Two Fingers in the Sugar Dish

This dance/performance-art piece certainly bills itself as an "I am Woman. Hear me roar!" act. In interpreting several feminine archetypes and feminist icons, the troupe takes aim at our het-male-dominated society with some of the following valid, if trite, critiques: Marriage is a sham. Joan of Arc was screwed over. Amazon chicks rock! I concur wholeheartedly. With all its whip cracking, however, Womenatrix did nothing to advance my feminist sensibilities. The dance became dull. The humor dreary. In this case, the lioness's roar turned out to be a yawn. Thu 7:00 p.m., Fri 5:30 p.m., Sat 10:00 p.m. Red Eye. (Swanson)
