Note:
Check out Flavorwire's exclusive interview with Tim Robbins.
Given that Tim Robbins founded the Actors Gang in response to a lack of opportunities for independent writers and actors to produce socially and politically salient new work, it's no surprise that his response to the threat of a paralyzing budget crunch was to curate an ambitious ten-week fundraising festival of theatre, dance, music, conversation, performance, and education. Featuring a new experience every Tuesday through Saturday until the end of December, Robbins brings together scores of voices as diverse as those of Tom Morello, Naomi Klein, Gore Vidal, John Doe, Sarah Silverman, anti-war veterans, and members of Cirque du Soleil — all in the name of saving one of the country's bravest voices for progressive art by raising not only money, but awareness. Upcoming highlights include Tom Morello on Dec 5, John Doe and Jill Sobule on Dec 12, Vox Femina with Culver City caroling on Dec 19, and the ongoing Johnny Cash prison-tribute/cooking-show concert, All Cake, No File.
