Oh hey -- more updates!
In March of 2009, I directed a play by the brilliant Jordan Harrison (who wrote Act A Lady) called Kid-Simple, a radio play in the flesh. The play follows Moll, a girl genius, who creates a machine that can hear sounds not apparent to the naked ear. When the machine is stolen by an evil mercenary who pretends to be in love with her, she is determined to get it back! Armed with her ingenuity, a plethora of random things and a boy virgin, Moll sets off to reclaim her machine and get revenge. WHAT A BADASS PLOT! The show also featured the foley artist and music of my good friend and the super-talented ukelele rockstar Megg Farrell -- check out some of her solo stuff on her myspace (http://www.myspace.com/meggfarrellmusic)
The play was produced by my good friend and partner-in-crime Jennifer Smith (also a member of last years Downstage Theatre Project) who hopped on board instantly and really made it happen. The show was our first venture into independent producing and I couldn't have been more ecstatic with the reaction. The show was performed in the Sound Stage at Sarah Lawrence's Heimbold Arts Center.
