Have Another #6

Our next installment of Have Another is Wednesday the 6th from 7PM-10PM. We’ll be returning to the friendly confines of Jimmy’s #43, located downstairs at 43 East 7th Street between 2nd and 3rd Ave. There is no cover, just some of our favorite scenes from Flux Sunday shared over drinks with friends. I’m especially excited…

On Tulpa, or Anne & Me

“be careful. this might bring out things you might not be ready for.” Playwright Shawn C. Harris (aka RVCBard) asked me to write a response to her play Tulpa, or Anne & Me. Having seen the staged reading directed by Flux’s Heather Cohn and featuring Flux collaborators Raushanah Simmons, Lori Parquet, Antoinette Broderick and Katie…

(Photo: Isaiah Tanenbaum. Pictured: The cart, moments before it leaves the stage for China) What a closing weekend! Two out of the three final shows sold out; two out of three with standing ovations; all three shows among our best. I think it was the strongest we’ve ever closed a show (though to quote Szymborska,…

Dog Act Review: Helen Shaw, Time Out New York

(Photo: Isaiah Tanenbaum. Pictured: Liz Douglas, Chris Wight, Becky Byers) Helen Shaw’s review for Time Out New York is out!

Dog Act Response: Shawn Harris, RVC Bard

Harris, the playwright of Tulpa, or Anne & Me, uses Dog Act as a springboard to consider the power of naming, particularly as it concerns the ongoing development of her queer Black womanist liberation poiesis.

Pictured: Liz Douglas, Becky Byers) I hadn’t heard of Big Vision, Empty Wallet (though I connect a wee bit with the concept) and so was psyched that Mateo Moreno’s review was not only good, but introduced me to a new website! It’s a combo review with Beirut, another play that imagines the…

(Photo: Isaiah Tanenbum. Pictured: Zack Robidas, Julian Stetkevych) John Peacock has made Flavorpill an Editor Pick! Though short, it certainly is sweet, and I’m happy to choose this as my favorite quote: A brilliant blend of savagery and poignancy, the play succeeds in being humorous and thoughtful in equal measures, an elegy for humanity and…
