Of First Previews and Some Nice News
Jack’s Precious Moment starts previews in exactly a week. Â We load-in on Monday and start performances on Friday — a shortened tech, for sure. Â Don’t have your ticket yet? Â What are you waiting for.
In the meantime:
Dan LeFranc received the 2010 New York Times Outstanding Playwright Award for Sixty Miles to Silver Lake. Â We were there to watch him shake Arthur Sulzberger’s hand and be interviewed for 15-20 minutes at the New York Times Center. Â It was really nice. Â And it was great to have a mini-Sixty Miles reunion and see Dane DeHaan, Joe Adams, Sarah Benson, Tania Camargo and Dane Laffrey. Â But we missed Annie Kauffman, because she’s off directing her fancy-schmancy play.
Go, Heidi Schreck. Â 2009 P73 Playwriting Fellow Heidi Schreck (who is also uhm an actor – heh) is getting the Theatre World Award. Â Also! Â There Are No More Big Secrets – which she wrote while being the fellow – is having a reading at MTC’s 7@7 on May 24 directed by none-other-than Kip Fagan. Â (We won’t be able to be there b/c we have a reading that same night for Sam Marks’s new play directed by Sam Gold.) Â And, by the way, congrats to one of our other favorite actors: Keira Keely (who also has done readings of There Are No More Big Secrets) for her Theatre World Award.
