Bike Soccer Jamboree has moved!

The brave little podcast that I co-host and co-produce Bike Soccer Jamboree has moved. Because Posterous was bought out and is closing (where we have been for almost a year), we had to find a new home. Now you can find the episodes on the pop culture and arts website Sensational Adventure Club.

All the old episodes are posted as well as quite a few new ones. Jeff Hernandez has taken over the management of the episodes and fashioned new intro music (which sounds nothing whatsoever like the music from the popular Nerdist podcast). He has also decided not to edit or curate the episodes any longer, so what you get is the raw ummms and uhhhs and weird awkward pauses that make the episodes so very enjoyable to listen to. I am still coming to grips with these new changes, but since my laptops were stolen last month, I am sans the technology to do anything about it currently.

Anyway, check out the new home of Bike Soccer Jamboree. There are some other neat articles, comics, and related media on Sensational Adventure Club as well. That site, itself, has just been launched and will evolve and grow more and more as time progresses.

Thanks for listening. Check out the Bike Soccer Jamboree Podcasts HERE.

CAMP GIRLS reading

The cast of the reading of CAMP GIRLS AND THE GHOST MONK at Nouveau 47 Theatre, Dallas TX

Last night Audacity Theatre Lab held a developmental reading of Matt Lyle's play CAMP GIRLS AND THE GHOST MONK. Small but really engaged audience. Actors did a swell job. I produced, directed and read for it. We taped it to send to the playwright.

Viva la New Theatre!

CARTER is on the way...

CARTER STUBBS TAKES FLIGHT in rehearsal

Just a week until the world gets to experience CARTER STUBBS TAKES FLIGHT. Info HERE.

Inspired by Tim Crouch

I just happened upon UK-based theatre artist Tim Crouch online. He creates in a way similar to my own and I freakin' love his website. I particularly love his bio. It is as if he articulated what I do (or am striving to do) in the best, most simplified way:

Tim Crouch is a UK theatre artist based in Brighton. He writes plays, performs in them and takes responsibility for their production. He started to make his own work in 2003. Before then he was an actor.

Tim works with a number of associates and collaborators to produce his writing. There isn’t a company structure; things and people are brought together when they are needed. The starting process has always been a text written by Crouch. Early work was made in response to a self-generated impulse to tell a story or explore a form. This impulse is still the first motivation but, lately, it’s become slightly more formalized through the involvement of various commissioning theatres and organizations.

The world and the web are big places. We all pull from everywhere. It is just inspiring and refreshing when one comes across, not only a kindred spirit, but someone who pegs your own modus operandi so well (He has a very "odd" and idiosyncratic perspective in his works. He does one man shows. He has a play about Caliban. He even has a pen and ink drawing of himself on his landing page... so many parallels...). We differ, of course. For example, he incorporates multimedia and some of his pieces are unapologetically provocative. Still, it is like finding a weird doppleganger of yourself as an artist halfway around the world... and being impressed with him.

CAMP GIRLS reading

Summer 1991. Sheila and Allie meet at Camp Gentile. They would seem to be BFFs forever if it wasn't for some strange goings-on this summer. Like, what's with that deranged camp director Ms. Kagle, or those ghost sightings, or that creepy cool guy Johnny Castle, and definitely that ancient, magical amulet? Seriously, what's with that stuff?

I'm pleased to get my little theatre company, Audacity Theatre Lab, back up and cooking after nearly half a year of nothing. This is but the first of a whole slew of good things coming down the chute. I am also pleased to return to the weird, warped little world of playwright Matt Lyle (author of HELLO HUMAN FEMALE). He is collaborating with ATL's Jeff Swearingen and our wonderful colleague in Austin, Chris Humphrey, this time. The result will be a quasi-musical mess of awesomeness called CAMP GIRLS AND THE GHOST MONK.

We're doing a reading - sans the music stuff - at Nouveau 47 Theatre, April 8, 2013 at 7:30 PM. More details coming soon.

At Nouveau 47 Theatre in the historic Magnolia Lounge (Margo Jones Building), Fair Park, 1121 First Ave., Dallas, TX 75210. More info HERE.
