Ug Doesnt Mean What You Think Go See It
Ug: The Caveman Musical plays Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights at 8 at the Attic Theatre and Film Center, 5924 W. Washington Blvd., just east of Fairfax. Reservations: 323.525.0600, ext. 2.
Many concepts are associated with the term Caveman. Shining black monoliths. Cave paintings. Car insurance. But rarely, if ever, does one associate cavemen with musical theatre. And yet, that's exactly what Ug: The Caveman Musical, written by Jim Geoghan and now playing at the Attic Theatre on Washington Boulevard, is premised around.
This musical comedy follows Ug, a caveman of moderate intelligence, and his small tribe of misfits as they discover the wonders of theatre for the first time. The plot comes complete with all the theatrical stereotypes we've come to know (and love?).
All the Rage Is Gunning to Stress a Moral Point
The stage is bare, except for some chairs. A sense of expectation is in the air. The lights dim, and an eerie quiet fills the room. And then, bang! The show takes off like a shot. Both proverbial and literal. It's "All the Rage," written by Keith Reddin, playing at the Attic Theatre, just east of Culver City, 5429 West Washington Blvd. for three more weekends.
