As an addendum to the top 5 things to do in Telluride this week (let's call it 5+ things to do), I'd like to announce the latest production from the infamous group of misfits at Squidshow Theatre!
It's "BARRY": A SHOW FOR KIDS OF ALL AGES!
If you were a kid in the 70's (as I was), you may have been lucky enough to have heard the musical meaderings of Barry Louis Polisar. Songs like "My Brother Threw Up on my Toy Stuffed Bunny" , "My Brother Thinks He's a Banana", "Barnyard Stomp", "Homemade Band", and "I Lost My Pants", among hundreds of others. More Recently, his song "All I Want is You", was featured in the opening credits of the critically acclaimed movie Juno (which just happened to premier here at the Telluride Film Fesitval).
"BARRY" is a play centered around Polisar's music, and a group of very imaginative children. It stars several telented local actors, and yours truly and Ethan Hale are doing the music.
As always, the show is free, a hat will be passed.
