The Republican National Convention landed in the Twin Cities. The narratives that have emerged are naturally varied and often inaccurate (in print anyway). Bedlam Theatre is bringing these various stories together asking for first hand accounts and performance September 18th—20th for Because We Still Live Here.
This is what I saw:
On Monday Jeffry and I were [...]
RNC / Revolutionary Love / Troopers
Look to the Square Lake Festival
I packed enough summer into this past weekend to feel reasonably
content with the fading sunshine and early sunsets. All of my
Minnesota favorites—cool spring fed lakes, outdoor movies and music,
and long shady bike rides–were packed into 24 short hours. For
these memories I owe thanks to Paul Creager and the Square Lake
Film and Music Festival.
At 9:30 on [...]
Fringe / Plants / Beverages
Fringe is here, and I’m hangin’ out at Bedlam! And doing a show!

One of my summer projects has been planting [...]

Windy City blows by the Saddletramps
Number six and number seven in the WFTDA rankings met July 12th at the Cicero Stadium as Windy City (7) hosted the Saddletramps of Tucson (6). The rankings predicted a tight match up, but the motivation of the Windy City Rollers told the story for the hungry crowd. Coming off back-to-back losses at the East [...]
Voltage Fashion Amplifed (a late and obsolete review)
I’m a long time resident of the Twin Cities. I am lucky to be able to see things evolve in the city. I’ve seen buildings burn down, restaurants close, bridges collapse, city council people go to jail, and houses foreclose…
I’m 27 years old. Certainly not old enough to see neighborhoods turnaround or see a reduction [...]
Roller Derby Feb 24th
We’re honoring the dedicated waitstaff, butt whippers, bartenders, tatoo artists and union plumbers who have been our loyal fan base from the beginning.
Now is your chance to see our 2008 Rookies in action. The Garda Belts have been empty handed three season in a row. Could it be their season to dominate?
