In May I will be producing the first ever Dallas Solo Fest. It will feature solo performers from around the country as well as a handful of local artists. I have a Kickstarter Campaign cooking right now to help raise the funds to make the DSF as kick-ass as I know it can be. Click on the widget below and ceck it out. Donate a bit or at the very least, pass it on. Any and all help is appreciated.

At the 2014 Staple! Expo
Jeff from Sensational Adventure Club, Ruth and I shared a table at the Staple! Expo of Independent Media in Austin this past weekend. I had a playwriting workshop to teach, so I didn't make it down until Saturday night (I took the Megabus... $5... not bad).
Sold a bit. Bought a bit. Ruth's homemade hybrid plush-toys: Tarantu-Bears sold the best. My new comin "My Secret Island" sold a few, too.
Ate at P. Terry's and Double Dave's Pizza (two of my Austin favorites). Visited BookPeople and got Austin Kleon's newest book. Had a cigar and a drink called a Bulleitt Mule (bourbon, lime, spicy ginger and club soda) on the back paio of the Spider House. Good time.
We got stuck on the way back to Dallas on Sunday night. Roads super icy. We ended up staying in a Ramada in Hewlitt, Texas (just south of Waco). Great hotel. Much better than the cheap, sketchy crack-house Motel 6 we were at in Austin. Ruth worried and fretted about missing her Monday classes. I finished ROBERTS' ETERNAL GOLDFISH finally! It premieres in less than a week.
Here's some pics in no particular order...

FUN GRIP at Tulsa's Comedy Parlor
Swearingen and I headed off to Oklahoma this past weekend to perform Fun Grip at the two-month old Comedy Parlor in downtown Tulsa. Special thanks to Jason Watts for putting a short article about us in the program for the place. We taught a workshop and performed on our own as well as with the house troupe Comfort Creatures. Visited excellent bar with old-school video games around the corner, great pizza-by-the-slice joint called Jo Mamma's and grabbed some Ballantine whisky (a French whisky I've ben looking for... pretty good stuff) at a neat shop called Whisky Business.

Announcing ROBERTS' ETERNAL GOLDFISH in the 2014 Out of the Loop
In ROBERTS' ETERNAL GOLDFISH, a new solo show by Brad McEntire, the audience comes face to face with Mr. Charlemagne J. Roberts. Roberts has a huge problem with the world. In particular he dislikes people. One day he becomes the unlikely custodian of a magical goldfish and Mr. Roberts' misanthropic view of the world is seriously challenged.
