By Eric Anderson · Sunday, June 13,2004 9:08 p.m.

By Liv Cole · Sunday, June 13,2004 9:06 p.m.

In Jon Brooks' intelligently written "The Button," now showing on the Bloomington Playwright's Project Timothy J. Wiles stage, the provocative power of a little red button becomes an item of mystery and intrigue in the final mainstage BPP play of the season.

Picture the 1950s: black and white television shows, root beer stands, Elvis Presley beginning to sway his hips, sweet southern ladies on the radio, greased-back hair, sock hops, knee-length skirts, pony tails and rolled-up jeans.

So much for liking good music

I'll be honest -- I bought the hype, caved in to peer pressure and went out and bought a copy of Xiu Xiu's Fabulous Muscles.
