The Clog Weekend Omnibus: Bearly There Weekend

POSTED: Friday, March 12, 2010, 7:23 PM
Filed Under: Weekend Omnibus

Friday: First Friday was last week so all of you've got your highbrow art out of the way. Now it's time to travel off the beaten path, like at the Liberty Bears Art Show, where those big and brawny fairies get an arty makeover. Or check out local comic artist Box Brown's show at Brave New Worlds, where he displays works from his new graphic novle Everybody Dies. Did you know he's also into celeb portraiture?

Saturday: Former Pattern is Movement guitarist Corey Duncan strikes out on his own with his new band, the excellently-named Oh! Pears. At tonight's record release party he'll show off his version of rock music the orchestral way. Or orchestral music the rock way. Then pay a visit to Mama's boy Billy Shakes, who's got two Philly productions on top: King Lear and Romeo and Juliet.

Sunday: Mama Omnibus ain't happy 'bout the monsoon rains hitting Philly so that's why I plan on hitting the back-to-back-to-back screenings of serial killer triptych the Red Riding trilogy at the Ritz at the Bourse. Three movies, one ticket price, lots of Anglo-cinema lovin'. I'm there. But the rotting core of '70s-'80s Yorkshire is heady stuff, so afterward Red Riding, get to the Brewer's Plate at the Penn Museum to drink those English blues (and hopefully the rain) away.
