SUMMARY:Skip the Small Talk Night
DESCRIPTION:Meaningful conversations with strangers\, using question prompts. Check-in begins at 6:45 p.m. The venue is 21 and over\, and a government-issued ID is required. Many guests are in their 20s and 30s\, and guests 21 and older are welcome. Beer\, cider\, hard seltzer\, wine\, and nonalcoholic drinks are for sale\, along with pizza and other food from Bardo’s. The venue is wheelchair accessible. \nThe prompts are meant to start longer conversations\, with enough structure that people actually talk. You can skip a question. Examples include “When are you the happiest?” and “If you were going to become close friends with me\, what would I need to know about you?” Arrive before 7:00 p.m. if you can. Tickets are first come\, first served\, and these nights often sell out. There is no entry at the door once tickets are gone.

SUMMARY:The Head is not the Star of the Body: On Tour!
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a send-off Celebration and Preview Run of The Head is not the Star of the Body by Cassie Wang\, Resident Dancemaker at BCA! \nBoston Center for the Arts (BCA) has been awarded a New England States Touring (NEST) Grant from New England Foundation for the Arts (NEFA) to support a tour of The Head is not the Star of the Body that extends direct support for a Boston-based artist to tour in New England. \nThe Head is not the Star of the Body is a study on longing\, a meditation on desire\, and a measure of distances between. Created by Cassie Wang at BCA\, the interdisciplinary performance is a choreographic and ethnographic response to music by American indie folk band Big Thief. Six performers traverse through states of holding\, witnessing\, singing\, chasing\, and coalescing in embodiments of varying relationally. The audience frames the performance on opposite sides\, positioned to witness both the dance and a reflection of themselves/the other. Generative video art and projection weave into a dance that is intimate\, nostalgic\, and tender through moments of affective viscerally. Throughout this multi-year process\, Wang and her collaborators ground themselves in the questions: How does longing reveal identity? How do we sit with someone else’s longing? How do we measure the distance between subjects of longing?

SUMMARY:The Battle of a Thousand Slain\, 1791: How a Grand Coalition of Native Peoples Defeated Most of the United States Army
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dan Breen \n235 years ago this month\, the new United States government sent a military expedition into the Ohio country to assert federal authority over the Shawnee and Miami Nations. What followed was a humiliating defeat for the young U.S. army. It is hardly ever taught in textbooks\, but in this presentation\, we will delve into the factors that sparked one of the 18th century’s greatest examples of determined native resistance.

SUMMARY:DeRay Davis
DESCRIPTION:Born and raised on the south side of Chicago\, comedian-turned-actor DeRay Davis can most recently be “scene” and heard in the blockbuster mega hit 21 Jump Street\, Jumping the Broom and his wildly successful Showtime 1 hour Comedy Special\, DeRay Davis: Power Play. He lends his voice and writing talent to countless characters on Kanye Wests Albums the BoonDocks and currently on Adult Swims Black Dynamite! \nDeRay\, developed and honed a hip\, sardonic\, streetwise mentality at an early age and parlayed it smoothly and efficiently into the comedy-club circuit. Davis achieved his career breakthrough at the Laffapalooza Festival in Atlanta\, GA\, then scored a triple whammy by winning the Comedy Central Laugh Riots Competition and landing covetable spots in the Montreal Just for Laughs Festival and the Cedric the Entertainer Festival. Throughout\, the comic wove vulgar and droll\, yet also telling and deeply personal\, routines around the subjects of race\, poverty\, and his challenging experiences growing up in the Windy City projects with a dysfunctional African-American family. \nThe transition from behind-the-mike spots to movie roles represented a relatively short jump\, for most of Davis’ early film assignments emphasized the same subject matter as his routines; for example\, he played the “Hustle Guy” in Barbershop (2002) and its sequel\, Barbershop 2: Back in Business (2004)\, rapper Mario “Fa Real” Greene in the Martin Short comedy Jiminy Glick in La La Wood (2004)\, and a Jamaican stoner in Johnson Family Vacation (2004). Davis expanded his genre focus with roles in Rupert Wainwright’s supernatural horror outing The Fog (2005)\, and Todd Phillips’ comedy remake School for Scoundrels (2006). Subsequent feature assignments include License to Wed (2007)\, Semi-Pro (2008\, as basketball player Bee Bee Ellis)\, and Imagine That (2009). Life As We Know it and Old Dogs. Davis also appeared on television series including Entourage and Reno 911!\, and televised comedy revues such as Comedy Central’s Premium Blend. Deray can be seen on VH1’s new show “Hip Hop Squares” the hip-hop adaptation of the classic “Hollywood Squares” game show\, which will be premiering on VH1 on March 13th.
