News (note that
links may not work) May, 2007 Come
see me in The
Pretentious Festival (blog,
movie).
I'm in two shows - Lisa
Ferber & Paul Nelson's
new musical Dinner at
Precisely 8:13 and a theatrical lecture entitled Every Play Ever Written: A
Distillation of the Essence of Theatre. The former is delightful,
the latter is the most important play ever produced. Ahem.
Tickets.
March, 2007 Would
that all photo
shoots were this fun. The Brick
Theater's Pretentious
Festival, as photographed by Tim Brown.
![]() Goofballery above committed by me, Robert Honeywell, Berit Johnson, and Jason Robert Bell. February, 2007 WICKETS
has closed. It was a
great success, with support from donors, industry and the public. No
official reviews, as a 4-day run isn't very editor-friendly, but
some reactions can be found here
and here.
January, 2007 WICKETS.
Created by Clove Galilee and Jenny Rogers.
Thursday - Sunday, January 25 - 28th. HERE Arts Center. December, 2006 Wickets
tickets
on sale now! With only 4 performances (and only 55 seats), the show is
already selling out. And how could it not? - it's Fefu and her Friends
set on a jetliner. You, the audience, sit inside a plane
(first, business, or coach - arrive early for your choice). We, the actresses,
are your stewardesses,
and we perform the play around you while serving drinks and snacks. We
have drink carts, safety demonstrations and feminist
discourse.
Watch video
of me from August's showing.
November, 2006 Mountain Hotel.
Identity is a small price to pay for happiness. (Update: President
Havel changed
his mind about his own play after visiting our production.)
October, 2006 how to disappear completely
performs Friday & Saturday, November 3rd
& 4th, in Baltimore at the Creative
Alliance.
Still Life is having its premiere on Sunday, 29 October at the Anthology Film Archives as part of the Sinister Six. It was a risky and difficult project; please do come. September, 2006 I've just started
work on Vaclev
Havel's The
Mountain Hotel, an English-language premiere in
Untitled Theatre Co. #61's Havel
Festival.
I'm filming Daniel McKleinfeld's Still Life. I play a schizophrenic woman in the middle of a breakdown. I'd say it's Oscar bait, but 8-minute art films don't get noticed by the Academy, do they? August, 2006 Greed: A
Musical
Love $tory returns!
After our hit run during
The $ellout Festival in July, Lindy, Anna Nicole, Joyce, Yeats and J.
Howard Smith come back for another go around. See me in the performance
that landed me in Time Out.
Wickets. It's Fornes' Fefu and her Friends ... on a plane. I play Fefu, your head stewardess, in this deconstruction/adaptation set on a 1970s jetliner. You sit in coach, business or first class. The actresses are your stewardesses. We wear outfits. We serve drinks and snacks. Indeed. HERE/Mabou Mines artists Jenny Rogers and Clove Galilee are the masterminds and this is only the first showing in what will be an 18 month development process. Two nights only at P.S.122 - Aug 26 & 28. Call 212.529.8696 for reservations. I've started rehearsal for the dance(!) theatre piece how to disappear completely with Sarah Seely's acclaimed company movement addiction. We'll perform in Baltimore in November and here in New York in 2007. July, 2006 Greed has closed.
I'm taking a nap.
June, 2006 ![]() Greed: A Musical Love $tory. Rapturous reviews. Perplexed audiences. Good times. Come to The Brick Theater for The $ellout Festival and see me hold the stage for 68 minutes of singing, dancing, accounting fraud, existential crisis, and boobs. Also, Irish poetry. Also, Chinese food. Also, "one of the best new musicals in town..." May, 2006 Very exciting. Come
to the Metropolitan Museum to see me sing with Steve Ross in A Tribute to Dietz &
Schwartz. I'll be appearing alongside Steve, KT Sullivan
and Jean Brassard. I'm sinking my my teeth into some gorgeous, and
largely forgotten, music. May 16, 8pm. Tickets
at 212-570-3956.
February, 2006 Richard Foreman's Symphony of Rats
and Film is Evil: Radio is Good
in rep at The Brick Theater. Great reviews,
most markedly in the later, where I'm dubbed a "fascist
temptress."
