I don't even understand 50 years, but it's an excellent bookend.

To be born At A Party
I spoke to your mother again, the one who wants to go from 2 actors to 3. For a reading series.
Yes.
Possible.
Re figuring in my mind as we speak.
I speak.
Because you are unborn.

We do not understand fame
My first thought was of a great fall, perhaps inevitable, from Rock Star to teacher. But maybe the reverse is true.
Maybe we start as fame hungry and become teachers.
Wisdom rather than blinding love and decent rhythm.

An Alternate Version: THE TRUTH IN MY HEAD
So the deep inspiration for this play, Comic Con, has also inspired me in different directions.
In addition to a factual, non-fiction book, there is another play that is awakening. Especially these past few weeks.
Another 2 hander, with 2 more people possibly in the background, a DEEPER discussion.
The truth in my head is not the same as the truth in your head.

Best New Word of the Past Few Years
(And no, I haven't done the revisions yet!)
I have found "Baltimore Waltz" by Paula Vogel. Which I've owned for 20 years, at least!
Comic-Con
Everything today is a con.

TRU Directors/Writers Lab November 2015
COMICCON was workshopped in a session.
It was WELL worth it!!
I got to talk through my hopes & dreams for the show with Mary McGinley and she was able to give me director-type feedback on some of the characters.
I've been thinking about re-writing it as a cast of 2 or 3 or 12. She got VERY excited about the idea of having the 2 main characters and having a 3rd actor play all the others, which I just thought was MARVELOUS!
TRU itself has been around for 24 years and is one of the BEST ways to get info about the NYC theater community. In addition to this lab, they also do a whole variety of other workshops and monthly sessions with different topics/speakers for each one. Join them if you haven't yet!!
