Neighborhood: Eastside Industrial

In a city that gets this much rain, it is useful to have a neighborhood that exists partly beneath bridges. (read more) Under the Burnside Bridge is the guerrilla concrete of Burnside Skatepark; tucked below the Marquam Bridge is the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (1945 SE Water Ave., 797-4000, omsi.edu), with its IMAX dome theater projecting gigantic penguins and dinosaurs. In between, its warehouses that have been turned into bars and warehouses that are still used as warehouses. Among the former: the back-deck chill of Produce Row Cafe (204 SE Oak St., 232-8355, producerowcafe.com), the rowdy well My Father’s Place (523 SE Grand Ave., 235-5494, myspace.com/523mfp), and the legendary men’s-room graffiti at rock venue Rotture (315 SE 3rd Ave., 234-5683, rotture.com). Among the latter: the actual produce—and stew hens—on sale at Sheridan Fruit Co. (409 SE Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd., 236-2114, sheridanfruit.com), the party supplies and princess costumes at the Lippman Co. (50 SE Yamhill St., 239-7007, lippmancompany.com), and Tazo Tea Co. (301 SE 2nd Ave., 736-9005, tazo.com), whose brewing process makes the night air smell like cloves. —Aaron Mesh

I don't think Mr. Waterhouse is being fair to the play. Perhaps he can't multitask between reading supratitles and watching the action on stage. That is not a deficit with the performance, but with Mr. Waterhouse unfair review. For Mr. Waterhouse to discount Nelda Reye's performance as the lonely and quasi crazy radio fan, or Nurys Herrera's radio Diva panache is unforgivable. Willamette Week needs to send someone who is more competent and fair to review plays that are not in English.
