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…
First, thank you to everyone for the great comments and shout–outs about this idea. A lot of helpful questions and suggestions were raised, and it seems like there’s a genuine hunger for some version of the Indie Theatre Repertory idea. Here are my initial responses, a little further down the brainstorm: Remount vs New Production:…
Flux is about to be slammed by rehearsals beginning for The Lesser Seductions of History, so now is the time for us to get in our shout-outs for all the other great shows happening in (holy smokes it’s) October. The Dark Heart Of Meteorology features the sound design of our own IT-Award winning Asa Wember,…
(What is Flux Sunday?) Our last Flux Sunday before The Lesser Seductions of History takes us over was great, if it nearly killed me getting us there! Sometimes, the amount of roles the playwrights write match perfectly with the attending actors; and then there are times where I have to write us into a balance….
One of the greatest challenges facing the indie theatre field (and so the whole NYC theatre field) is the ability of Equity Showcase productions to transfer to longer runs. The focus of this challenge has been primarily directed towards Equity and the showcase code itself, but there may be something we as field can do…
I just finished a read through of Rami Metal’s lovely play, Lullabye (thank you Mark, Polly, Matt, Lynn, Marnie and Christina) and was reminded of just how many good plays are out there that need doing here in NYC. The idea that most new plays are bad may be true, but it is more true…
We all had a great time at the NYIT Awards last night. We laughed at host Julie Halston, admired Matthew Freeman’s script contributions, loved the documentary of Maria Irene Fornes, grooved with the Brick’s dancing freaks, bowed down before the MFTA, and cheered the winners, most especially our own Asa Wember for Sound Design for…
Our first Flux Sunday at NYR Studios, where Flux is a resident company, was everything we’d been hoping for. We had room to move! Each of our three scenes had a comfortable space to work in, and the results were undeniable. There was a burst of energy and productivity that has me hoping this relationship…
Reason 1: He interviewed me as a part of his playwright series, and I talk about all sorts of things, including our upcoming production of The Lesser Seductions of History. Reason 2: He has posted the cover of the published script of Pretty Theft and it is both crazy hot and a wee bit familiar…but…
