A Cherished Night with Ellis Paul at Off Cabot
‘The world ain’t slowin’ down’ - Ellis Paul Do you ever have your brain kicking you to do something? The generous Off Cabot staff recommended that I attend An Evening with Ellis Paul. I was on the fence for most of the day, and if that voice didn’t tell me, ‘If you don’t go, you’ll regret it,” I would have missed a profound evening with the amazing and talented musician, Ellis Paul.

But beneath the surface of this pop-culture phenomenon lies something even more meaningful: a human story about connection, creativity, and belonging.

Why 90s Cartoons Meant So Much to Us
There is something magical evoked by the mere mention of 90s cartoons. For me and many others who were lucky enough to grow up during the decade, the theme songs themselves – the high-energy riffs of X-Men, the dorky optimism of Doug, the go-go call of DuckTales (ahem, technically began late 80s but reached its peak 90s!) – are powerful nostalgia triggers.

“I aimed for whimsy, but landed on twee. It’s a fine line, people, it’s a fine line.” This is something I can picture my imaginary 1940s screenwriter persona saying. Fed-up with the intensity of films noir, set in the mean streets of dimly-lit cities, she has turned her hand to some light comedy. It doesn’t work. She knows it hasn’t worked. It’s just – well, twee. Too sweet. Lacks bite.
