So a good deal of other theatre blog-type-people will be involved in the PRELUDE 06 events of the next two days at CUNY. I cannot attend, much as I'd like to, primarily as I'm in rehearsal for Temptation tomorrow morning and Sunday evening at The Brick, but also because I'll also be continuing to spend the rest of those days at The Brick (and possibly other W-Burg locales) enjoying the New WPA Free Fest being put on by The New WPA (that is, Williamsburg Performance Association).
I'm in rehearsal from 9 am to 12 noon tomorrow, ugh, but then there's a whole damn day of cool stuff at The Brick:
1.30 - 2.00 pm Chris Harcum performs Some Kind of Pink Breakfast
2.15 - 3.00 pm Debby Schwartz plays n sings fer you
3.15 - 3.45 pm Lisa Ferber's new play An Evening with Molly Hadafew
4.00 - 4.30 pm Deenie Nast
4.45 - 5.15 pm Cousin Hubie
5.30 - 6.00 pm Eric Davis
6.15 - 6.45 pm Tom X. Chao and Erin Leahy perform "Lunch in Los Angeles" from Freak Out Under the Apple Tree
7.00 - 7.30 pm The Bitter Poet
7.45 - 8.15 pm Trav S.D.
8.30 - 9.15 pm Michele Carlo's It Came from New York
9.30 - 10.00 pm The Curse of Cursed Mountain
10.00 - ??? pm Oddball Mini-Filmfest (very likely including a cult favorite musical in black-and-white about the Sixth Dimension)
And it's FREE! There's lots going on in other Williamsburg spaces, too -- if you can't read the map/guide I linked to above, I have it on good authority they'll be handed out at Williamsburg subway stations all day.
And there's even more (and still FREE) on Sunday, including a reading of Plato's Symposium as a "radio theatre extravaganza" at The Brick from 2.00 - 5.00 pm. I will be participating as a reader in that one, apparently . . .
Monday night, The Brick will be the locale for the New York Theatre Review fundraiser, which I hope to also attend (this one costs $20, and I don't know if I have the cash right now, but if you do, it's a good cause, and you SHOULD GO) -- many of the familiar theatre-blog-type-people will be attending this one, too. I hope to see some familiar faces there.
