Milwaukee Chamber Theatre’s WELL (Theater)
Location: Broadway Theatre Center, 158 N. Broadway
Directed by Laura Gordon. Featuring Marti Gobel, Angela Iannone, Bo Johnson, Travis A. Knight and Ruth Schudson. Lisa, a hip and highly-respected performance artist, normally appears solo. But for her latest project, she’s daring to go out on a limb. She’s rented the Cabot Theatre and hired a diverse ensemble of actors for a “multi-character theatrical exploration.” Throwing the whole event into chaos is her all-too-present and perpetually-ailing mother. This riotously funny play offers many insights into what it means to be healthy, both as an individual and as a community.
Location: Milwaukee Art Museum
Since their meeting at St. Martins School of Art, London, in 1967, Gilbert and George have presented themselves as a single artist, united by the unwavering maxim, “Always be smartly dressed, well groomed relaxed friendly polite and in complete control.” Self-proclaimed living sculptures, the two use their own bodies to boldly present subject matter addressing universal themes such as birth, death, and bodily functions. The art of Gilbert & George encompasses an astonishing range of emotions and themes, from rural idylls to gritty images of a decaying London; from fantastical brightly colored panoramas to raw examinations of humanity stripped bare; from sex advertisements to religious fundamentalism. Since they began creating art together, the artists have always wanted to communicate beyond the narrow confines of the art world, adopting the slogan “Art for All.”
