Let's Get Lost

Arts on Real replaces its scheduled production of 'Adult Entertainment' with the Lost Film Fest

This week at Arts on Real, audiences were supposed to be enjoying some Adult Entertainment – as in the Elaine May stage comedy of that name, which opened in late February and was slated to run through April 2. But the unexpected departure of two actors from the Naughty Austin production left the show's director/Arts on Real manager Blake Yelavich with too large a hole in the cast to warrant continuing the run. So now he's plugging in some adult entertainment, lower-case: On Thursday, March 24, that would be the Lost Film Fest, an anti-authoritarian, anti-corporate multimedia spectacle out of West Philadelphia in which fest director Scott Beibin spins from live storytelling to video of protests and pranks to provide hilarious accounts of an ongoing guerilla war against government and corporate goons. Screen Door Films and Arts on Real co-host the appearance. For more information, visit www.lostfilmfest.org. On Friday, March 25, Clear the Queue, a new Web-based comedy series developed by Austinite Tim McCormack, has a live airing of its first episode. For more information, visit www.clearthequeue.com. Then Saturday, March 26, local improv troupe Girls, Girls, Girls! creates more musicals out of thin air (with the help of your suggestions, natch) in two shows, first at 8pm, then at 11pm. For more information, visit girlsgirlsgirls.austinimprov.com.
