Donnie Darko American Repertory Theatre Based on the screenplay by Richard Kelly Adapted and directed by Marcus Stern Through November 18 Zero Arrow Theatre, Cambridge Ticket and performance information In bringing "Donnie Darko" to Cambridge's Zero Arrow stage, the American Repertory Theatre has made bold move: it decided to issue a challenge to two diverse target audiences, either of which could easily feel skittish about the mere idea of A.R.T.'s latest production. The challenge? To...

Like just about anyone who thought their love of music was aptly captured onscreen by John Cusack in "High Fidelity," the folks over at Paste Magazine are fond of The Music List. So we weren't terribly surprised to see (via Stereogum) that the mag created a list of the nation's best music venues, broken down into regions. The criteria, as Paste spells it out in their June issue (Parkey Posey on the cover!): We weighed...

This Sunday Project Bread's Walk for Hunger takes over the streets of Boston, Newton, Watertown…oh, you get the picture. The walk starts in the morning and thousands of people will be walking to raise money to support food banks, soup kitchens, and other initiatives across the Commonwealth. There are lots of good shows going on this week – and it's capped off with a weekend extravaganza that includes both Arts First and Harvard Square's...

Many a Broadway work has previewed in Boston before heading to the Great White Way -- and we strongly suggest that the musical announced this week follow suit. A Flaming Lips concert is in many respects a musical theatre event in and of itself. But there is buzz that the band will officially launch a Broadway venture with the help of a collaboration so bizarre that it just might be awesome: Aaron Sorkin. The fast-talking...

Anushka Pop, are earning some well deserved buzz from their 2nd EP, Akathena. Give a minute, well, 2 minutes to be precise, and listen to the title track; you'll understand why. The boys (John Soares - lead vocal/guitar/ organ, Chris Welch - drums/vocals, and Johnny Arguedas- bass/vocals) were nice enough to sit down with Bostonist, and after one round of whiskey, spill all their trade secrets.

Mama Bear Jen Chung made the top five. In fact, she’s number three. Bostonist recently stumbled upon our very own Katie listed on David Krug’s site as a “2006 Sleeper” for the top ten most powerful women in the blogosphere. In the spirit of High Fidelity, we really can’t get enough of these lists. The liberalcowboy (David Krug) put together one of the many lists on his site and titled it “10 Most Powerful Women in Blogging.” Being vain, as we bloggers are sometimes known to be, the posting was hit and made it half-way around the ‘net. Katie reports that when she got caught googling herself last week, the Krug list was a top hit. We’re happy to know that she’ll potentially be knocking back some shots with the Pats in the post-season. Stays tuned for the next Bostonist Happy Hour, when she promises to drunk-dial some sushi afterward and do a “wicked sweet” post on it. We don't quite know what to make of Katie's being a sleeper pick for '06, especially since number eight on the list of 10 is Joi Ito, a guy.
