  • June, 2017 CAST & CREW
    Issue No. 156 Single Copy $3.50 June, 2017 CAST & CREW “The Source For Theater Happenings” PortFringe Festival 2017 by Muriel Kenderdine You’re invited to check out Maine’s own Fringe Festival, PortFringe, Mad Horse Theatre Company at Geno’s Rock Club June 17 at 4:30, June 22 at 11:30 pm eight days and 125 performances at various venues from June 17 through 24. This is the sixth annual celebration of performing arts in Portland since it was founded in 2012 and continues to be run entirely by volunteers. Last year’s PortFringe generated $30,000 in ticket sales, all funneled directly back to the artists. For new subscribers and anyone who needs a quick reminder on what is Fringe, it started in Edinburgh, Scotland, when theater people decided to have an alternative festival playing concurrently with the Edinburgh International Festival. The next year a local newspaperman gave it a name: “Round the fringe of official Festival drama, there seems to be more private enterprise than before…” From there it has spread around the world, and now the USA hosts more Fringe Festivals than any other country. And Portland’s has been a successful one, growing and expanding each year. Founding PortFringe committee member Mariah Bergeron says, “The festival showcases an enormous number of local and national performances, hidden in rock clubs, tiny stages, and historic buildings. Plus, all the proceeds go back to the artists, which is relatively unheard HOW DARE YOU SIR: A GENTLEMEN’S PANEL ON ROCK: Mad Horse of.

  • Ariadne and Dionysus
    Ariadne and Dionysus. Foreword. The Greek legends, as we know them from Homer, Hesiod, and other ancient sources, have their origins in the Bronze Age about the time of the thirteenth century B.C., which is when many scholars think something resembling the Trojan War may have taken place. The biblical Abraham may be of the same period. It was a time when the concept of Earth as the great Mother-Goddess, immanent in all things as all things were in Her, was being replaced throughout the region by the idea of an external Sky God, probably introduced by the marauding nom- adic tribes coming down from the north. At the same time, and for the same reasons, the principle of matriarchy was being replaced by patriarchy. The transformation was slow and spor- adic but eventually complete, at least on the surface. The legends, repeated by story-tellers for centuries before they were written down, probably with many deviations from the original, were meant to be pleasing to men. It has been my object to imagine the same events from the point of view of the women concerned. To this end I have added "fictional" material of my own. The more familiar version of the story of Ariadne and Dionysus is that she married him after being abandoned by Theseus. Dionysus was either man or god, as with many of the old myth- ical characters. I have imagined that she gave birth to him. Some may complain of the way I tell it, but after so long a time, who knows? In all the legends there are different known versions.
