The Last Hurrah of the Clementines

Fringe faves the Missoula Oblangata return to the Twin Cities for a third run at Bedlam. This experimental, DIY-fashioned show promises to offer up all kinds of distinctive wrinkles. It concerns Mr. and Mrs. Clementine, who live in their own laboratory and indulge in murky science and higher math. With a knock at the door, they have to test their motto: "We will harbor any fugitive, and ask questions later." The band Pebblelight provides the music, and eventually the question has to be answered: Is the fortune-cookie delivery woman what she seems? This show is touring nationally to destinations including Philadelphia and Baltimore, and this local staging is enjoying an extended two-week run. Come early to Friday's show for a BBQ from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.
