Rob Weinert-Kendt has a great post about the most produced playwrights at TCG’s Member Theatres* (with a few Broadway productions thrown in to boot). Maria MacCarthy has a follow-up looking at the gender ratio of the list; 99Seats and Parabasis widen that lens further; all good reads. These posts got me wondering about productions at…
I am thrilled to congratulate Stolen Chair Theatre Company on their winning The Field’s ERPA Award, which includes a $20,000 grant! Beyond the simple joy of seeing an Indie company snare such a prestigious (an economically useful) award, I’m excited because I love this idea and have been advocating for a Fluxy version of this…
The latest adds: Matthew Archambault: Our intrepid Barry in The Lesser Seductions of History has a web page with updates, now easily accessible through our blog roll. The Wicked Stage: I actually thought this was already on our blog roll…glaring omission amended. CultureFuture: Guy Yedwab is a director/writer/actor/producer who also writes this great arts development…
Take a second to recover from that pretentious post title, and then take a few more seconds to consider that search engines and social media both represent shifts in how we acquire knowledge, and as such, create new models for how we experience story.

Along with the blog, this is our way of opening up our rehearsal process to you. The tweets take two forms: @LesserSedux I’m posting moments of clarity and hilarity in the rehearsal process as they…
Monday 10.5.09 Another good rehearsal. I really appreciate that we start the reheasals with a discussion of what may have happened to the characters between the years that are not written in the script. It really helps me to connect not only with my character, Marie, but the other characters as well. Also Heather goes…
Is Thomas Cott the Steven Colbert of arts administrators? I ask, only half in jest, based on the similarities between the much lauded Colbert Bump and our own recently experienced Cott Bump. The Colbert Bump is the hypothesis that politicians experience a ‘bump’ in their popularity immediately after appearing on the Stephen Colbert show. Thomas…
Tiffany here,Flux has started rehearsals for Lesser Seductions. Friday night I was really anxious and excited for the rehearsal process to finally begin. A rehearsal process for me is a chance for me to grow as an actor and sometimes as a person. It is really exciting to me that all Flux members are involved…
So we’ve moved into rehearsal time, which, (as you probably know), is also the time where we most need your help. We’ll be swimming in all of the necessary work to make The Lesser Seductions of History as beautiful and vital as possible; just at the time when we also need to market the show…
(Looking for tickets to Lesser Seductions?) Rehearsals began this weekend for The Lesser Seductions of History. Usually, I have a moderate to high level of panic as rehearsals begin, but this weekend (I say with great caution out of fear of jinxing things) went really well. There is a focus, positive energy and playfulness in…
