Maldoror

If you’re bored by the real-life villains populating the world, spend some time with imaginary baddie Maldoror, brainchild of the Surrealist enfant terrible Isidore-Lucien Ducasse, aka le Comte de Lautréamont. Maldoror’s dark soul is brought to life by the virtuoso acrobatics, zoomorphic costumes and experimental electronic music of Seattle’s ever-innovative UMO Ensemble, which combines poetry, film and athleticism to give a peek inside the mind of evil.  The performance will have a second staging 9/20-9/30 at West of Lenin theater in Fremont (westoflenin.com)
