June 2nd - and the Countdown Begins!

Okay, so we may have gotten a little distracted since our last posting that promised to bring you more blog posts. Can you blame us? We only work three day jobs, make our beds, make some coffee, make our lunch, go to work, eat our lunch, get another coffee, call our moms, go to an audition or a rehearsal or a show or a movie or a friend's second 21st birthday party and then try to sleep. Are we complaining? Never.

The Sonnet Slam was a blast. While it was cold and a little bit gray, we still loved hearing Shakespeare being read aloud from the Naumberg Bandshell on April 22nd. It was such a neat way to commemorate the Bard right before his birthday and it allowed each of us to show off our enthusiasm for his work. We read Sonnets 121-127 and it was worth the wait to do so. There were some awesome guys rapping the sonnets. There were little redheaded boys who had memorized their sonnets and brought a charlie brown-esque quality to the event. There were sonnets for lovers, sonnets for pining crushes and sonnets simply admiring beauty. And isn't true beauty enough?

Up next we have our show - The Tempest - on June 2nd at Off-Broadway Players Theater. Shows are at 7pm and 9pm and we are looking to fill up houses of 50 people for each show! It's going to be a great night followed by a reception afterward. We can't wait. For ticket reservations, visit Brown Paper Tickets.

We're thrilled to be debuting our newest Tempest Ladies, Julia Giolzetti and Laura Jernigan, on June 2nd. They have been doing incredible work on the show. We're also thrilled to be bringing a new original movement piece to Act V, which will be a physical venture you won't want to miss.

All in all, things seem to be on the up and up as we move toward the show and invite as many people as possible with excitement and delight. We're realizing more and more who we want our target audience to be and how to go about getting in touch with them. We're launching all kinds of campaigns from mass mailings and email blasts to personal calls and postcards. We're also continually grateful for people like you who loyally follow us on the web wherever we go and support us with your words, thoughts and good energy. Thanks for continuing with us on this ever-expanding journey.

With Love,
