Nov. 2.

To see the global economy in action, you could fly to Indonesia and see the 
sweatshops and the cleared rainforests, or you could just stand in the 
unemployment line and talk to your downsized neighbors. Either is 
depressing, and you might like standing up to the big corporations – but you 
still have to buy stuff.

The ever sublime Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre kicks off its 
mainstage season with an emotional production called "Company of Angels: The 
Story of Charlotte Salomon." A fictionalized autobiography, the play tells 
the story of a young German Jewish artist, Charlotte Salomon, who died in 
Auschwitz at age 26—but not before creating an abundant legacy of nearly 
1,300 paintings she called “Life? or Theatre?”
