Yes…After so long…It’s finally happening…The return of bar staged reading series at Jimmy’s #43, Have Another!You might remember Have Another from its previous incarnations. But it’s been over a year since we’ve held this event. Why are we bringing it back, besides the obvious fact that theatre over beer is fun? Because we want to…
What is Flux Sunday? While not quite the groove fest of last week, our last Flux Sunday before our short summer break was solid. We heard scenes from Johnna Adams, Jeremy Basescu, Mary Fengar Gail, myself and first time (as playwrights) Zack Calhoon and Anthony Wills Jr. Some Sundays, each play speaks to the other,…

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…
ALL CYLINDERS CLICKING Every once in a while, Flux Sundays will have a lightening strike day. All the scripts are tight, the actors connect with the roles, and each scene passes some essential undroppable thing to the next. It doesn’t happen often, but boy did it happen on January 11th, and with all of us…
BLACK AND WHITE AND BLUEOur last Flux Sunday of 2008 was the most intimate we’d had in a while, and that combined with Michael’s delicious cookies gave the day a relaxed holiday air. We read a bunch of pages from Rob Ackerman’s Volleygirls and my 60’s play, and three delicious pages from Johnna Adam’s Lickspittles,…
This was the last Flux Sunday before the trilogy began, and again, it was a full three hours, with scenes from Rob Ackerman’s Volley Girls, Johnna Adam’s Lickspittles, Buttonholers and Damn Pernicious Go Betweens, Jeremy Basescu’s The Will, Mary Fengar Gail’s Beggar At The Feast, and my own 60’s play. Over two months later, I…
Yes, I’ve been a wee bit derelict in posting about our Flux Sunday activities – trilogies will do that to you. And I know that somewhere in the first half of the year, a Flux Sunday went unreported on this blog, a victim to this swiftly tilting 2008. Sometimes this blog feels like the Buendia…
I know what you’re thinking, that Flux Fusion was all well and good and informative, but what I really want after the Trilogy is even more Johnna Adams. Fearless reader, get thee to Astoria on Wednesday the 10th at 7PM for a staged reading of her play, Sans Merci!As if that weren’t incentive enough, Angel…
Here’s a sneak peek at two of the plays of our Angel Eaters Trilogy, courtesy of our multi-talented playwright, Johnna Adams. These are just to whet your appetite – more will follow. But why settle for pictures when you can see the real thing?(Photo: Johnna Adams. Pictured: Cotton Wright, Marnie Schulenburg)(Photo: Johnna Adams. Pictured: Candice…
