That awkward space between reality and reality television.
Wednesday, May 05, 2004
A rather large portion of my day is spent answering questions like: So, what's your season for next year? Do you have your season yet? When are you going to have your season? Why are you trying to sell me tickets to a season that hasn't been announced?
You get the picture.
Well, I'm proud to announce that we finally have a season set. My suggestions of Picasso at the Lapin Agile, The Odd Couple: Female Version, and Footloose: The Musical were promptly discarded.
Each year, Playmakers releases a brief "blurb" for each play to give people some idea of what the play is about. These "blurbs" are notoriously vague and often result in people calling me up to ask for a more in-depth synopsis. However, having only read one and a half of these plays, I shall try to out-do Playmakers in terms of vagueness.
The Tragedy of King Richard II by William Shakespeare
No nudity.
Not About Heroes by Stephen Macdonald
Obviously not about me.
Copenhagen by Michael Frayn
I was disappointed to find out that this play has nothing to do with tobacco.
Yellow Man by Dael Orlandersmith
...but this play, oh wait, that's Red Man. Nevermind.
Caesar and Cleopatra by George Bernard Shaw
Like Shakespeare, only in English.
So give me a call and I'll set you up with some tickets for what promises to be eight months of uproarious comedy (insert tongue into cheek).
