voices from the world that surrounds her Many of the voices in both present and past jeer or bully others give elliptical glimpses at her memories of family or lovers but precious little of it is positive in any case The memories often get violently erased in a very literal way with the image painted over or scratched out homelessness is never unraveled; she simply is a fragile pouring her heart into song but remaining largely abstract and aimless The combination of Mullarkey’s wistful music and Walsh’s command of the production elements builds a striking environment and creates a mood The problem isn’t that the snippets of memory don’t combine into a linear narrative–they don’t and they need not; as Walsh’s program note says the abstraction and strangeness come from the events and scenes passing through Grace’s troubled and bleary mind But the pieces don’t combine into a feeling of personhood “I hope what it does have at its center is a real sense of this character and what she wants.” While the videos (by Jack Phelan) give us something of where Grace has come from it’s intentionally muddy; the images are scratchy with desaturated color and intentionally oblique angles and I did not get the sense of family structure and relationships that the script delineates But how she’s surviving and what she wants which makes it hard for the theoretically redemptive ending to have much impact Mullarkey’s moody songs are musically intricate and rich and Gilmore performs them with raw intention but the lyrics have the quality of dark nursery rhyme; they’re full of affect and imagery but not interiority The whole thing feels like an elaborate music video sequence displaying the songs to great effect but with only a gesture at narrative or character as a way of keeping visual interest while we list I wanted more humanity and more of Grace’s agency in the mix Katie Davenport’s set continues to evolve new meanings throughout the piece as the elements mirror Grace’s oscillation between past and present from the dangers of the menacing world to the safety of home Gilmore embraces the physical environment with gusto and crawling into bits of it in unpredictable ways Adam Silberman’s lighting enhances mood with a variety of instruments and palettes shifting from follow spots to stark house lights Jack Phelan’s just out-of-focus videos capture the vague And Helen Atkinson’s striking sound design brings in the menace that Grace feels all around her But it’s hard to build a successful solo show that so thoroughly resists both narrative coherence and interiority There’s an opacity to Grace that makes her story feel generic rather than particular; she’s an archetype of a damaged woman Grace may find a “room of her own” in the end but it feels like retreat rather than claiming space And without a sense of who Grace is in the world why should we care whether she retreats from it Ann’s Warehouse + Abbey Theatre + Irish Arts Center Scenic Design Katie Davenport;

Thanks to the leadership of local councilman and parishioner Bob Kirby, along with the craftsmanship of Down East Preservation, the doors have been carefully returned to their original splendor. The wooden doors, constructed using the mortise and tenon technique, have stood as a gateway to worship for over 165 years. Down East Preservation, a local restoration specialist, emphasized the importance of maintaining the historical integrity of the structure. “Anything other than restoring them would have been a grave disservice,” said representatives from the company when they were orginally approached about the project. As part of the recent refurbishing effort, years of paint and plaster were removed from both the original doors and original bricks of the church entranceway. Down East Preservation also sourced and installed a period-appropriate light fixture to replace the more modern motion-sensor lights that had been added in recent years. This new addition further enhances the historical authenticity of the church’s entryway. During the blessing ceremony for the newly restored doors, St. Ann’s pastor Father Jairo Maldonado reflected on the deeper meaning of the doors to the church. “These are more than physical doors. What they mean is that you are entering God’s house. We’re invited to come here and receive the gift of Jesus, who came to love you, to die for you, and to save you,” he explained.  The restoration of the St. Ann Church doors not only preserves an important piece of local history but also reaffirms the church’s role as a place of worship and community. Thanks to the dedication of local leaders and skilled artisans, these doors will continue to welcome generations of parishioners for years to come.

