stage a play

I went to see Jollyship the Whiz-Bang at the Ars Nova Theater and thought, “I could have done that!”

Then a friend of mine got her musical into the NYC Fringe Festival. When I congratulated her, I told her that I’d like to put on a stage show. Her advice was don’t do it. It’s too much work and lost sleep. That made me feel better. I still want to do this, but I’m no longer so envious.

I have an idea for the subject and the form but what an undertaking. I suppose I could write the script in the cracks between everything else that I have going on.

The theater didn’t go for our idea for a stage show. That’s okay, because another idea that my wife submitted is going into production there in April

The wife and I submitted a proposal to the Magnet Theater for our stage show. We’re shooting for a spot in the spring line up.

I’ve acted on stage before, many times in performance art pieces and once in a short comedic play.

Now I would like to do a funny, two-person show with my wife. We’ve performed short comedy segments together, and we always thought that if we could string enough of them together, we would have a stage show.

Most of our act is singing. So far we have two songs in the can, with a couple more in the pipeline.
