A New Interpretation of Romeo and Juliet

As the crowd walked into the theatre room at the New Diorama on Wednesday, February 11, 2015 it was soon understood that this was not going to be a “normal” interpretation of Shakespeare’s famous Romeo and Juliet. First thing, that seemed peculiar was how the performers were warming up on stage while the audience walked in. They appeared completely unfazed by the audience’s presence and continued to warm-up by stretching, making strange noises and listening to music. The firs

Whips, Handcuffs, and 81.6 Million Dollars

Anyone who is anybody knows that 50 shades of grey came out this past weekend. Whether you support it or hate it, the movie brought in a lot of chatter. Many people protested the movie outside theaters, and in one case a women even got taken out of the theatre in hand cuffs.

To be Lazy or to be Healthy? That is the Question

Many people that wake up on the daily basis feel disappointed with the current state of their lives. The consistent routine of getting up, going to work, going to sleep and starting all over again has created the notion of what some may call limbo.
