    <title>Punchline stand-up comedy | BYOB!</title>
    <description>&lt;p&gt;Punchline is the best show in town. No, silly, it&amp;#39;s not the local middle school&amp;#39;s production of Cats -- it&amp;#39;s THE BEST SHOW IN TOWN! Punchline is not only BYOB, but it&amp;#39;s a mere $5 to get in. Cheap. Date. City. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The show&amp;#39;s fast-paced and ridiculous, awkward, hopefully hilarious, and always entertaining -- local comedians each get four minutes onstage to work their magic.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;img src=&quot;http://a688.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/33/l_320af0ab2ccc503f768eacea59020e57.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt; </description>

Each troupes gets 25 minutes to show you what they&amp;#39;ve got and you get three vastly different improv experiences for the price of one. Over fifteen troupes are cycling through these slots so you&amp;#39;ll never see the same show twice. Troupes include local troupes and guest troupes from around the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Check out this week&amp;#39;s line-up in the Events Calendar!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

    <title>Radio Silence</title>
    <description>&lt;p&gt;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.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Thurs - Sun)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

    <title>Lovey and Lovey</title>
    <description>Lovey and Lovey&amp;mdash;ColdTowne&amp;rsquo;s Michael Jastroch and Tami Nelson bring their award winning (Best of Fest 2005 Austin Sketch Festival and 2008 Frontera Fringe Fest) sketch comedy revue to the United States Art Authority Fridays in July. Lovey and Lovey trade in world-weary quips that follow in the grand tradition of The Thin Man&amp;#39;s wet-whistled wits Nick and Nora. Over sweaty glasses of Dewars and a rapidly filling ashtray, Lovey and Lovey snarkily recount their shared worldly adventures in a modern take on the screwball comedy, trading the kind of stinging barbs and thinly veiled hostilities that are the hallmark of any successful marriage. Love, after all, is a many-splendored pain in the ass. Lovey and Lovey will be joined by Luna Tart, Ramirez and Gilstrap, McNichol and May and Le Sexy. Presented by ColdTowne Theater.</description>

    <title>the vestige group presents- The 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>

    <title>A Skull In Connemara</title>
    <description>&lt;p&gt;Irish playwriting phenomenon Martin McDonagh shot to world recognition with his Leenane trilogy, &lt;em&gt;A Skull in Connemara,&lt;/em&gt; is the middle play and is the only writer since Shakespeare to have had four plays performed concurrently in London. Two of his plays have also run concurrently on Broadway and McDonagh is the recipient of several awards including four Tonys. As a young man, McDonagh absorbed the rhythms of speech and way of life of his Gaelic-speaking-father, his extended Irish family, the London neighborhood where he lived, and the TV soaps and movies that he loved. The result is his anarchic and darkly comic writing. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; In this play, local grave-digger Mick Dowd, exhumes more than bodies when he has to dig up and dispose of seven year old corpses to make room for new ones. One corpse just happens to be that of his dead wife, Oona, and village rumors begin to resurface about his part in her death. In the meantime, gormless copper, Thomas Hanlon dreams of police stardom in the style of American cop shows, and his younger brother, Mairtin, a loutish and occasionally eloquent troublemaker, ends up with the grisly task of helping Mick to dig the graves. Through it all, Maryjohnny Rafferty, the Hanlon&amp;#39;s poteen-slugging, sly-eyed granny, keeps up a running commentary on the bingo, the weather and the village gossip (from 27 years ago to the present) while having a few digs of her own.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tickets:&lt;/strong&gt; $12/Each&lt;/p&gt;               &lt;p class=&quot;quick_links&quot;&gt;                                 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.celticcenter.org/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;icon&quot; src=&quot;http://www.nowplayingaustin.com/images/icon-tickets.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; width=&quot;20&quot; height=&quot;18&quot; /&gt;Buy                 Tickets&lt;/a&gt;                               &lt;/p&gt;               &lt;p class=&quot;quick_links&quot;&gt;                                 &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:lorellaloftus@yahoo.com&quot;&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;icon&quot; src=&quot;http://www.nowplayingaustin.com/images/icon-email.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; width=&quot;19&quot; height=&quot;17&quot; /&gt;Email                 for More Info&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dates:&lt;/strong&gt; July 20-August 5, 2007&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Times:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Thursday-Saturday 8:00pm, Sunday 6:00pm&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;quick_links&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

    <title>LADIES OF THE 80S: VOLUME 2</title>

After compiling all of the videos we wanted to put into the program, we realized that we were trying to make a Sing-Along show that was almost five hours long. The solution, of course, was to put together a whole new show that built upon the awesomeness of the first but added even more. This time around we&amp;#39;ll right the wrongs we committed by not having ELECTRIC YOUTH in the first show. We&amp;#39;ll put in more Cyndi Lauper with SHE BOP and TRUE COLORS. Our Mondays will be manic and the rain will come again, falling on our heads like a memory. We won&amp;#39;t have a theater downtown until the Ritz opens in September, but we&amp;#39;re keeping the Sing-Alongs alive through the summer at the Village with Ladies of the 80s Volume 2 on Friday nights in August! Let&amp;#39;s get physical, physical! &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Location:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Alamo Village&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kid Policy:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;18 and up; Children 6 and up will be allowed only with a parent or guardian.

