CapFringe 2008 Alert! HOW HEFNERIAN! Other stuff!

[thehefner]

Hey everyone! CapFringe is less than two weeks away! WOOOOO!!!

For my part, I'll be performing my brand-new solo show, THE HEFNER MONOLOGUES: HOW HEFNERIAN at the DC Arts Center on the following dates:

DC Arts Center
2438 18th Street NW 20009

Friday, 7/11/08, 10:00pm
Saturday, 7/12/08, 10:30pm
Sunday, 7/13/08, 3:30pm
Saturday, 7/19/07, 3:00pm
Sunday, 7/20/08, 7:00pm
Thursday, 7/24/08, 8:30pm

It's gonna be rough, I can tell you that. I really wish I had started working on this months ago instead of the aborted "family" show. So this will essentially be a hardcore workshop for me, but I'm proud of it nonetheless. It's a smaller show than the previous HEFNER MONOLOGUES, but I think it's a more mature work, a real step up.

It's totally stand-alone, but it carries many themes and ideas from the first, so there's something here for HefHeads old and new!

So definitely come! I didn't get an ad put in the guide this year, so as always, your support is HUGELY needed and appreciated! Especially at DCAC, a larger venue than last year. And there will be air conditioning! Oh yes, there WILL be air conditioning!

But wait, THE HEFNER MONOLOGUES: HOW HEFNERIAN is far from the only show you've gotta see!

The great rcpfiles has taken the liberty to compile ALL of Fringe shows being performed by Rudes alumni These shows include:

CORIOLANUS: directed by fiveseconddelay, featuring an all-star cast of Rude Mechanicals, including wondermojz, torberg, aeonata, tompurdue, lialife, angstacular, muzikmaker21, recalcitranttoy, and lonebear!

BARGAIN BASEMENT GAME SHOW: rcpfiles, ernmissprism, and muzikmaker21.

ICONICITY: tyhallmark

THE GIRL IN THE IRON MASK: cavenessity

EURIPIDES' THE BACCHAE

YEARNING TO ITCH: WHAT WAITRESSES WILL DO FOR TIPS: lialife

THOUSANDS OF YEARS-- ROME

THE OBJECT OF MY OBSESSION: cisic

THREE TIMES A LADY



And if I may submit one more, featuring both a Rude AND a whole slew of beloved WAC alums:

THE FRUSTRATIONS OF STOKER PRATT (performed at Flashpoint Mead Theatre Lab): the latest offering from Grandmaster of Funk Liam Daley, featuring ANTONY & CLEOPATRA's fishymcb. And, um... what other LJers are in this?

So that's it! Now I need to go back to memorizing and rehearsing HOW HEFNERIAN. Hopefully I won't wither and die before my (rough-ass but scrappy) WORLD PREMIERE on the 11th! See you at the Fringe, folks!

I'll be on the wrong side of the lights.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Woot woot indeed!

Me, I'm gonna hold off planning which shows I'll see when till we get a little closer. But rest assured, I'll be there for yours, of course!

[findingjuliet.livejournal.com]

[recalcitranttoy.livejournal.com]

Hey! What about ME? :-)

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Which one which one?

[recalcitranttoy.livejournal.com]

I play the all important Citizen 1 in Coriolanus :-) Without me, who would there be to throw corn at? Heh heh. Yes, I know it's a teeny part, but it's MINE! MINE MINE MINE!

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Done and done!

re: icon...

Please stay still as we calibrate THE NOZZLE

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Do not look away from (beat) THE NOZZLE.

:)

I looooove that show.

I'll be out of town for another 2 weeks as of this sunday, so we should catch up this week.

I'll have to catch the new Hefner Monologues at the end, maybe the last one.

Just wanted to fill you in.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Rock, totally cool, just as long as you check it out period! By that point, the show should hopefully be more polished anyway.

[spacechild.livejournal.com]

You free Thursday night to get together?

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

I might be. Chances point to "yes" currently. Let's say yes and I'll let you know if something comes up. If I can get more rehearsal time in, that's gonna need to be the priority at this point.

However, I have the SINESTRO CORPS trilogy finally in hardcover (and I've gone through and inserted many notes so that you can read it in the right order... damn idiots messed everything up, putting all the prelude and tie-in stuff in a SEPARATE book, rather than printing it in the order they were published and read!), so I definitely want to get those to you!

[spacechild.livejournal.com]

Awesome.

I have been waiting so long to read those!

Also, I now own and have read Brubaker's run on Capt America through to Death of Capt America volume 1. I also have the latest Walking Dead trade, and the final chapter of Y the Last Man.

And a bunch more New Avengers.

It was a good birthday for my collection. Sad that you weren't there on Saturday, but it WAS hot as balls.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Yeah, fuck rehearsal, we need to get together Thursday and I'll buy the booze.

[spacechild.livejournal.com]

I'll bring the liver, and you pickle it.
