Performing Arts Season Round-Up - The Science

Performing Arts Season Round-Up

With the ongoing SAG-ACTRA and Writer’s Guild strikes likely to cause a dearth of new movies or television series in the coming months, Calgarians would be well advised to take their search for quality content to the streets, taking advantage of the often under-utilized performing arts scene.

Modern Love rebuilds a Broken City

Modern Love rebuilds a Broken City

Chances are, if you’ve ventured past Calgary’s Electric Avenue lately, you’ve seen the neon beacon adorning Modern Love’s façade — two crossed daggers and a broken heart.

Shane Ghostkeeper: Keeper of Ghosts, Teller of Tales

Shane Ghostkeeper: Keeper of Ghosts, Teller of Tales

A listener could be forgiven for assuming, based on exactly the first minute of Into the Night, track one of Shane Ghostkeeper’s new solo album, Songs For My People, that this might be his most ambitious, esoteric and experimental work yet.

Calgary feminist film series to showcase the work of pornographer Erika Lust

A League of Their Own, A Night of Lust: Calgary feminist film series to showcase the work of artful pornographer Erika Lust

It’s hard not to automatically associate the seedier side of things with the term "adult theatre.” Neon matinees shrieking "PEEP SHOW” and “LIVE! NUDE! GIRLS!” on a smoky New York street, as leather-jacketed, bell-bottomed, late night denizens of the ’70s city bustle by hawkers trying to lure late-night lotharios inside.

The big must-sees: A taste of the winter music festival

BIG Must-Sees: A sampler of some of the acts to catch at this year’s winter music and arts festival

After a series of pandemic-related false starts resulting in a cancelled 2021 festival, and a revised format, multi-weekend festival in April 2022, Calgary’s BIG Winter Classic is back in a big way for 2023, with a stacked roster and guaranteed stellar performances in the doldrum-defeating January music festival format we once knew and loved.

Bathroom reading: Documentary of the NYC indie-rock scene.

Bathroom Reading: Documentary of NYC’s indie-rock scene will send you back to the literary source

Meet Me In the Bathroom, the documentarized version of Lizzy Goodman’s 2017 oral archive of the late '90s/early aughts trajectory of New York rock ‘n’ roll revivalists like The Strokes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, TV on the Radio, Interpol, and LCD Soundsystem, though impressive for the sheer scale of its “you had to be there” found footage, might be better served as a visual companion to the book.

Post-apocalyptic Predictions and Preoccupations

Post-apocalyptic Predictions and Preoccupations: Local band’s latest Arrangements a prescient, post-punk, pandemic prophecy

Upon first listen, Calgary’s own Preoccupations could easily have named Arrangements, their fourth studio album, Auspices instead. Even the band’s own name change from the controversial Viet Cong to Preoccupations would have been justly apt had they settled on Premonitions instead.

The loneliness of a long distance strummer

Laura Jane Grace: The loneliness of a long distance strummer

Around the same time Laura Jane Grace of Against Me! was experiencing serious episodes of gender dysphoria, Social Distortion played Calgary’s MacEwan Ballroom.

The Devil and Mr. Daniel: Spoon prepara su disco de rock 'n' roll

The Devil and Mr. Daniel: Spoon dish up their most rock ‘n’ roll record to date with Lucifer on the Sofa

I turn my camera on, but Britt Daniel does not.  The Spoon frontman’s publicist insisted upon a Zoom interview, so I’m momentarily thrown when I realize the next 24 minutes and 46 seconds will be spent interviewing someone embodied only by an ominous black box labelled ‘BRITT DANIEL,’ that faintly flashes every time his gravelly drawl breaks the silence like some sort of Texan HAL 9000.
