once again an entire month has gone by since i last blogged here.
in^significant others opened and has been doing really well. the photograph is of our "taxi tops" that are appearing all over town this month (we had some last month, too but twice as many this month). getting the show open was so much work. we had very little time to build and load in our set and even less time to rehearse before previews. the two previews were a bit rocky - and then on opening night - the magic happened and the show was fantastic. we have such a talented cast and audiences are eating this up. the cd sales in the lobby are going really well (jay is signing them for people at most performances). we've been learning many things as we go along and ticket sales keep increasing. we have a great concessions person - nate! and he even spends time getting people to buy tickets at the tix booth in union square. nate is a keeper.
one of the things we didn't take into account in our pre planning was the laundry (duh) and so i have stepped up as the "wardrobe mistress" for the show. not too bad but next time we won't forget this crucial component!
there are some exciting plans in the works, that i'm not at liberty to talk about but will be able to in a couple of weeks or so.
angel face, word for word's noir thriller from the cornell woolrich short story is loading in from z space to the project artaud theater. previews start next tuesday, august 7th and the gala opening is august 10th. the play (another must see) is running through september 2nd.
another z space project - citizen josh - with our producing partner jonathan reinis productions - is beginning a limited run at berkeley rep on august 16 (will run through september 2nd). if you didn't get a chance to see this one man show from josh kornbluth earlier this summer at the magic theatre, don't miss it at berkeley rep. josh is a local national treasure and the show is a great exploration of democracy in action.
more later
