June + July Update

6/17/2018

IN SUMMARY:

I attended the TONY awards!
I also attended the post TONY gala (mentioned in vogue) and whole bunch of after-parties, including the one described as “the party you didn’t get invited to” by the New York Times.
It was an incredibly fun and wild experience! I’m encouraged by the joy and positivity that surrounds the culmination of the Broadway season.

Christopher Erlendson and I are revising Magic the Play with full efforts.
Every 3 weeks, we present the revised content to a knowledgeable and discerning audience which helps us make better creative decisions. (If you want to attend one of these intimate workshops, drop me a line.)
As lead producer of Magic the Play, I’ve hired Aaron Pratt and Erin Wagner-Brooks from Good People Management Group to general manage the company

I’ve also hired Lee Feldshon as attorney for the company.
Aaron and Erin from GPMG and Lee are the best at what they do. Their involvement with Magic is encouraging! (If you are excited by this and want to get involved in the producing side of this show, let me know.)

Some Lovers – the new musical which I’m working under Cody Lassen for – by Burt Bacharach (Promises Promises) and Steven Sater (Spring Awakening) opened to an enthusiastic audience in Glens Falls at the Adirondack Theater Festival.
Directed by Josh Rhodes (Brightstar) Some Lovers blends time, love, and regrets shadowed by the ghosts of our past in a soaring and poetic musical that tugs at your heart. I’m excited to see where the show goes next!
Jung & Crazy, a new comedy which Robert Keller and I co-wrote had an industry staged reading late May! Directed by Christopher Erlendson, the reading was an overall success with some great feedback and interest!
In fact, Jung & Crazy is having another presentation in LA later this month! Let's hope the show resonated with the people who can move it forward

UPCOMING EVENTS:

Cold Reading Series at the Artist Co-Op. 7:30PM Tuesday July 11th. FB event here.
I’ll be seeing the Play that Goes Wrong with a whole bunch of friends at 7:00PM on July 3rd! Want to join? Tickets will be about $40. If yes, drop me a line.

Congratulations Kelly on graduating with your Masters degree in Flute Performance from Manhattan School of Music!
