Disturbing News
Chanticleer is premiering a new music theater work. Music and theater? Can they do that? Constantine is a religious movie, right? So that means the soundtrack must have a choir, right? Wilber-Clatonia High School in Nebraska is haunted:
It's said that a student once fell and died while working on a latter [sic] in the auditorium.. People have seen things move and fall on there own in the 'storage room' (located next to the auditorium). And the auditorium itself is the coldest place in the building with feelings of someone watching you. Music can be heard coming from the band room and choir room and voices can be heard also when in the school after dark.Music? Coming from the band and choir room, of all places??? That is disturbing. Residents of Cumbernauld, Scottland are begging the BBC to destroy their town (hat tip to ArtsJournal):
It was a groundbreaker in its day, with its concrete town centre on stilts designed by the architect Geoffrey Copcutt containing Britain's first indoor shopping mall. It even won architectural awards in the 1970s when brutalism was the flavour of the decade and provided the rose-tinted backdrop to the 1981 film about puppy love, Gregory's Girl. Things have taken a downturn since. In 2001 it won the Carbuncle Award for the most dismal place in Scotland, described by the judges as "a rabbit warren on stilts" and "soulless and inaccessible, something like Eastern Europe before the Wall came down".

Don't forget: Chanticleer did a staging of Britten's Curlew River back in 1994 & 1998. They also staged Tavener's Lamentations in 2002.
