These days, we can send random thoughts, meaningless musings and politically charged invective to countless people with just a couple of clicks on our phones. But there was a time when the tales, thoughts and wishes that made their way from generation to generation had to have some serious meat on their bones to compel folks to pass them along. Folk tales and folk songs were conveyed by folks. Actual people. No bandwidth or log-in required. The multi-disciplinary TeCo Theatrical Productions presentation of The Clothesline Muse will approach these deliberate, old-world modes of communication in a progressive, new-school manner by blending jazz, spoken word, dance, video and interactive art. See the show at 7:30 p.m. Thursday or Friday, or at 3 p.m. Sunday, at the Bishop Arts Theatre Center (215 S. Tyler St.). Visit tecotheatre.org for more.
Fridays, 7:30 p.m.; Sun., April 5, 3 p.m. Starts: April 3. Continues through April 4, 2015
