Vote for Transient Theater to visit your town

Transient Theater is an exciting new performance collective with some big ideas for the future of the art. Building new plays from the ground up and taking them on a shoestring tour across the country, the group is hoping to build a network of cities that share new works. They dream of migrant performers and creators traveling from New York and Boise to San Francisco and St Louis, communicating new ideas  and building interstate communities. And they aren’t in it for the money – the company’s mission statement strictly limits how any profit is disbursed. The goal is to build empathy and community.  Sorry for the late notice, but today’s your last chance to make sure they visit your neighborhood with this year’s tour.

Feel free to snack on Magic Mike and Ike!

Facebook alerted me of a mosaic artist named Jason Mercier, and how he made a yummy looking image of Channing Tatum as Magic Mike out of 5,000 delicious Mike and Ike candies.

Beautiful Photo Series of LGBT Couples in Vietnam

Do yourself a favor and check out this exceptional photo series over at the NYTimes.

The photographer, Maika Elan, had been considering this project for some time but didn’t know if she was passionate enough to see it through. From Kerri MacDonald’s introduction:

But her feelings changed when she saw an exhibition [in Hanoi] about Vietnam’s L.G.B.T. community. None of the pictures she saw revealed the faces of their subjects. Many were shot from the back, and some wore masks. They were stereotypical — even harsh — depictions of love.

They didn’t look like real people.
