For as long as I can remember I've had a recurring dream where I'm being pursued by someone or something only to find that I can't move my legs. I end up stuck in one place, awaiting my fate as whatever it is that's on my tail makes its way towards me before I'm rescued by my alarm clock. With Don't Move, directors Adam Schindler and Brian Netto, and writers TJ Cimfel and David White, have created a thriller that's literally the stuff of my nightmares. Like the dream I can't shake, it features a prone protagonist, but there's nothing ambiguous or metaphorical about the antagonist, who is simply another predatory man with a God complex.
When I was growing up, there was always music playing. The first thing my mom did was turn on the radio in our kitchen before even making coffee and breakfast. My mom was the type person who would call into local radio station DJ's and she'd win trips to NYC Dinner Shows and even to Las Vegas. She won a lot by staying tuned in.

"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
