Just Kids: A Dispatch from Manhattan

December 26, 2010 By Matt Leave a Comment

Sean Lewis & director Matt Slaybaugh took a couple of days out of the holiday season to meet-up in New York City and get down to brass tacks about finishing a production draft of the Just Kids script.

Near the end of their second long day of work, they took a few minutes to talk about the show.

Here’s a video with some excerpts from the conversation. In it Sean talks about the importance of doing personal work, and the difficulties of involving Rick, his biological father, in the show.

Artie Speaks: The Reasons for Our Seasonal Show

December 3, 2010 By Matt Leave a Comment

In a new blog post, titled “It’s About Us, Here, Now,” Artie talks at length about how and why we’re presenting our version of A Christmas Carol next week.

Dickens cared for his British society, but — for us, here, now — that’s merely a quaint moment in history.

When we hear the title, “A Christmas Carol,” we smilingly recall the characters — Scrooge, Cratchit, and Tiny Tim — and the story of the three ghosts. But the story is stuck in its time: coated with 150+ years of literary dust and bestowed our deserving love and respect.

But Dickens didn’t write A Christmas Carol to be an old story. He wrote it to change England.

So, Can We Use It To Change Us, Here, Now?

Read the whole story here.

There’s an AVLT App for that.

November 15, 2010 By Matt Leave a Comment

Today, with the help of our good friends at MobileXpeditions, we’ve released the beta version of our very own AVLT iPhone/iPad/iPod app.

Think if it as a digital program. For those who want to dig deeper into our shows, this’ll give them the chance to interact with us in a new and exciting way. Of course, we’ll be updating it for each new show, so keep an eye out for new content.

As we mentioned, this is just a beta release, we’re still working out some kinks, so feel free to send us some feedback.

Dispatch Reviews R3: savage, dark, lurid, hilarious, stunning …

November 12, 2010 By Matt Leave a Comment

A few excerpts from Michael Grossberg’s review of The Life and Death of Richard the Third (for the Columbus Dispatch.)

What savage drama, what dark humor and what lurid beauty … Start with the compelling performances of the consistently strong ensemble, led by (Chameleonic, snaky, spidery, foxy…) Ian Short in the conniving title role … let yourself be seduced by the striking movements … Did I mention the hilarious puppetry?

Also stunning: Dave Wallingford’s sound design, which blends in excerpts from Phillip Glass; Darin Keesing’s dramatic lighting; and Michelle Whited’s colorful costumes.

The clarity of their diction, male and female performers alike, pays tribute to the abiding richness of Shakespeare’s prose under Slaybaugh’s direction.

What are you waiting for? Go get some tickets?
