“Ray Bradbury’s Wisdom 2116″ at the Fremont Center Theater
In bardic lore the hazelnut symbolized the quintessence of wisdom – a perdurable packet of superior nourishment, sweet and richly flavored, which requires perseverance to enjoy but is much worth the effort. In several Celtic teaching tales immortal salmon swim in sacred pools, above which lean the boughs of hazel trees; the salmon, who symbolize the bards and druids, grow wise and ancient on the hazelnuts of wisdom that fall into the waters.
Ray Bradbury, America’s senior bard of imaginative fiction, has brought forth such a hazelnut from his deep pools and director/choreographer Steve Josephson has presented it perfectly. “Ray Bradbury’s Wisdom 2116″ is a sweet nutmeat of a performance piece, a chamber musical with a formidable pedigree and an unconquerable zest. Originally written half a century ago at the personal request of Charles Laughton and his wife Elsa Lanchester,...

There are many theories, ideas or should I say 'schools of thought' on how the world would end. At the height of the Cold War, nuclear annihilation ranks at the very top. While others argue it will not be man who will destroy the world (directly) but - an epidemic of global proportions (most probably from a potent strain of virus - think: I am Legend) or severe climactic change (another ice age perhaps? That would be Day After Tommorow right?) or mechanical uprising (The Terminator, anyone?) or even attack from the outside - conquering aliens (Mars Attacks!) or perhaps an asteroid. And let's not forget zombies!
