Fluency!
Need something to do this August? As usual, I'll be urging those of us in the NYC area to check out the New York International Fringe Festival, FringeNYC.
This year I'll be directing and performing in Rake Theater's "Fluency", written by my friend and longtime collaborator, Kimberly Patterson.
What's it about?
Jack's an actor; Olivia's a playwright. They're better at kissing than communicating! Can they learn the language of love? Watch as they perform classic scenes: "first date," "awkward breakup" and "happy ending." A meta-theatrical romantic comedy from South Florida.
But you're not from South Florida!
No, I'm not. That's where Rake Theater is.
So, are you Jack or Olivia?
Olivia.
Isn't it funny that the character is named Jack?
Highly.
Did Kim do that for you?
No. She just likes the name.
More details, location, dates and performance times to come soon. Feel free to make more Jack comments. Those of you with nursery rhyme names are welcome to share anecdotes of childhood name-banes.

i do not know why your posts do not show up in my feed reader anymore, congrats again on your fringenyc plans! i didn't know kissing was not communicating. it has always been a great argument ender, personally. it is like saying, SHUT UP and I WIN all at once. but i could be saying it wrong, too, you know, slip of the tongue.
