While You Weren't Looking
Caitlin Cary
Contrary to any beliefs harbored by alt-country neophytes, Whiskeytown was not the Ryan Adams Band. He may have been the band's brains, but Caitlin Cary was its heart, her delicate violin and charming voice keeping each track from falling into heartbreaking desperation. Her solo debut doesn't place her amongst the genre's sirens Neko Case and Kasey Chambers; instead it distills the refined sweetness of "Pneumonia" and emerges with a wistful folk-pop that draws upon an ability to take the best from collaborators (Jen Gunderman, formerly of the Jayhawks, and most members of Whiskeytown). Nothing shockingly deviant, but Cary never demanded the spotlight like her former bandmate.

U.Va. Spanish Theater
Retablo de la avaricia, la lujuria y la muerte
by Ramn del Valle-Incln
Apr. 4 - 6 at 8 p.m. and Apr. 7 at 5 p.m. in Helms Theater, $5
The U.Va. Spanish Theater Group, in its 22nd year, will present a play directed by Fernando Oper entitled "Retablo de la avaricia, la lujuria y la muerte" by Spanish playwright Ramn del Valle-Incln. Alongside Garca Lorca, Valle-Incln is one of the most recognized Spanish dramatists of the 20th century. He is particularly well-known for his impressionistic esperpentos which grotesquely depict the Spanish experience at the turn of the century. "Retablo de la avaricia, la lujuria y la muerte" is a three-part play which explores the themes of greed, lust and death.
The three plays are entirely in Spanish, but the program will contain detailed English synopses. Tickets can be purchased by calling the box office at (434) 924.3376. UVA students may purchase tickets using Arts Dollars.
