And by that I<br />mean the same darkness as the blank space in your mind, before a<br />thought forms. Does that make sense? Do you know what I'm talking<br />about?
<p><strong>I didn’t get all that when I was little, all that stuff about angels and god in heaven. I thought it was all puffy clouds and angel babies playing harps. I didn’t get the other part, the secret part, like some kinda sign. The language of angels, and how light burns.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Aren’t we better than our worst crimes? Are we just going to go on trading blood endlessly back and forth? What is the sense of that? Aren’t we tired? </strong></p>
<div><strong>Now let’s push ourselves today</strong></div>
<div><strong>Push further than you think you can</strong></div>
<p><strong>And keep on pushing</strong></p>

<p>Experience The Moors—an ingenious dark comedy that subverts the tropes of the 19th-century Gothic romance. Contemporary Queer playwright Jen Silverman has brilliantly crafted eight characters (six women, a dog, and a moor hen) who each contend with desire, fear, and transformation. In their struggle to change, we recognize their love and their desperate need to be seen.</p>
<p>A THICK DESCRIPTION OF HARRY SMITH, a proto-psychedelic medicine show, takes a wild ride through the life, work, and times of filmmaker, musicologist, painter, anthropologist, collector, occultist, and fabulist, Harry Everett Smith. Best known for editing the seminal Anthology of American Folk Music, Smith's peculiar life is an emblem of American bohemian life in the 20th Century.</p>
<p>In VANITY FAIR, Becky, orphaned and disadvantaged, is cunning and ambitious, while Amelia, born into privilege, is well-intentioned but naive. As they each strive to secure love, success, and stability in the patriarchy of early 19th-century London they face many obstacles to their dreams.</p>
