SEX, DRUGS & OPERA

By Angela Ashman | Wed, April 10, 2013

Experimental opera singer Joseph Keckler, who blends theater, music, and visual art in his work, has become a downtown must-see for his brilliant and often humorous songs (he has one all about cat names) performed in his powerful voice with a... More »
I am an Opera: Smooth Operatic

By James Hannaham | Wed, April 10, 2013

“I’m not really an opera,” says dynamic performer Joseph Keckler at the start of his tantalizing song cycle–cum–multimedia one-man show I am an Opera. “I just said that to intrigue you.” Joseph, you tease! If not nearly as overblown as an opera,... More »

2009 | Best Gay Theater Fest

It's fitting that The HOT! Festival turned 18 in 2009. Just when Dixon Place moved into a fabulous, state-of-the-art space from the fleabag furnished Bowery room it used to inhabit, HOT! grew up, too. Six weeks of LGBT programming always offer a diverse lineup of new and exciting works, but this year's festival really took the cake, showing some of the most professional and well-composed pieces by an array of theater luminaries.

2008 | Best Move from Living Room to Legitimate Theater

Downtown's most supportive works-in-progress space has inhabited something like a living room for the past 22 years, with mismatched couches, dubious air conditioning, and lots of heart. The new space, funded in part by the coins and bills dropped into a hard hat at every DP show over the last few years, features a main-stage theater that can seat up to 130, a lounge, and a separate rehear...
