The Perelman Performing Arts Center, the big marble cube downtown, has mounted its first mainstage theatre piece: the vaudeville “Between Two Knees,” by the 1491s, a comedy ensemble of self-described “indigenous misfits.” The show’s title refers to two bitter conflicts at Wounded Knee—the 1890 slaughter by the U.S. Army and the American Indian Movement’s seventy-one-day occupation of the town near the site, in 1973—but the mood in this lazy-day, cartoony retelling of three generations of Native American suffering remains darkly humorous. The worse things get, the more the company makes zany jokes; the 1491s started out posting videos of weird sketches online, and even now a loose, we’ll-fix-it-in-the-edit spirit pervades the piece.