    <title>Master Pancake Theatre: HOME ALONE</title>

Featuring freakish wunderkind Macaulay Culkin (HOME ALONE 2, ummm&amp;hellip;) in the movie that catapulted him out of obscurity and into the arms of Michael Jackson. HOME ALONE stars Culkin as Kevin, an 8 year old boy whose entire family abandons him during the holidays, leaving him at home alone (the title is true!) while they fly to France and forget about him. Director Chris Columbus shows us the humorous side of child neglect as Kevin is forced to fend for himself, eking out a meager day-to-day subsistence, while two violent criminals (Daniel Stern, Joe Pesci) attempt to break into his house, take his belongings and kill him. Culkin won the Haley Joel Osment Award for preternaturally annoying precociousness by a tiny actor in this film, as well as a citation from the Norwegian Ministry of Culture for single-handedly resuscitating the popularity of Edvard Munch&amp;rsquo;s seminal expressionist painting &amp;ldquo;The Scream&amp;rdquo; with his now iconic mock-terrified hands-on-face expression on movie posters. The movie also features a small, but forgettable turn by Larry Hankin, the guy who played the actor who played Kramer in the fake sit-com &amp;ldquo;Jerry&amp;rdquo; on &amp;ldquo;Seinfeld&amp;rdquo;. Join Master Pancake as hilarity ensues this December!

    <title>Dear Fraility</title>
    <description>&lt;p&gt;Written over a five-year span of artistic wandering, Dear Frailty is a mix of darkly comedic character monologues and absurdist performance pieces. &lt;br /&gt;Sifting through his own thoughts and the lives of personalities that &amp;ldquo;may as well exist out there,&amp;rdquo; Simone revels in the utter failure to find any degree &lt;br /&gt;of meaning in the predictability of human nature. Material ranges from his own perverse vision of what the future holds for capitalism as well as a &lt;br /&gt;pyromaniac grocery store clerk with a profound dislike of the elderly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Arthur Simone is an improvisational actor, abstract expressionist artist and advocate of the culture of spontaneity. His artwork has been shown at &lt;br /&gt;galleries such as Chicago's Echo Gallery and art festivals such as Around the Coyote and the East Austin Studio Tour. Arthur's artwork has been&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;twice a nominated finalist for the prestigious Hunting Art Prize. A graduate of Oberlin College and a veteran of the Chicago stage with Suspicious &lt;br /&gt;Clowns and Moving Dock Theatre, he is a co-founder of Austin's ColdTowne Theater, where he teaches sketch, improv, and acting. On the screen, &lt;br /&gt;Arthur has starred in Jigsaw, The Evil One, A&amp;amp;E's Faith of My Fathers, Big Momma's House 2, and has been featured on the series Friday Night &lt;br /&gt;Lights. In 2007, he won the O'Henry Pun-Off World Championships (left), Austin's regional Air Guitar Championship, and most recently the Alamo &lt;br /&gt;Drafthouse's Air Sex World Championship.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

    <title>Pride and Prejudice</title>
    <description>&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;Shows: November 13, 14, 15, 18, 19, 20 at 8:00 PM&lt;br /&gt; November 15, 22 at 2:00 PM&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial;&quot;&gt;The University of Texas Department of Theatre and Dance presents Jane Austen&amp;rsquo;s classic novel adapted for the stage, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;PRIDE AND PREJUDICE&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;November 13 &amp;ndash; 22, 2009&lt;/strong&gt;, at the &lt;strong&gt;B. Iden Payne Theatre&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt; James Maxwell's &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;PRIDE AND PREJUDICE&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; is an adaptation of Jane Austen's timeless novel, originally published in 1813. The highly plot-driven comedy of manners set in 1811 centers on the Bennet family, a comfortable, but not excessively wealthy family living in the countryside of England. As the Bennets have five daughters and no sons, Mrs. Bennet's main objective in life is to find (wealthy) husbands for her daughters and retain Longbourn, the family estate, in the Bennet name. When Jane, the eldest daughter, falls in love with a wealthy landowner named Charles Bingle, Mrs. Bennet believes her problems solved. Bingly's snobbish family and his close friend and acquaintance Fitzwilliam Darcy, however, have other ideas.&lt;br /&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt; &quot;Maxwell&amp;rsquo;s fast-paced version of Austen&amp;rsquo;s classic novel captures the wit, grace, and anxieties of the familiar story and focuses the action on Elizabeth&amp;mdash;a period character who nevertheless remains intimately recognizable to modern audiences says PhD in Performance as Public Practice candidate and dramaturg, Christina Gutierrez. &quot;Given the wealth of both recent and historical adaptations of Austen, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;PRIDE AND PREJUDICE&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; offers at once a classic and a refreshing re-telling of a story that has so informed our cultural notions of love.&quot; &amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
