James Franco Tackles Dance Theater on 27th Street This May
It has come to our attention that James Franco is going to be making his dance-theater directorial debut right here in New York next month. The producer of the show, John Morrow, tells us the multi-media piece—which Franco will be narrating live at every performance—is called "Collage," and features live dance, theater, music, and poetry. Since many of Franco's more off-beat projects can be confusing and mysterious until experienced first-hand, some others involved with the show have taken a few moments to further explain what you can expect. Below, they offer up these puzzle pieces:
Map of the Day: NYC(ollage)
There can never be too many New York City maps, and City Room points out collage artist Michael Albert's latest creation—a print of which costs 50 bucks online, though he generously handed them out for free this past weekend on a corner in downtown Brooklyn.
More Ch-ch-ch-changes at Coney Island
The Astroland rocket is in dire need of a home, Ruby's is closing its doors, everything is for rent...so it's not really surprising that Coney Island is being picked apart by vultures. The latest: Gowanus Lounge is reporting that the Coney Island History Project's Tricia Vita's memorial collage to Astroland was stolen. And NewYorkology reports that the city has approved plans to replace the original pier and boardwalk, which means the old wood is now for sale! "The material used for this project was a Brazilian hardwood called Ipe - a unique durable rain forest wood perfect for decking and outdoor use. It is now available for sale reworked or in its original condition with its natural ocean-weathered grey patina." (More info here for interested buyers.) Is Coney becoming the next Shea Stadium?
