The story of Figaro, the ultimate put-upon (but wily) servant, and his aristocratic master-the vain, dissolute Count Almaviva-is a legendary battle famously treated by [Pierre Beaumarchais] and Mozart. In Serrand's Figaro, Fig (Steven Epp) and the Count ([Dominique Serrand]) are now old men hiding out during the Reign of Terror in a mansion across the street from the Bastille. Fig is in charge now, since he can move around the city and bring back food and news, while the Count hides in closets and vainly tries to live his former life of entitlement in the midst of revolution. In fully staged flashbacks the two relive their earlier, more romantic times, as a virile young Figaro (Bryan Boyce) plans his wedding to the gorgeous maid, Susanna (Momoko Tanno), and the handsome young Count (Bra...

Apart from the nightly arrival of a small boy who may or may not be Godofs messenger, their only encounters are with an arrogant figure named Pozzo (John Goodman) and his doggedly servile factotum, Lucky (John Glover), whose knotty relationship seems to cover all the best and worst possible interactions of master and servant Their two contrasting scenes, one at the center of each act, function mainly to divert Didi and Gogo from the agony of their own lives.

There's never a dull moment in Bomb-itty of Errors. Instead the moments are: cacophonie, phat, outrageous, ear-splitting, comic, groan-inducing, balletic, flat-footed, inventive, insipid and in-your-face. Four players appear as more characters than you can count. Two of them are white, Jason Babinsky and James Barry, and two are African-American, Darian [Darian Dauchan] and Griffin Matthews. There's an uh-oh moment when you first notice that Babinsky and Barry are playing the masters Antipholus while Dauchan and Matthews start out as the servants Dromio, but this turns out to be a director's device rather than an outrage to racial sensitivity. One set of master and servant have left Syracuse (the ancient one, not us) and have journeyed to Ephesus where they hope to become emcees: "Yo, w...

Blacks are always knocking on the wrong doors, talking to the wrong people and raising the wrong questions. Black leadership in the "Jena 6" case is no aberration. Judas goats wear two hats although they are unable to satisfy two masters. In the end, a servant will end up hating one master and loving the other. A servant's own self-hatred will usually identify his or her loving master. To understand the case of the "Jena 6" you have to reset the goalposts. The prosecution was given an unfair advantage. Instead of the starting point being Sept. 1, 2006, it was changed to Dec. 4, 2006. This means that Louisiana has immunized the white racists for their commission of hate crimes on or about Aug. 31, 2006. No one has challenged the prosecutor. [Mychal Bell] of the "Jena 6" will be sentenced...

I could just about hump Bernar Venet's leg. It's not about a game of master and servant with foreign dudes, it's just that the guy is a badass and I want to show him some love. What's more, he's a tough guy in the normally weenie-ish realm of conceptual art. Before a live studio audience, for one night only, Venet will offer a medical analysis of his own skull--a sort of explosive personal, prankish phrenology--and then he'll sit down and calmly sign some books. In addition to being obsessed and innovative with all things math and measurement oriented, Venet knows what it takes to beat, bend and sweet-talk a piece of steel into submission--witness his formidable series of arc sculptures, each precisely degreed and his torturously beautiful renderings of mathematical formulae. This is a ...

I heard a song on the radio today. It's called He's done enough by Beverly Crawford. I've heard the song before and each time that I've heard it I've felt a strange tugging at my heart and in my spirit. The song has an interesting chorus; "If the Lord never does anything else for me he's done enough." When I hear this song in my spirit it feels as though I'm being pulled in two different directions. Remembering what Jesus did for us all at Calvary I feel yes, that's right He's done more than enough. He endured great and terrible suffering in my place for sins that He never committed. This is a thing for which the more that I mature the more grateful that I become, particularly as I grow in understanding of what it means. I don't know anyone else living or dead who has done anything for ...
