Theatre Review: Realist play worthy of ovation

I gave “Good People” a standing ovation without hesitation. Everything else is secondary. There are many plays in Albuquerque that are absolutely exceptional for one reason or another: fine acting, clever scripts, creative technics. All these achievements are worthy of praise and notice.

Their life stories and career goals are radically different, but they have one important thing in common: all three women got pregnant and considered abortion. The Nov. 19 vote on the “Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act” has sparked heated local conversation on New Mexico’s late-term abortion laws as well as broad debates about abortion in general.

Theater Review: Play crashes and stays burning

Entertainment should strive to provide what the audience wants, but not in the way they expect. Or if they can’t be bothered, just some hackneyed trash will do. The Aux Dog Theatre has selected “Boeing Boeing,” a 1960s French sex farce, as its oddly dated choice for its current production.

Book review: Erotic book features happy endings

I’m not really one to read erotic books. I have nothing against them, and I know plenty of people who find excitement in reading tales of the kinky, but I’m just not one of them. When I first opened “The Big Book of Orgasms: 69 Sexy Stories,” I wasn’t quite sure what I was in for.

Art trio makes passion a reality

The droning roar reverberates against the wooden floorboards as the movements of a lithe woman weave about the stage. A hum sounds again as a man with a gray ponytail blows into the 3-foot didgeridoo. Behind them, the soft swishing and scratching of charcoal sticks on paper.