This Edinburgh Fringe hit enacts the impossibility of everyday life–on literal treadmills Dominic Weintraub of Pony Cam in Burnout Paradise The metaphors in Burnout Paradise could hardly be less subtle: here we all are on the treadmill of our day-to-day routines overfull with the mundane tasks it takes to successfully “adult”–feed ourselves wrangle all the endless paperwork generated by modern life—and then with everything else we want to fit around the edges under the category of “leisure.” Actually Hugo Williams–four fifths of the Australian performance collective Pony Cam–are literally running on treadmills as they symbolically perform said tasks (or analogous versions thereof that can be performed while running on a treadmill in the middle of St and serving the audience on-demand Gatorade The treadmills are labeled with rough handmade placards: Survival and each of the four on the treadmills will get a ten-minute slot to attend to each category They tell us the rules up front: They’ve assigned a “mega-task” to each of these buckets They need to complete all four tasks within 40 minutes or the audience is entitled to their money back They’re also trying to beat a group record for greatest collective distance run on the treadmills during the show And they’ve only succeeded about 25 percent of the time in the performances completed thus far (The show was presented at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this summer; I saw the second performance in New York.)  that task is to cook and serve a three-course pasta dinner (yes someone running on a treadmill has access to kitchen tools and an induction burner; yes they swear that they’ve done extensive safety testing) it’s completing a grant application from start to finish and submitting it before the last of the time countdown—with the application projected on a screen overhead (And they are ruthless in their accounting; at the performance I saw internet hiccups caused some lags at the end but no forbearance on the time clock was extended.) For Performance each will perform an act related to a childhood memory–a song a full dance routine (all of these have their moments of exquisite cringe; the jazz routine performed by Bird was perhaps the high point though Strom’s musical stylings were a close second) there’s a whiteboard on the props table containing a giant list of smaller tasks ranging from small acts of personal hygiene like shaving or brushing teeth to social niceties like wrapping a gift or playing a game of Bingo to things that feel so out there in context that it’s hard to imagine achieving them–Deer hunt all the objects required to complete the smaller tasks including the ingredients for the pasta meal which is served to two members of the audience Since the performers can’t leave their treadmills audience members start to be enlisted from the beginning to fetch and carry The first request is simple—two volunteers to eat the meal being cooked (though those wary of audience participation should be warned that the diners’ opinions will be asked later) Then there’s grabbing items from the prop table: the dinner ingredients; the banana needed for Leisure to “eat fruit” or the Rubik’s Cube that needs to be solved Then Admin starts needing help with the grant application–suggestions for an outdoor performance the audience’s role keeps escalating on the other ones: suddenly it feels like half the audience is taking and submitting photos sitting down on the stage for a game of bingo or putting on costumes to trick or treat at a cardboard door The tasks get sillier and sometimes actively mortifying for the audience member participating–but by then It’s chaotic and splashy and overwhelming and silly But it’s nonetheless built on a foundation of real emotions: on the one hand the “runner’s high” of thinking you’ve cracked the code of doing it all; on the other (The show introduces each performer with a graphic that includes their current stress level.) And while there’s something serious at the root of it and the performers enact their tasks with utmost sincerity–even the most ridiculous elements–the overall tone also embraces the absurdity of the whole endeavor (And they cap it off with a little pop of joy in the form of a treadmill-based dance number that you may recognize from a music video a while back.) Perhaps the best thing about Burnout Paradise is the way it makes a collective of its entire audience Pony Cam’s mission is to devise performance works that create transformative communal experiences and there’s no question they did that here I’m not sure this particular configuration of St Ann’s was the best way to experience the show–it felt like a lot of time was spent just moving audience members into and out of the seating risers–but we were all in it together from the audience members volunteering their nonprofit affiliations to the grant proposal to the trick-or-treaters to all of us batting birthday balloons around the seating area but the indefatigable performers did not–and neither did the audience The final finish was a nail-biter; I won’t tell you how it came out but I doubt anyone would have asked for their money back anyway–at that point we were sharing responsibility for the outcome Cast includes Created and performed by Claire Bird LinkShow Details & Tickets TrendingCommercialDallasAHarwood International scores recapitalization deal for Uptown HQSaint Ann Court was scheduled to be sold at foreclosure after $138M default Harwood International saved its headquarters with a midnight-hour recapitalization deal The developer reached a deal with Life Company to recapitalize Saint Ann Court the 25-story centerpiece of the Harwood District at 2501 N Harwood repaid the $138 million mortgage on the property The property was scheduled to be sold at a foreclosure auction on Jan News of the deal comes less than three months after Atlanta-based Cousins Properties purchased the property’s mortgage from New York-based investor KKR Real Estate The firm developed the 25-story building in 2009 SIGN UPThe recapitalization deal is the cherry on top of what Harwood called “an extraordinary year.”  It leased more than 340,000 square feet of office space and continued with plans to develop Harwood No.15 which is expected to start construction this year The Harwood District spans 19 blocks in Dallas’ Uptown neighborhood a popular destination for companies looking to upgrade their office space It’s an even hotter investment opportunity now that some of the world’s largest banks are planting flags in the popular neighborhood adjacent to downtown Dallas “Y’all Street,” Texas’ answer to Wall Street is taking shape in Uptown with the development of NorthEnd a Hunt Realty project that will include a $500 million campus for Goldman Sachs a Pacific Elm building that will house Bank of America and website in this browser for the next time I comment Δdocument.getElementById( "ak_js_1" ).setAttribute( "value" Please support local news—East Cobb News—during Small Business Week!

