8 plays...
4 rehearsals...
35 minutes of tech...
1 night only
It's Company One's tri-annual SLAMBoston coming up this Tuesday at the BCA, and I'm in it!
After last years sold out SLAMs, Company One is bringing the Theatre Slam back to Boston! Combining the wild excitement of poetry slams with live theater, SLAMBoston is a unique ten-minute play festival developed and made popular by Another Country Productions. Eight plays compete for a cash prize in a night of raucous audience participation and celebration of diversity in American theatre.
The play I'm in (In Bloom) is going LAST, which we're really excited about (although it means a late, late tech on Monday night), but we get to close the show. The play is written by a local playwright and and it's possibly the funniest part I've ever played (after playing rape victims, homophobes, and suicidal people, I suppose playing an alcoholic is pretty damn funny). :-)
The SLAM usually sells out, because it's one night only, so if you would like to go, please buy tickets in advance
here. Please note that the show is at 7:30, not 8. We need your vote to win the cash prize (which will probably barely cover the cost of props), but still, it would be pretty cool to win. :-)
