So I just got off the phone with Turtle Lane about a couple of things and got this random nugget, "If you're ever interested in stage managing let me know."
So far I've acted in their shows, expressed interest in directing there, and house managed.
I have no idea how that translated for the general manager into me stagemanaging Guys and Dolls - especially when the director already asked me to audition, but hey. It's flattering, I guess. Not bad money, either. If anyone who reads this is qualified and interested, let me know and I'll put you in touch.
Liaisons continues to rock my world. There are still tickets for this weekend, so CALL NOW. You won't be sorry.
In other news, I seriously need to find and propose something for next season at Hovey. By Tuesday. Last year I was really torn between Stoppard's The Real Thing and Liaisons - should I go back to that? Other possible options: An Ideal Husband by Oscar Wilde, Arms and the Man by G.B. Shaw, or The Hollow by Agatha Christie, all things I've suggested other places. But none of them really set my world on fire. I'm stuck. I would really like to find a good, fun comedy, as Hovey always gets lots of 'serious' plays and they are usually looking for submissions to balance all the angst. (Take a look at this season - Liaisons is at the light end of the scale for them.) But nothing comes to mind. I guess comedy really is hard.
Suggestions welcome. Keep in mind that Hovey's a basement. Liaisons worked, but it took a lot of work to get it there.
