*Orson's Shadow*
Bobo's seeing Austin Pendleton's play at Artists Rep in Portland on Friday night. (It has a theater critic in it! Speculation about what may have happened in 1960 when Kenneth Tynan invited Mr. Welles to direct Mr. Olivier and his new flame Joan Plowright in a production at the Royal Court of Ionescu's *Rhinoceros.* Oh, and a certain Miss Leigh is on long distance, and she sounds rather upset ...)
But sheesh, big-city theater prices: $42.50 plus five bucks tacked on just for the hell of it. That's an often-overlooked advantage to being a Ho in an area like this one.
(Bobo plans on spending most of the Assoc. of Alternative Newsweeklies annual convention in a drunken stupor.)

Bobo saw three of the five off-season shows he recently saw at OSF in Ashland for something like $27.
Check out www.artistsrep.org
Their next season opens in Sept. with Ayckbourn's House and Garden in two separate spaces.
Two plays (to be done also in Spokane next season) will appear at Artists Rep in Portland after the first of the year:
Sarah Ruhl's The Clean House (in Jan.)
and
Rabbit Hole (in Feb.)
April '08 will bring both Streetcar Named Desire and The History Boys.
