| | Thrillist Boston Wednesday August 26, 2009 The List Hump This, Indeed New Club: Oberon 2 Arrow St, at Massachusetts Ave; Harvard Square; 617.495.2668 Cambridge's American Repertory Theater has overhauled its alternate secondary stage, Zero Arrow, into a permanent participatory theater lounge/nightclub that's only open on show nights and features a full bar, VIP seating, and massive 200 person dance floor. The Shakespeare-inspired, burlesque-disco-driven production currently playing is called the Donkey Show, because all the world's a stage, but this one just happens to have donkeys on it. Don't worry, just looking at AmericanRepertory Theater.org doesn't obligate you to dance Get Artsy: Print Your Canvas Based in Connecticut, PYL easily transfers photographs onto canvas as a straight picture, oil painting, or a stylized print converted into one of six artistic designs such as graphic novel, Warhol Pop Art, Lichtenstein, Shep Fairey, or even "Che" -- the perfect reminder that you reject both neocolonialistic monopoly capitalism and regularly scheduled haircuts. Seriously, your bachelor party would look so different as a canvas Obama poster
