you’re hired!

I’m sure y’all read the NY Times article on Theater > News & Features > The Broadway Producer Baby” href=”http://www.nytimes.com/2004/07/04/theater/newsandfeatures/04WEBE.html”>The New York Times > Theater >Arielle Tepper and the Summer Play Festival. It seems kinda like The Apprentice for playwrights. Any suggestions on which ones to actually go see? Any behind-the-scenes gossip?
At least its more manageable than the Fringe Festival and the quality will probably be a lot better across the board.

  1. I for one want to know who the hell she had to, um, service to get THREE photos in the article.

    I have read/heard incarnations of two of the shows, and I think they are both very special:

    Anatomy 1968 is a straight play, quite touching, a look at the beginning of a marriage, and then a flash forward a buncha years thing with a younger generation — all takes place at the Hong Kong Hilton

    Prozac and the Platypus — a really unusual story I will not even try to summarize, but on top of being an original premise, it has the potential to get you right in the ribs — while having pretty good music too!

    I do highly recommend both of these. I cannot recommend the others simply because I know nothing about them, but from the fact that the Tepper crew chose both of these, I think any of the choices will provide for a memorable eve.
