At its best, Milcha Sanchez-Scott's is a charming (albeit dark) family drama that addresses coming of age, socioeconomic status, and tradition.
NEXUS/foundation for today's art is a champion of local artists of all stripes; their commitment to maintain gallery space dedicated to local emerging and experimental artists has rightfully earned them a rep as a Philly art institution. The fruits of their mission will be on display tonight, as they present their new members exhibitions with an opening reception.

Well, well, well. Week two of DanceBOOM! is under way, and Phillyist is even more excited after this week's show than we were after last week's. Ann Marie Mulgrew & Dancers weren't exactly what I was expecting, and I lied to you (not on purpose) about their start time -- but I'm going to blame both of those facts on the promise of the rain that never came, as the performance was supposed to be outdoors. Even if it had rained, there really wasn't any need to cancel or change the pre-show: all the ladies were carrying open umbrellas with them (bad luck indoors!). Nevermind if they were wearing all white. (Incidentially, the all-white gave me a scary sorority flashback. From those two days I was a Greek and had to find all-white clothing. Before I quit.) Mulgrew's piece was at least visually interesting, I just would have liked to see it on its full scale.
DanceBOOM! opened at the Wilma last night with an outdoor pre-performance by Raices Culturales Latinoamericanas, and indoor performances by Reactionaries, Tania Isaac Dance, and Chris Aiken. Phillyist was there and loved every minute of it (albeit some minutes more than others.)
