LOU'S VIEWS: A little something new on the Prairie
June 16, 2012
Lou HarryI’ve been taking my kids and their pals to Conner Prairie for 15 years. But the most recent visit was the first time
they wanted to spend the whole time in Prairietown.
MoreLOU'S VIEWS: Myth-busting the Indy arts scene

MoreLOU'S VIEWS: No great Shakes
April 28, 2012
Lou HarryIt shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that, with limited resources, IUPUI’s Hoosier Bard Productions doesn’t
make a masterpiece out of the most obscure of Shakespeare’s plays—one that may not even be Shakespeare’s
play at all. To be sure, “The History of Cardenio” is an oddity.

April 21, 2012
Lou HarryThoughts on 'One Man, Two Guvnors,' 'Other Desert Cities,' 'Peter and the Starcatcher' and more.
MoreLOU'S VIEWS: Live on Broadway it's ... Larry Bird?
April 14, 2012
Lou HarryOften stilted, often hokey, and just as often charming, “Magic/Bird” is a Broadway oddball—a biographical
drama without romance and without family conflict, but with an ample supply of game clips and a very mobile backboard.
MoreLOU'S VIEWS: Urban etchings reveal treasures
April 7, 2012
Lou HarryThis week: a small but strong show at the IMA, plus thoughts on the Humana Festival, A&E road trips, and some Disney magic.

MoreLOU'S VIEWS: The art we leave behind
March 24, 2012
Lou HarryAt services for my daughter, there came an outpouring of support—much of it from the Indy arts community—that
I can compare only to my first time looking out over the Grand Canyon.
MoreLOU'S VIEWS: Cycling through the Eiteljorg a delightful experience
March 17, 2012
Lou HarryThe Eiteljorg's "Steel Ponies" is a rare museum show that feels both surprisingly original and perfectly in line with its
mission. Plus thoughts on Dan Barden's new novel and a must-see Sondheim revival in Cincy.
MoreLOU'S VIEWS: Parents behave badly in 'God of Carnage'
March 10, 2012
Lou HarryPolitics aren’t discussed much in Yasmina Reza’s “God of Carnage” (at the IRT through March 24). But
after watching a performance, you might find yourself wondering how global superpowers—let alone political parties or
religious groups—can possibly get along when the play’s two seemingly civilized couples can’t even have
an 85-minute discussion without leaving emotional shrapnel everywhere.

personal and apocalyptic.

February 18, 2012

My favorite magician is Mickey in Fantasia.
I ate at a Steak n Shake a couple of weeks ago and was amused to see a poster of him (and a lineup of employees) just inside the entrance. You don't see that at other chains -- OK maybe Dave the Wendy's guy, but that was when he was also in their TV ads.
Well he wasn't a magician in the latest movie, but up in Fort Wayne he was featured on Happy the Hobo when I was a kid and I LOVED THE SHOW!
Shake Shack>Steak n' Shake
I really enjoyed the Hollywood Bar and Film works, they had good food and decent prices I understand that parking was one of the reasons for its closing. If other major events were going downtown parking was expensive if not impossible. Hope the new cinema bar will have parking.
