"Fearless, avant-garde and determined to make us active participants in the creative process, ARTEL’ shows are as disorienting and exhilarating as a trip to another of my favorite LA wonders, The Museum of Jurassic Technology, where every room defies expectations and logic, stripping us of everything familiar." Taco

4 MORE SHOWS, 4 more chances to experience the American Russian Theatre Ensemble Lab. performing their revamped take on the adventures of Russian literary martyr, Mikail Bulgakov, in the days of Stalin. I saw the version they performed last November at Highways and was as usual blown away by their originality and fearlessness. I'm going back for more this weekend and can attest that there's nothing like ARTEL in LA. Read last November's Taco review to find out why and treat yourself to a mind-opening experience.
