<\/a> A really just MUST see: The Weekenders CD Release accompanied by a set of Modern Dance with opening guest Quiet Oak<\/strong> at The State Room<\/strong> in Salt Lake City. The \u201cset of Modern Dance\u201d is choreographed by none other than Erica Womack<\/strong>, whom we profiled this month’s edition of 15 Bytes<\/a>, and will be performed by her five \u201ckick-ass dancers.\u201d<\/strong> Doors open at 8, show\u2019s at 9. There\u2019s a bar, so you have to be legal. www.thestateroom.com<\/a> for tickets.<\/p>\n<\/a>Remington and Weasel<\/strong>, 7:30 p.m., Rose Wagner Performing Arts Center, Salt Lake City: Set in the rigid confines of academia, the story follows a film prof and her colleague through \u201cthe painful, and sometimes hilarious, journey\u201d of what happens when a person goes too far in the direction of freedom or its consequences. Pygmalion Theatre Company\u2019s<\/strong> play was reviewed April 26th by Dale Thompson<\/a>. Tickets: 801-355-2787.<\/p>\n<\/a>Sun Tunnels Community Meet-up<\/strong>: Utah Museum of Fine Arts<\/strong> staff will be on hand at Nancy Holt\u2019s earthwork in Utah\u2019s west desert from 1-4 p.m. for a free art and science adventure. Soak up the scenery while listening to New York-based cellist Tessa Seymour<\/strong>; construct a simple constellation viewer; create a sun print using natural materials at the site and the energy of the sun; write or sketch with UMFA educators to explore your relationship with art and the environment. It\u2019s a remote area with no services available. Directions and tips available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/a>Stop in at Phillips Gallery,<\/strong> 444 E. 200 South, 11 a.m. \u2013 4 p.m., and see a wall of Pat Eddington\u2019s<\/strong> cat art upstairs, in remembrance of this artist we so recently lost<\/a> (and don\u2019t miss Connie Borup\u2019s<\/strong> work<\/a> in the Main Gallery, of course); then stroll on down to Modern West Fine Art<\/strong>, 177 W. 200 South, 11 a.m. \u2013 6 p.m., where Tom Judd<\/strong>, whom we profiled this month<\/a>, is showing his stuff. It\u2019s all good.<\/p>\n<\/a>Stupid Fu**ing Bird: <\/strong>A postmodern adaptation of Chekov\u2019s \u201cSeagull,\u201d Aaron Posner\u2019s play \u201cbecomes a perfect storm that is in equal parts painful and funny,\u201d Dale Thompson relates in her review of the play<\/a> at Salt Lake Acting Company<\/strong>, 7:30 p.m. The play is accompanied by a show of \u201cbird\u201d art by Utah artists. Tickets can be purchased at the box office or<\/em>\u00a0<\/em>online<\/em><\/a>. Friday\u2019s performance is sold out.<\/em><\/p>\n
