...elaborate? It's cut a destructive path through everything that we see. But people lack the courage to call it what it is. You look at Lil Wayne standing up dancing on the BET Awards - with his daughter on the stage - singing "I wanna f___ every girl in the world." You look at it and tell me what you think about...

King Khan enjoys being practically naked on stage, save boxers and tribal necklaces, and Sultan often sports a turban. In the ’90s, they wreaked havoc as members of The Spaceshits, until the band was blacklisted by most venues in Montreal. They aren’t exactly upright people. So “Invisible Girl” isn’t the kind of album that is going to make you a better person through its “art.” However, by combining the simple rock ’n’ roll sounds from...

...more rigidly defined progression of action and character development that define the plots of most plays and musicals, DeMita’s direction opts instead to expose the inner workings of one individual. The play is basically psychoanalytical; the busy, flowing, often frenetic musical numbers and dynamic stage direction affords the audience a rare glimpse into Poe’s psyche.
