Will time make man more wise?

Now, fresh from the warped minds that brought you "The Reindeer Monologues," an hilariously disturbed look at the holiday season, comes something, well, a little more refined. Here's a hint: The life of the wife is ended by the knife. No, wait a minute, that's Stewie trying to work through his matricidal fantasies while passing off a guttersnipe as a lady in the Family Guy's Reindeer-like take on "My Fair Lady," which was adapted from Shaw's "Pygmalion." Which Neptune Sushi, a New Hampshire-based film and theater company, drags kicking and screaming, but thankfully not singing, into the 21st Century in "The Shapes of Things."  A modern drama set at a small California liberal arts college, the play follows the lives of four twenty-something students, focusing on the psychology and intimacy surrounding the nature of art and the limits of the human will. The production stars  Marc Pelletier, Audrey Claire Johnson, Greg White and Gina Kattar. Aaron Foss directs. It runs at 8 p.m. July 9 and 10, and at 3 p.m. July 10 and 11 at The Actors Studio, Mill 1, Suite 5, the Tannery, 50 Water St. Tickets are $12 general admission and $10 for students and seniors. There is a special $8 admission for students and seniors for the Sunday show only. For more information, log onto http://www.neptunesushi.com or email info@neptunesushi.com. And, in case you didn't catch the reference, the headline is a lyric from the old Yardbirds song "Shapes of Things." Got nothing to do with the show. Great song though. Like the Bowie cover on Pin Ups better. Been stuck in my head since getting the release. Anyhow ...
