Art therapy
Recently, whenever director Kevin Humbert got
together with his Art Chat group, all anyone wanted to talk about
was the war. So after listening to everybody from journalists to
politicians to academics express their opinions, Humbert and his
circle felt it was time the artistic community voiced its views. The
result was 'Nine One One,' a series of performances compiled
by more than 30 Bay Area writers, directors, dancers, actors, and
visual artists, including a docu-theater piece by Unconditional
Theatre's John Warren that explores flag waving in Anna Deavere
Smith fashion: by conducting interviews with locals and turning
the conversations into a script. On the lighter side, comedy-dance
luminary Rebecca Salzer examines survival instincts in the style
of a National Geographic special. Proceeds benefit Global
Exchange. Through Sat/15. 8 p.m., Exit Stage Left, 156 Eddy,
S.F. Free (donations accepted). (415) 437-5527.
