Fall down a rabbit hole or over a garden wall this autumn and let Little Village lead you through all the eye-opening fests, shows, revues and readings coming your way in the months ahead. On Sept. 27: the fourth-annual Lost Woods Music Festival, a Woodstock-esque wonderland in a Cedar Falls forest, bigger and stranger than ever.
Read interviews with: Matt Walsh (the good one! From that comedy you like!), Hedwig and the Angry Inch writer John Cameron Mitchell, feminist filmmaker and novelist Miranda July, world-renowned portrait painter Rose Franzten, Indigenous DJ Dirk Whitebreast, and Dick Klemensen, the madman behind the legendary Little Shoppe of Horrors magazine. Plus: Iowa Stage Theatre Company tackles the unspeakable scourge of reefer addiction; a kung fu movie veteran recalls the glory, gore and bad stereotypes of the genre; and the Grinnell grad and professor who brought mysterious musician Jandek to campus in 2006 explain themselves. Also inside: Book reviews, album reviews, and dozens upon dozens of things to do in your neck of the woods.
