Blog interview about Bike America in Atlanta. Check it out! Next stop Bike America in NYC with Ma-Yi theater coming Sept 2013.
Hello NYC family. Please see my work?
Sunday 12/9 @ 3pm - Reading of a brand new play! Collin with Louis Liberatore, Grantham Coleman, Jason Liebman, and Ali Ahn a Ma-Yi Labfest reading the Bruce Mitchell Room 520 Eighth Avenue, 3rd Floor Free! David is a successful New York casting director and Collin is a hot young star on the rise. The attraction is chemical, but the combination is potentially deadly. A love letter to the theater where the highs and lows of romance echo the highs and lows of a life on the stage. Thursday 12/13 @ 7pm - Reading of Stockton, winner of the Aracaworks Graduate Playwriting Award! Stockton directed by Lucie Tiberghien an AracaWorks reading The Studio at Theater 511 511 West 54th Street (betw 10th and 11th Ave) Free! Reserve seating at www.aracaworks.com Meet Fitz, EB, and Marie: three of the most fun, least motivated girls you'll ever see. They live in Stockton, California: birthplace of the art world darling Kara Walker and the graffitist Neck Face, home to an ok-but-not-great farmers’ market, and also the largest city in America ever to declare bankruptcy. Watch Fitz being haunted by Kara Walker’s maniacal talking silhouette! Watch EB reform the Stockton school system! Watch Marie follow Neck Face down a trail of graffiti that ends in wet paint… Sunday 12/16 @ 8pm - Orphans of the Nightingale of the Desert: a Bollywood Spectacular... a benefit for Ma-Yi Writers Lab Orphans of the Nightingale of the Desert: a Bollywood Spectacular A benefit performance for the Ma-Yi Writers Lab One night only! Sunday 12/16 at 8pm at The Alice Griffin Jewel Box Theatre The Pershing Square Signature Center 480 W. 42nd Street Ma-Yi Writers Lab, the largest collective of Asian-American playwrights in the country, brings you their collective response to the recent casting controversies over The Nightingale, Orphan of Zhao, Pippin: a Bollywood Spectacular, and Priscilla Queen of the Desert. (If you don't know, look 'em up!) This will be a benefit performance to support Lab activities, performed in association with several members from AAPAC (Asian-American Performers Action Coalition). Where some have channeled their energies into panels, or letters, or blogs, the Lab is responding the best way they know how: an evening of minimally-rehearsed on-book satirical shorts. And we're doing it on the set of Golden Child, written by none other than the Godfather of Asian-American Theater David Henry Hwang. With special thanks to David Henry Hwang and the Pershing Square Signature Center... featuring plays and opinions in no way associated with David Henry Hwang or the Pershing Square Signature Center. Tickets are just $5! (Or donate more if you value what we do.) https://web.ovationtix.com/trs/pr/919589 BIKE AMERICA (a Juilliard workshop) by Mike Lew directed by Hal Brooks featuring: Fiona Cheung, Tom Datnow, Adam Farabee, Michael Shaw, Jeremy Tardy, Natasha Warner, & Kerry Warren Penny is damaged. She doesn’t know who she is or her place in the world. So she drops everything to go on a cross-country bike trip from Boston to Santa Barbara. Along the way she befriends a crew of fellow adventurers, from the lesbian couple who’ve decided to get a marriage license in every state to the mysterious Man with the Van who transports their belongings. Set in iconic towns from the deep North down to the deep South (and the highways between), Bike America captures the restlessness of a Millennial generation that will go to any length to find a place that always seems just out of reach. Winner of the Kendeda Grad Playwriting Competition! World premiere upcoming at the Alliance Theater in Atlanta... Performances: Fri 9/7 @ 8pm Sat 9/8 @ 9pm Sun 9/9 @ 2pm & 7pm Juilliard. 144 West 66th St betw. Broadway and Amsterdam. Room 301. For reservations, call 212-799-5000 x 654 and leave a message.
