Looking for something to do this Tuesday night? Well, you could see a reading of Johnna Adams’ Sans Merci directed by Jessi Hill at the New Group featuring Judith Ivey. After all, this is the play that lovingly destroyed me only a month or two ago in a reading at APAC. It is an extraordinary…
(This cool season poster above was created by Kelly O’Donnell for the Battle) We have a cast for our upcoming production of Pretty Theft, and it’s a great mix of Members, friends, and new folks. Playwright Adam Szymkowicz, Director Angela Astle and myself worked very hard on achieving a consensus, and the rewards of that…
Did you love Gregory Waller as the pleasure addicted prime minister Zynth in Rue? Fall for his smooth talking Fortune Clay in Angel Eaters? The check out his work in One Year Lease’s current production of The Bald Soprano. You will surely see some Fluxers, myself included, in the audience!
SOMETIMES, things get a little messy. And so it was with our participation in Battle of the Bards, Partial Comfort Productions fund-raiser that pitted us against 6 other companies (PCP included) to write a short play based on a TV remote control. The event was structured a little like an Elizabethan playhouse – the VIPs…

So you’ve already bought your tickets for Battle of the Bards (and thank your doing that!). But how, oh how, will you be able to stay in touch with Flux after that but before Pretty Theft? Why not check out this event from our friendly neighborhood company Impetuous Theater Group that features a play from…
Flux represented last night at the final Julliard performance of Adam Szymkowicz’s new play, Hearts Like Fists. Adam is the playwright of our upcoming Spring show, Pretty Theft; and so Jason, Cotton, Christina, Heather, Johnna, Isaiah and myself left our Flux Sunday adventures a little early to check it out. And it was a delight!…
In contrast to the last post, here’s some very good news* from the LA Times blog Culture Monster about the East West Players. They are celebrating their 44th birthday, making them the country’s longest operating professional theatre of color. What I liked especially was when asked why they had survived and thrived for so long,…
Though I never got out to Brooklyn to see a show at Tuckaberry Productions, I know a number of their regular artists and they seemed like genuinely good people, bringing quality childrens theatre to an under-served community. With all the big theatres making big splashes with their big financial woes, the email announcement of Tuckaberry’s…
