American Grilled Cheese - Recommendation

We saw American Grilled Cheese last night and would recommend the Baton Rougians check it out. I blogged the press release verbatim last week. The performance was set up like the Pena performance at the Swine palace a while back, with mini-stages scattered throughout the space. The performers, performed sometimes on the stages, sometimes in the crowd, sometimes alone, sometimes interacting with each other, and sometimes interacting with the crowd. There was also visual art and video pieces. The content, as far as I can describe, had a lot to do with stereotypes and sexual identity within an American context. I was afraid the show might turn into privledged white college students bitching about capitalism, but that didn't happen. There was also some strong work regarding the war.

If you do go, bring some extra cash for the bar. If you go, go tonight so you can make it to Movies and Music on the Lawn tomorrow.
