Around the World in 80 Days Opens at Arizona Theatre Company

For those of you in the Arizona area (and I'm looking at you Corinna Bertram), Around the World in 80 Days opens March 7 at the Arizona Theatre Company in Tucson. The production is directed by David P. Saar. He's won a fancy Governor's Arts Award for his contributions to the arts in Arizona. The show stars Mark Anders, Jon Gentry, the spectacularly named Yolanda London, Kyle Sorrell and Bob Sorenson. What I love about Arizona Theatre is they perform in two [...]

Google Translation of Erzurum State Theatre Production

There are a couple of articles about the Erzurum State Theatre production of Around the World in 80 Days. One is on diyadinnet.com. There's another one on haberciniz.com. I can't read Turkish so had to rely on Google translate.

B Street’s Around the World in 80 Days

The other week I posted about the B Street Theatre going to India with their production of Around the World in 80 Days. Today there's a nice article by Marcus Chowder in the Sacramento Bee about B Street's first international tour. I shall now magically pull the quotes that are most favorable to me. "Busfield pitched 'Lobby Hero' again and got nowhere. But when he told them about Mark Brown’s broadly performed satire 'Around the World in 80 Days,' they were [...]

Arizona Theatre Company Goes Around the World

I recently posted about productions of Around the World in 80 Days in India and Turkey but if you're not going to be passing by either of those countries you can stop by the foreign country of Arizona* to see 80 Days at the Arizona Theatre Company. The show is being directed by David P. Saar. The cast includes Mark Anders, Jon Gentry, Yolanda London, Kyle Sorrell and Bob Sorenson. I don't know any of those people. It always makes me [...]

Around the World in 80 Days – Turkey

I think this is the floor of the set. Cool. The other day I wrote about the B Street Theatre taking Around the World in 80 Days to India. Well my assault on Asia continues with the opening of Around the World in 80 Days at Erzurum State Theatre in Erzurum, Turkey. (Before you start yelling that I'm geographically challenged, Turkey is a transcontinental country with an Asian–European boundary. You see? This site is educational as well). First Translation of Around the [...]

Tom Jones to Premiere at Florida Studio Theatre

My new play, Tom Jones, will get its world premiere at the Florida Studio Theatre in Sarasota, FL this spring! I've been waiting for the official press release to come out before I said anything and lo and behold it appeared in the Sarasota Herald Tribune today. I'm thrilled and nervous (my perpetual state of mind, minus the thrilled) to have a new play hit the stage. And I'm very excited that Florida Studio Theatre is doing the world premiere. FST produced Around the [...]

The Clown’s Prayer

*Warning: Today's post has received a 5-star Maudlin rating. The Clown's Prayer Keeps Me On Track There are many days I question if my mid-life career choice to become a writer was a good one. Hell, I question whether my beginning-life career choice to be an actor was a good one. My older sister is a retired physical therapist and my older brother is a mucky muck with Siemen's. And then there's me. I write plays, screenplays and songs. Mostly [...]

Commonweal Theatre to go Around the World

I received a nice email today from the fantastically named Jeremy van Meter, the Communications Manager and a Resident Actor at the Commonweal Theatre in Lanesboro, MN, informing me that they will be producing Around the World in 80 Days this year. Fantastic. But then Jeremy told me the population of Lanesboro, MN. 754. As I posted yesterday, the B Street Theatre is about to take Around the World in 80 Days to India, where they'll perform in Mumbai, a city with [...]

Here Lies Love Returns to the Public Theatre

Here Lies Love, the fantastic musical about Imelda Marcos by David Byrne and Fat Boy Slim, is returning to the Public Theatre starting March 24th for an open-ended run. My tip of the day is get your tickets now! Last year Here Lies Love was the hottest ticket in New York City and for good reason: it's terrific. Here's what the Public Theatre has to say about the show: "Within a pulsating dance club atmosphere, David Byrne and Fatboy Slim deconstruct [...]
