RODNEY & John
and the meaning of life
march 13, 14 & 15, 2020
Through original acoustic music and words, longtime collaborators Rodney Eastman and John Hawkes (Academy Award-nominated actor) search for the meaning and purpose of life in an entertaining evening filled with humor and heart as they seek new answers to age-old questions.
Running time: 90 minutes plus intermission. |
"There was also a mesmerizing performance by a duo called Rodney and John, and you know that feeling when you think you’re going to watch someone perform, I don’t know, dumb old blues, or a copycat of a Pavement song, and instead you’re confronted with something original and poignant and deep? It’s just the best feeling, to be reeled in like that, reeled and gutted and sunk on a hook of hooks. Later, I was told that one of the members of this duo was an Oscar-nominated actor, and this may well have explained the phenomenon, because their presence in that room had a radiance to it that would be harder to explain if it wasn’t coming from people who already traded successfully in the art of mesmerization. It was enchanting. I was enchanted. "
