  • The Black Label Berzerkus!
    JUNE 16 TH , 2010 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE LADIES AND GENTLEMAN AND CHILDREN OF ALL AGES – WELCOME TO THE BLACK LABEL BERZERKUS ! BLACK LABEL SOCIETY TO HEADLINE NEW HARD ROCK FESTIVAL CREATED BY FRONTMAN ZAKK WYLDE NORTH AMERICAN TOUR KICKS OFF SEPTEMBER 21 ST WITH SPECIAL GUESTS CLUTCH, CHILDREN OF BODOM AND 2CENTS (New York, NY) – Legendary rocker Zakk Wylde is proud to announce the creation of The Black Label Berzerkus , a rock n’ roll night of excess and unique madness! Headlined by Wylde’s infamous Black Label Society, the extensive two-month long North American trek will also feature Clutch, Children Of Bodom and 2Cents. Hand-picked by Wylde himself, Children Of Bodom and Clutch will share the main support slot. Kicking off on September 21 st at Roseland in Portland, OR, the tour will make stops across the U.S. and Canada, and will pack a powerful punch of music and debauchery. Please see below for the full tour routing, as well as additional Black Label Society tour dates including Ozzfest. Zakk Wylde, known worldwide for his guitar prowess and over-the-top stage presence, was looking at other rock festivals and saw the need for a value-priced tour of his own – particularly one that caters to the need of his unique demographic of fans, known as Berzerkers. It was an easy decision, says Wylde, summing it up like only he can, “If you don’t get invited to the party, start your f’ing own!” Children Of Bodom commented, “COB is more than ready to head out on Berzerkus and see all of our great fans.

  • Comedian Cristela Alonzo
    Comedian Cristela Alonzo Writer. Actor. Trailblazer. How Cristela Alonzo makes room for stories like hers in every medium. _____________________________________________________________________________________ Alicia Menendez: Hey there, welcome to Latina to Latina, a Bustle podcast. I’m Alicia Menendez, your host ​ and contributing editor at Bustle. Clip (Cristela Alonzo): I like that there's a story for little girls that teaches them that they can win if they're good and they don't give up. I think that's actually a big recurring theme in my life, is that if I work hard and I don't give up, maybe I'll win like my character did. Menendez: This episode, I’ll be talking to Cristela Alonzo. When we met four years ago, she was on her way to making TV history as the first Latina to create, produce and star in a network sitcom. She’s amazing, but all that career stuff is nothing compared to the actual, in-person magic that is Cristela Alonzo: all the talent, none of the ego. You've lived one of the things on my bucket list, which is voicing, in mine is a Disney character. You voiced a Pixar character. Cristela Alonzo: I'm a toy. I’m a Latina toy. Menendez: What came with that was friends from high school reaching out and asking you if you would call their kid, to be like, "Hey, it's Cruz Ramirez." Alonzo: It's funny, because I get people who say, "Do the voice. Do the voice for my kid." It's my voice, so I just talk.

  • The Performance Culture of Burning Man
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: THE PERFORMANCE CULTURE OF BURNING MAN Wendy Ann Clupper, PhD, 2007 Directed By: Dr. Franklin J. Hildy, Department of Theatre and Performance Studies Theatre in the United States for the last twenty years has been evolving in scope by way of a cultural phenomenon known as Burning Man. In 2006, this festival attracted over forty thousand participants to the Black Rock Desert in Northwestern Nevada to a flat dusty Playa surrounded by mountain ranges. While the natural environment there is hostile, the creative atmosphere is welcoming and invites a broad scope of performative behaviors and genres to be exhibited there, the entire week the festival takes place. Make-shift stages and theme camps, as well as large- scale interactive art pieces play host to participants who dress up in fanciful costumes to perform in all manner of imagining. This dissertation maps out the cultural terrain of Burning Man in order to explain how performing there is form of identity-making and cultural commodity. As one of a handful of North American festivals which expressly discourage commercialism and commodification, theatricality takes the place of significance for entertainment and communication. Performance forms of all kinds historically are represented at Burning Man and this dissertation will investigate and theorize how a new performance culture has emerged from the festival itself and by its presence as a theatrical event, has exposed and expanded performance and theatre forms. This dissertation offers a critical framework through which to consider performance and performers within the Burning Man community as applied to Mikhail Bakhtin’s concept of Carnival and the Schema for Theatrical Eventness proposed by the International Federation for Theatre Research Theatrical Events Working Group.
