News Perry Tannenbaum
Posted By Web Editor on Wed, Mar 11, 2009 at 4:29 PM
Perry Tannenbaum has been a regular contributor to Creative Loafing since it began publication in April of 1987. That makes him the senior theater and performing arts critic/reporter in the Metrolina area. For the past six years, Perry has been the Southeast Regional Correspondent for Back Stage, TheaterMania.com and American Record Guide, reviewing performances throughout the Carolinas – with annual excursions to Canada, Europe, or across the USA. Last year, he added Dance International and JazzTimes to his clientele. Aside from concert reviews, you’ll find CD reviews with Perry’s byline in every issue of JazzTimes and American Record Guide. Beyond the audacity to scrutinize the inner workings of the Arts & Science Council, Charlotte Repertory Theatre, and the Afro-American Children’s Theatre, Perry has had the audacity – and talent – to audition and perform at Children’s Theatre, innovative Theatre, Rock Hill Little Theatre, and yes, at Charlotte Rep. The arts are in Perry’s blood as well as his upbringing. His parents met at the Metropolitan Opera – waiting in line for standing room tickets to La Traviata. He went to his first Broadway comedy, starring Imogene Coca, shortly after breaking in his first baseball glove. One of the great joys of his job is traveling to the great opera houses, theaters, and music festivals of the world. Another is to come back to Charlotte and measure us against the world-class companies and performers of America and Europe, taking satisfaction in Charlotte’s steady growth and development.
