Independent Journalism in Miami Needs You
We need to raise $10,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
You can hardly miss the bureaucratic blunders pervading nightly newscasts, but if you are looking for more babble, we have another option. Tonight the Arts at St. John’s, in conjunction with Fantasy Theatre Factory, will present readings of Eugene Ionesco’s The Bald Soprano and The Lesson. When Ionesco began learning English — as his third language — he was amazed by the repetitive and nonsensical phrases of his lessons, thus the workings of The Bald Soprano (La Cantatrice Chauve). Although it was originally written as a serious drama, audiences were amused and Ionesco quickly established himself in the theater of the absurd. Guests are welcome to bring a picnic and enjoy the meaningless banter of Ionesco’s characters on the back patio of St. John’s Church, which overlooks the canal. Admission is free, and chairs will be provided. Call 305-613-2325, or visit www.artsatstjohns.com.
