When: Aug. 30-31 at the Alameda County Fairgrounds in Pleasanton. Why go: You haven’t seen tests of brain, brawn and beauty until you have visited the games. See ancient battles of strength with the javelin toss, scores of Scottish beauties take a turn on the stage with traditional dances, and enjoy native foods from bonnie Scotland while listening to bagpipes and fiddles blasting in the background. If you aren’t Scottish after you attend the games, you are going to wish you were. Must do: Bagpipe competitions and strength tests are by far the most entertaining to see. The dance performances are fun to clap along to, and the fiddlers and bands that play will get your juices pumping as you can’t help but get out on the dance floors. Those who show up in costume and those who come in “clans” make this festival authentic. Enjoy visiting each clan and take a turn wielding swords and learning of Scotland’s diverse and delightful history.

If the exchanges in this two-hander could use a dash more sexual charge, the universality of the power dynamics is potent indeed. Ambiguity reigns in this dark parable, which certainly resonates in today’s landscape, where mindless corporate doublespeak and radical restructuring of the workforce have become the norm.
