Admission:
$10-$15
Details:
A group of co-workers from a greeting card company meet for a team building
exercise at their boss's home. The exercise? A game of Tag... with skillets.
It's a tale of sex, lies, murder, chainsaws, anal beads, and of course....
skillets. From the Artistic Director, Andy Batt : If Clowntime Is Over
represents MadLab's mind, then Skillet Tag is its gut. It's a show that's just
freaking hilarious, irreverent, fast-paced, violent, and did I say funny? It's
a great send-up of the classic parlor plays where characters keep coming in and
out of the same room from a dozen different doors/directions. This one is just
a bit more on the edge than most.

Winner of the Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival, Taxi reveals Jafar
Panahi as one of the most vital filmmakers of our time. His films have always
drawn the attention of the Iranian authorities, culminating in his 2010 arrest
and a 20-year ban from making movies. Despite these challenges, Panahi has
ingeniously found ways to continue producing films without breaking the ban,
and his third post-arrest work, Taxi, is no exception. Taxi follows Panahi as
he drives a yellow cab that through the streets of Tehran, picking up a diverse
group of passengers who candidly express their opinions and worldviews to a
camera placed on the dashboard of his mobile film studio. Despite these humble
means Panahi cleverly captures the spirit of Iranian society through this
comedic, dramatic, subversive, and most unusual road movie.
