Pee-Wee's Big Comeback: 18 Years After a Fall, Paul Reubens Returnsnew
Pee-wee Herman is a fey and infantile parody of an awkward child circa 1961, even though the movie Pee-wee’s Big Adventure is set in the 1980s. When called names by the neighborhood bully, he chirps back, “I know you are, but what am I?”

Tap Dancing Around the Antimodernity Movementnew
Why live your life like it’s the past? Because the present kind of sucks. Yes, it might seem odd for this faction of the antimodernity movement to obsess over the 1920s — after all, that era is arguably when modernity was born. It’s an era that seems both more decadent and more innocent than ours.

Lauren Weedman's not a big star; she may be someday, or she may not, but when she's onstage I'd advise that you duck -- painful truths go whizzing by like bullets, send-ups rain down like bombs, and uncensored id explodes like shrapnel out of some internal minefield.
