Not to be confused with the musical “The Book of Mormon”;
Robert Dubac’s “The
Book Of Moron” will be making its appearance at the Times-Union Center’s
Terry Theater for two engagements this November. If you are yearning for some satire that cuts
with a clever intelligent edge; if you are tired of adolescent comedies
generated by the mediocrity of television; then buckle-up for a hilarious joy
ride over the pot-holed highways of cultural hypocrisy with Robert Dubac’s The
Book Of Moron!
Robert Dubac’s newest Off-Broadway solo hit, “The Book Of Moron”, has been
described as one of the most “Hilarious,” “Intelligent” and “Scorching”
satirical attacks on idiocracy since Mark Twain. (And “idiocracy” isn’t even a
word. How dumb is that?)
The New York Times raves, “Riding shotgun
with intelligence and absurdity, “The Book Of Moron” crashes head first into
the barriers of sex, race, religion, politics and the media. It may be
offensive to some but there’s laughter for all!”
Having been brainwashed by a culture that worships Kardashians over character,
delusion over truth and selfies over self-effacement; Dubac begins his journey
with one simple question. Who am I? What do I believe? What’s the point? Okay, that’s three questions but suffice to
say, he has no answers. Just voices. Inner voices who come to life with precision
and wit. One by one they pull him into a
hysterical alternative universe of critical thought in search of the bigger
picture. It’s a head trip on a banana
peel.
In “The Book Of Moron” Dubac portrays, ROBERT, an everyman who has lost sight
of the bigger picture. He’s been
bombarded by so much hype and spin he can’t remember who he is or what he
believes. Does he have a purpose? Can he think for himself? Is the truth in the details or in the pudding?
He hasn’t a clue. He racks his brain searching for answers but
finds nothing but voices.
Robert Dubac belongs to a unique breed of humorists, bringing to mind the best
of Lily Tomlin and Mark Twain. He
creates characters that boggle our minds with biting wit and rapid-fire satire
while simultaneously crafting a simple story that binds us all together. His ability to combine the raucous laughter of
stand-up comedy with the startling thrill of live theater continues to fill
seats everywhere; as nothing like this can be seen on TV, that’s for sure.

"Nobuntu," the female acappella quintet from Zimbabwe, will
be preforming in JAX for only night only. The group has drawn international acclaim for
its inventive performances that range from traditional Zimbabwean songs to Afro
Jazz to Gospel. The ensemble’s concerts
are performed with pure voices, augmented by minimalistic percussion, traditional
instruments such as the Mbira (thumb piano) and organic, authentic dance
movements. Take a listen HERE and get your tickets today.
Nobuntu was nominated for Best Musician of the Year at the Zimbabwe
International Women Awards in London in 2015 and in the last few seasons, the
quintet has performed at festivals and concert halls in Italy, Austria,
Germany, Belgium, the Czech Republic and throughout the African continent. The ensemble was a huge critical success at
“Trans-Vocal” in Frankfurt and “Voice Mania” in Vienna. Their first tour to Canada, in 2016, included
performances in Toronto, Winnipeg, Vancouver, and Victoria.
The word Nobuntu is an African concept that values humbleness, love, unity and
family from a woman’s perspective. The
ensemble represents a new generation of young African women singers who
celebrate and preserve their culture, beauty, and heritage through art. Their mission is the belief that music can be
an important vehicle for change, one that transcends racial, tribal, religious,
gender, and economic boundaries.

The newest exhibition at the Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens, Todd McGrain: The Lost Bird Project,
opens in the J. Wayne and Delores Barr Weaver Community Sculpture Garden &
Plaza on Saturday, November 4, 2017. The
exhibition will feature five large-scale sculptures and will be supplemented by
the presentation of preparatory drawings in the Bank of America Concourse
inside the Museum.
As a chronicle of humankind’s impact on our changing world — excessive hunting
and fishing, commerce, deforestation — and a record of dwindling biodiversity, The
Lost Bird Project memorializes North American birds that have been
driven to extinction. The Great Auk,
Labrador Duck, Passenger Pigeon, Carolina Parakeet, and Heath Hen were birds
that once filled unique niches in the North American landscape from the shores
of Labrador and New York to the Midwestern plains. Moved by their stories, American artist Todd
McGrain (b. 1961) set out to bring their vanished forms back into the world. Watch a video HERE.
“Todd McGrain’s sculptures not only look
majestic and beautiful,” states Cummer Museum Associate Curator Nelda
Damiano, “they also prompt us to think
about the role we play in protecting and preserving the world we live in.”
A bronze sculpture of each of the five birds has been permanently placed at a
specific location related to their decline, from Newfoundland to Florida, Ohio
to Martha’s Vineyard. The series on
exhibit at the Museum is a set that is touring the country, in the hope of
spreading awareness and evoking action. McGrain’s modern, elegant style
captures the essence of each species, making it universal and approachable. More importantly, these sculptures ask us not
to forget, and remind us of our duty to save fragile habitats and prevent
further extinction.
