It is only natural, considering the paucity of artistic talent in yours truly, that I am equally parsimonious in praising the artistic talents of others. As was observed by Tyne Daly, in a delightfully pugnacious quote that was used by my good friend Alexis (before she went Celtic on me), "A critic is someone who never actually goes to the battle, yet afterwards comes out shooting the wounded".
But the years, and the humiliating experience of acting for Kultura's adaptation of William Shakespeare's The Comedy of Errors, where my obvious lack of talent was all the more brought to light by the stellar cast which bravely tried to make up for my deficiencies, have mellowed this crusty young curmudgeon.
Thus, it is with great pride, and more than a little affection, that I would like to extend the following invitation on behalf of the many truly remarkable artists who have made our lovely little community so much happier through their inspired performances. From our friends at Kultura:

Thanks for posting! :) By the way, I made more detailed writeups on the events, you might want to check them out on the Kultura blog (or you've probably received my email announcement by now :)).
No prob, Marie. I hope this helps KYAS' Google Rankings. ;)
I love that quote of Tyne Daly. Hey...I think Tyne Daly is Irish. Daly is a very Irish name. And I read that her sister's name's Peg, another very Irish name.
I love that Tyne Daly quote too. So she's Irish? That makes a weird sort of sense. ;-)
Irish-American, but looks like her "Irish-ness" comes out a lot. haha.
