The Good Woman of Setzuan

When: Saturdays, Sundays, 2 p.m. and Fridays, 7:30 p.m. Continues through May 7 2017
Price: $10-$15
Three gods visit an impoverished city in search of goodness. Shen Te, a good-hearted prostitute, provides them with shelter and, as a reward, they give her money to buy a small shop. Quickly becoming a target for the greedy—including the police, her customers, and extended family— Shen Te is forced to disguise herself as a man for protection. This classic play by Bertolt Brecht feels both contemporary and poignant as it asks the question, what does it mean to be good in an unjust world?

  • Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
