Busy like a little bee

Saw Bluemouth Inc.'s Death by Water on Friday night with C. I don't even know where to begin with it, so I'll just boil it down to highlights and hope that you'll have the great good fortune to go see one of the few remaining performances.

highlights:

1) Following a cowboy who's pulling a rickshaw down a sidewalk of Fort Greene, accompanied by a ?Chinese? song as a soundtrack. (Cue lots of confused pedestrians.)

2) Sitting in a plexi-glass shed, wearing headphones, watching a projected video and two dancers/actors careen around an eerily lit corner of the park.

3) Listening to the dancers/actors who are miced and whose breathing, sniffling and intermittent dialogue is superimposed over the music playing over the headphones.

It was awesome. The only thing that could have possibly made it more awesome is if I hadn't been carrying the aforementioned devil spawn.

The rest of the weekend was also pretty great, including two first times - walking across the Brooklyn Bridge (beautiful!) and going to a bar by myself.
