp;rsquo;s inner turmoil. Will Nick&amp;rsquo;s internal battle destroy him and all of those around him? Or is there hope for him? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.4thwalltickets.com/store/show/53&quot;&gt;Purchase tickets to &lt;em&gt;Hubris&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;</description>

    <title>the vestige group presents teh New Jersey Book of the Dead</title>
    <description>(Austin, TX) the vestige group, a local non-profit theatre company, will open their newest production, The New Jersey Book of the Dead by Jason Grote, Thursday October 27 at 8 pm at Hyde Park Theatre.
 
Big Brother meets shamanic traces. Labor unions merge with multimedia. The vestige group takes on the southwest premiere ( and second ever production)  of Jason Grote's new work,The New Jersey Book of the Dead , and enters a world where  the surface is not all there is. Where people struggle to hold on to emotional connection in a world gone technological.
 
Omnivore is listening.
 
 
Full Run Dates

October 27-29, and November 1-3, 8-10 Thursday- Saturday at Hyde Park Theatre
Tickets are $15-25. Thursdays performances are pay as you wish.
 
 
For more information on tickets, go to www.texasperforms.com 


Fresh off of  a succesful month run of Brilliant Traces and a Best of Show billing at FronteraFest's Short Fringe (Peter Snoad's My Name is Art), thevestige group is continuing the trend it began with Neil LaBute's Fat Pig of bringing insightful and entertaining productions to the Austin theatre community. Founded on Craigslist in 2006 and maintained by young and dedicated theatre nuts, the  vestige group is turning theatre on its side with productions that challenge both  the actors and the audience, performing in standard theatre venues as well as in non-traditional settings, such as private homes. 

For more information on this or any of the vestige group's  productions,contact the vestige group at (512-538-4769) or by e-mail at thevestigegroup@hotmail.com. the vestige group is a sponsored project of Austin Circle of Theaters.</description>
