Thursday | Friday | Saturday | Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday Thursday 14 BEAN S SCENE. At the ripe old age of 29, Eleanor (nicknamed Bean) is finally escaping Boston, her beer-chugging paramour, and a terribly boring job, all for a chance at self-discovery as she travels across America. Moving from city to city, she relies on friends to help her get on down the road in Sleeping With Random Beasts, by Tucsonan and first-time novelist Karin Goodwin. See this week s Books section for details. Goodwin signs and discusses her book from 7 to 8 p.m. in Barnes & Noble Bookstore, 5130 E. Broadway. For details, call 745-9822. SWINGERS. The Tucson Swing and Dance Club is a non-profit ....
Courtesy Tucson Museum of Art The Tucson Museum of Art recently highlighted local multi-media artist Willie Bonner, whose work has appeared in the museum multiple times. Bonner’s art, which includes paintings and sculptures, serves as an “allegory of what it means to be Black in postmodern America.” This is accomplished in works such as “Cotton” (2018), which was Bonner’s contribution to TMA’s Arizona Biennial 2020 exhibit. The mixed media work on canvas features a cotton plant made entirely of tar and feathers, a fitting allusion to the days of slavery and Jim Crow, and black and white fusing together on a broad sheet, itself made of cotton. ....
If you ask internationally known vintage goods dealer Robert Slobby Robby Hall, reselling high-end streetwear sneakers is a lot like being a luxury used car salesman. The Netflix star is opening his newest concept on Saturday, Feb. 27, Generation Cool Sneaks, next to his flagship 90s retro store Generation Cool. It s no different than next door, Slobby says. If it s people cleaning out their garage and they want to sell us their old Air Jordan collection, that s cool. If it s newer, hypebeast stuff, that s cool too. We curate it, we make them look good, we put them under lights and sell it for about three times more. This is what we do. It s no different than a used car dealership. ....
Arizona Theatre Company debuted The Legend of Georgia McBride at the Temple of Music and Art. Right after that opening night performance, the play closed down. The company has mounted no more in-person plays in Tucson or in Phoenix ever since. Like so many other arts groups, ATC was stopped in its tracks by COVID. But only temporarily. After a failed effort to open up in January 2021, a month when the virus surged, the company is now feeling confident that it can stage a full season starting in September. “We will be back!” artistic director Sean Daniels exclaims. He believes theatre fans will come roaring back once the country gets safer. “Patrons are stir-crazy. And Tucson is so supportive.” ....
Last year around this time I was cheerfully writing about the great upcoming art exhibitions, dance concerts and plays scheduled for the spring: paintings at the UA’s Joseph Gross gallery by a talented young Liberian refugee; a modern dance in Reid Park by the up-and-coming Hawkinsdance troupe; and an Irish play by acclaimed playwright Martin McDonagh at the Rogue Theatre. I didn’t see any of them. They were all shut down by the coronavirus pandemic. Things are getting better now, we hope. The vaccine has arrived and this miracle drug just may bring us back to life eventually. ....
