Cressman Center for the Arts, 100 E. Main St., will host a public reception and Curator’s gallery talk for the new exhibit “Seeking Bob Thompson: Dialogue/Object.” An art student at the University of Louisville in the 50′s, Bob Thompson produced more than 1,000 works, many of them monumental in scale and ambition. Although Thompson has been the subject of many exhibitions across the country, including a major retrospective at the Whitney Museum in 1998, he is still not well known in his hometown of Louisville. Seeking Bob Thompson will reintroduce the city of Louisville to one of its brightest talents through an exhibition of his works.- Frazier History Museum, 829 W. Main St., will host “An Evening with Poe.” For more than a century, readers have been terrified, surprised, and delighted by one of America’s greatest storytellers, Edgar Allan Poe. Whether about grisly murder or ethereal and untouchable love, Poe delivers a new thrill to his audience with each tale. Through the Frazier Museum’s Historic Interpretations Department, we bring some of Poe’s best known works to the stage for a live show like you’ve never seen before. For the third year, we’re bringing it back. This year, eight Poe tales will be presented.
- Presentation Academy will present “Bye Bye Birdie” on November 2 at 7:30 p.m. Price for adults is $12 and students are $8. Performances will take place at Presentation’s Arts & Athletic Center at 900 South Fourth Street.
- Louisville Ballet, 315 E. Main Street, will host a production titled, “Studio Connections.” Rarely do you get the chance to see the extraordinary range of choreography performed by the full company of the Louisville Ballet in this intimate setting. Focusing on the versatility of dance and choreography, Studio Connections presents selections from classical and contemporary ensemble, solo and pas de deux works.
Dreamland Film Center, 810 E. Market St., will present “Hell-Bent For Election,” an animation with an election theme. Politics and Animation make strange bedfellows. The adult consequence of an election portrayed by the whimsical constitution of children’s entertainment. In an arena in which satire and propaganda flip flop like candidates in a debate, the animated political cartoon is a unique and holy American contradiction. This program of short films, complied by Ryan Daly, includes the Chuck Jones directed Hell Bent for an Election (1944), Popeye for President (1956), American Time Capsule (1968) A Political Cartoon (1974), Jimmy the C (1977) amongst other ephemeral delights. The event is 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Suggested Donation: $5.