Become one. As the archdiocese discontinues regular Masses at St Ann’s and shifts its operations to nearby St another historically African American church it’s a painful time for those who have considered it their spiritual home He’s tired of the church being on the “wrong side of theology” with its history of racism women unable to be ordained as priests and homophobia “They’re not gonna get better.” The lifelong Catholic isn’t sure what comes next for him and his faith Moore was born and raised in Baltimore and baptized at 3 months old His grandmother was a devout Catholic by way of New Orleans The seamstress paid for Moore and his seven siblings to go to Catholic school and for their uniforms which he wore from kindergarten through 8th grade He is among a group that created a scholarship fund for young Black men to attend Loyola Blakefield a private Catholic college prep school for boys Moore firmly believes there should be “reparations not separations” as far as Black Catholics and their churches Black congregants stayed around even when racism and prejudice were prevalent within their church Moore remembers a separate holy water font and being restricted to the back of certain churches Moore and others stuck with the Catholic Church Ann and did what they could for the church and its neighbors Ann faced closure because of an unstable roof in the 1990s they launched a “Pennies to Heaven” campaign and raised 3 million pennies — $30,000 — to repair it When East Baltimore neighbors were overexposed to fumes from a bus yard they rose up to help fight the environmental injustice And, when several parishioners noticed there weren’t any Black saints from North America recognized by the Catholic Church, they pushed for the expedited canonization of the “Saintly Six.” Moore and longtime St Ann’s parishioners Delores Moore and Mary Sewell even took their cause to Rome in October 2023 Moore often says that he was Black before he was Catholic and he has long been outspoken about the lack of acknowledgement of the contributions of Black Catholics to his faith His home office is filled with Muhammad Ali memorabilia, Frederick Douglass posters and black-and-white photos of friends and family. He’s written for The AFRO and the Black Catholic Messenger — a piece that outlet published in June is headlined, “How I became an angry Black Catholic.” he sends a message to Pope Francis through the social media platform X usually shares a message each day to his 18.4 million followers Ann’s is closing and that there’s a feeling of hopelessness and Sewell met with the archdiocesan officials twice to talk about the possibility of remaining open They submitted a seven-page plan to strengthen the church pledging to build a solid relationship with the Mother Seton Academy next door reinvigorate their community health and wellness fair The appeal was denied in a letter from Archbishop William Lori Their last hope is an appeal to Rome to get the Baltimore archdiocese’s order rescinded Wenceslaus will be shifted to a newly merged parish based at St “They think they can move people around like pieces on a chessboard,” Moore said has stressed that “none of these decisions were easy.” But he said last spring that the historical significance of St Moore and his jar of pennies made their way to St He wore a shirt printed with the names of the Saintly Six A sign urging people to save the church from closure still hung near the front entrance of the Gothic-revival church with its sky-high steeple that can be seen from blocks away He made his way to the front of the church grabbing the top of each pew as he passed Moore and several other parishioners prayed for the Saintly Six Tell Them I’m a Child of God,” and true to his rebellious streak People filled nearly all of the middle pews from front to back Sharon Johnson-Stewart said it was one of the saddest days of her life she also grew up in the church and attended St “It’s our faith that’s gonna keep us going,” Johnson-Stewart added The choir electrified the church during the hourslong service People gave cheek-to-cheek hugs and reached out to clasp hands from the nearby pews Others sang and lifted their open palms toward the arched white ceilings Deacon Paul Shelton reminded parishioners that Black spirituality is a “gift” to Catholicism and that their shared faith isn’t contained or defined by a building Moore helped hand out the pennies to parishioners as a way to remember St Ann and how they staved off closure before and their more recent drive to remain open Moore planned to take the rest of his pennies with him He said he would give some to his children and grandchildren and keep the rest near a chair he often sits in at home are unlikely to change his mind about leaving the only faith he’s ever known “I just hope that he takes a moment,” Dana Moore said “lets it settle and realizes if there’s going to be change in the Catholic Church Jasmine Vaughn-Hall jasmine.vaughn@thebaltimorebanner.com Jasmine Vaughn-Hall is a neighborhood and community reporter at the Baltimore Banner Have a tip about something happening in your community Welcome to The Banner's subscriber-only commenting community.
