Bean and the Babysitter directed by Jason Michael Roberts examines what occurs as opposing ways of life are forced to come together in grave situations. The film begins with babysitter Pat arriving at the farm to take care of Bean. As the parents quickly take off, the isolating and quiet nature of the farmhouse becomes evident to Pat, who is accustomed to city-life as a student. Bean, a young boy obsessed with everything western, longs to have a partner to play sheriff with but Pat denies his wishes given that she is too busy studying anatomy for her upcoming final. As night passes, Pat awakes to the realization that Bean’s parents have not yet returned - and will not return. This revelation procures different results from Bean and Pat, as they must now figure out how to survive on their own.

"Correct! I actually performed on The Totally Tubular Festival two years ago. I was playing solo that night and they asked me to come back, so I thought I'd do something a bit different and so I decided to reform my backing band from 1988, The Lost Toy People. The last show we played together was with Depeche Mode and OMD at the Rose Bowl for the legendary 101 Concert and the other night in Phoenix was our first show in 38 years; how about that?"
Even those who don't know very much about visual art are familiar with the Cubist approach to the human body. Pablo Picasso liked to present a person from many angles at once, and compress three-dimensional form into a two-dimensional frame. No matter what step she's on, that nude descending a staircase comes at us all at once. We know we're looking at an individual person, even if it's never clear which of those fields of color represent the present moment and which are afterimages, projections, and vapor trails. Representing human beings like this guarantees that there’ll be distortions: facial features in strange places, unexpected angles, duplicates and odd subtractions, clashes between heads, necks, and torsos, the shuffling of expressions, and the surprise and disquiet that comes when an obviously human figure doesn't look much like a human at all.
Here is a look at shows taking place this week along with our featured listings and a look at some upcoming shows. New Jersey Stage offers previews of concerts throughout the Garden State as well as select shows in New York City and Philadelphia areas
