Saskia Olde Wolbers (Dutch, born 1971) creates films in which her hand-built environments become the primary vehicles for expression, suggesting both the physical and metaphorical spaces between people. “Placebo” is loosely based on the life of a man who spent 18 years pretending to be a doctor for the World Health Organization in Geneva. In Wolbers’ reimagining of the story, an unnamed and unseen narrator wakes in a hospital bed after being in a car crash with her lover, Jean. Start: 6:00 pm

Steely Dan – iconic, nuanced and hyper-literate - is highly regarded by connoisseurs of pop hooks, jazz harmony and desiccating wit for their inventive music-making. Spearheaded by a pair of resourceful musical auteurs – Donald Fagen and Walter Becker - they have done nothing by the books since launching Steely Dan in 1972. This highly anticipated concert is their first St. Louis theatre performance since 1974. | ||
