That is the goal of site-specific theater, a genre whose popularity is on the rise. Essentially it refers to plays produced in places directly relevant to their action. Audiences have seen productions performed in abandoned rail yards and hospital cancer wards; last summer theatergoers were bused out to Edinburgh airport for the Scottish theater troupe Grid Iron’s production of “Roam.” As ticketholders passed through check-in and security screening, actors performed various vignettes about travel....

Guardiola: Yaya is an amateur The Germany international has long been linked with a move away from the Emirates as contract talks with the Gunners slowed, and a potential switch to Parc des Princes was rumoured during the January transfer window. Draxler himself is a new arrival at PSG, having completed his transfer from Wolfsburg, and admitted he would love to be joined by Ozil in the French capital....

In the late stages of the Pelicans-Warriors matchup Tuesday night, Green made what appeared to be a clean strip of Anthony Davis with time expiring. Davis was none too pleased with the lack of a whistle. MORE: Biggest surprises, disappointments from the 2016-17 NBA season so far Green’s takeaway came with about four seconds remaining and Golden State up by two points. It all but secured the win for the Warriors....

During the Houston Rockets’ 132-127 win over the Golden State Warriors on Thursday night, Draymond Green’s foot met James Harden’s face. The kick was ruled a Flagrant 1 foul with the official description from the NBA league office: “unnatural leg extension.” MORE: Iman Shumpert intensifies rivalry between Cavs and Warriors Of course Green has never really been able to keep his feet to himself. He kicked Oklahoma City Thunder forward Steven Adams in the groin during the 2016 Western Conference Finals....

The comeback he led in the final minute and a half against the Vikings in U.S. Bank Stadium on Sunday night would have gone down in NFL lore and cemented his legacy even further. “This would’ve been one for the ages, if we had been able to pull it off,” he said afterward. If. The Saints didn’t, as the world knows and will never forget. So their drive from their own 25-yard line to the Vikings’ 25 for what almost was the game-winning, rally-capping field goal with 25 seconds left became a footnote....

A spokesperson for Emma Children’s Hospital of Amsterdam University Medical Center told Newsweek an inbox dedicated to the cause has received 5,000 messages since researchers appeared on TV on Wednesday urging women to participate. “We expect a lot of these women are going to donate breast milk,” the spokesperson said. “We are very excited that the number is high.” Those who agree will be asked to donate 100 milliliters of breast milk, according to a statement from the institution....

Goal predicts the MLS knockout round The Ivorian striker did not train Tuesday due to a back injury, and Impact head coach Mauro Biello conceded his side would likely have to play without the 38-year-old at RFK Stadium. “I don’t think those chances will be good,” Biello said. “He hasn’t trained, he still feels a discomfort, so the chances are very minimal.” Drogba hasn’t played at all since a 20-minute appearance off the bench on Sept....

Researchers from the University of Exeter and the Center for Whale Research concluded that the marine predators, feared in the open water and long a feature of Sea World theme parks, form complex social structures in their pods. “Until now, research on killer whale social networks has relied on seeing the whales when they surface, and recording which whales are together,” Michael Weiss, lead author of a new research study, said in a statement....

Earlier in Wednesday’s NL wild-card game vs. the Cardinals, the Dodgers ace seemingly refused to leave the mound after manager Dave Roberts came out to replace him. Shortly after Los Angeles’ wild-card win, however, a shirtless and seemingly drunk Scherzer was all smiles when he hopped on the TBS postgame show with Ernie Johnson Jr. and Co.

Dry eye is a condition where the eyes don’t produce enough quality tears to lubricate, clean, and moisturize their surface. This causes symptoms including redness, itching, and burning eyes, and it can lead to vision problems if it’s not treated and vision changes if severe. Eye floaters are shapes that appear in the line of vision. Floaters aren’t dangerous, although they can be a sign of an underlying issue....

The US Gypsum Company has added an inert ingredient or two to their drywall formula that allows them to trademark the “Sheetrock,” but their formula isn’t meaningfully different from other brands. It’s sort of like the difference between Kleenex and generic tissue paper. Sheetrock developed a reputation for being safer than generic brands because Chinese manufacturers used too much sulfur from 2000 to 2009 (which can cause health problems). Today, Sheetrock is no safer than any other high-quality drywall company’s product....

Frist, who was on his way to Asia last week, and chewed him out. “It was pretty tough,” one source told NEWSWEEK. “Rove told him he ’needed to understand the gravity of the situation’.” The military war may be winding down in Iraq, but the short tempers show that the political front is opening at home–and that fighting will be fierce. With the campaign season months away (for Democratic presidential hopefuls, it’s long since begun), the outlines of the Bush re-election strategy are emerging....

That’s what happens when you dominate two races held on similar 1.5-mile tracks this season. Harvick led the most laps at both Atlanta and Las Vegas and came away with a 1.5 average finish, including his first career Cup win at Vegas. Could Texas be his next first-time conquest? Let’s take a look at all the drivers odds offered by the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook and see if there might be some ‘value’ on a few of the other drivers if you so dare to doubt Harvick’s chances of winning this week...

It was the Ducks that quacked last though, earning a big second point in the process. Nick Ritchie finally put an end to the 11-round shootout when he slipped a shot through Dubnyk’s legs to end the back-and-forth marathon, securing a 3-2 victory for Anaheim. Matt Dumba, Matt Cullen, Derek Grant, and Jared Spurgeon each got their first shootout attempts of the season. The 11 rounds marks a new franchise record for Minnesota, surpassing its previous record of nine....

In the first half of Blue Devils' Champions Classic game vs. Kansas, Parker showed his ability to hit from distance (he hit 4-of-5 3-pointers), from the free throw line (he hit all three of his free throws), and from the lane amid three Jayhawks defenders. And, get ready for the close-up. PHOTOS: Best shots from the Champions Classic In the first 20 minutes, Parker scored 19 points on 6-of-10 shooting....

UNC’s Brice Johnson posted 18 points and 12 rebounds and Kennedy Meeks also scored 18 points as the Tar Heels easily covered the the 8....

The only difference between them was a technicality: Parker remained as a spectator, occupying a seat on the Duke bench as the Devils attempted to erase a one-possession deficit inside the final 20 seconds. The scouts left the building to beat postgame traffic and missed the end.
