June 2008
theAtrainplays are back on track! Volume XXIII of New York's special brand of theatrical skydiving is being produced on Wednesday, June 25th at New World Stages in New York as a benefit for the Off-Broadway community. The show will consist of two plays and four short musicals written, as always, during the course of a single ride on the subway's A train, and performed fully rehearsed and off book the next day. We've got a great mix of some of our long time writers and performers and new blood as well. I'm really looking forward to it! (ie: the fear hasn't kicked in yet.)
There's already been some press about the show, and here are links to the articles on TheatreMania and Playbill.com. Those of you on Facebook can find an event page here: Volume XXIII
New World Stages is located on 50th Street between Eighth and Ninth Avenues in New York. The show starts at 8:00 pm on June 25th for one night only.
For tickets go to TeleCharge. I hope to see you at the show!
This also coincides with the word we just got the Playscripts Inc. wants to publish a second volume of theAtrainplays! The first volume came out three years ago and has sold well. The plays in that collection, by myself, David Riedy, Tony Pennino, Renee Fleming and Stephen O'Rourke, have been produced a number of places around the US and overseas in England, Germany, Australia and Hong Kong. The new collection will contain six Atrainplays by David Riedy, Stephen O'Rourke, Tim Braun, Gary Garrison, Michael Lazan and Deb Castellano, and it will also feature two short plays, by myself and Erica Silberman, that we wrote when we produced theSTATENISLANDFERRYplays.
Congratulations to all the writers selected by Playscrips for the new volume, and to all the writers, performers, composers, directors and crew who make the shows happen every time we do this!
