Of More Pages and Pizza With Mashed Potatoes

It’s still raining.  But the exterminator came and our friends are gone.

It sounds like rehearsal was very productive for Froggy.  Matt Morrow and Jen said that they’re working in projections and figuring out foley sound.  Everyone’s jumped enthusiastically into getting the piece on its feet.   Laura has two scenes for Act II of January Joiner – and May and Laura informed us that during today’s rehearsal Andrew (who is playing a fitness instructor in January Joiner) came up with a character-appropriate fitness regime.  We wish we had been there — it would have been nice to have gotten some exercise.  Laura’s a Writing Machine.  She’s cranking out those new pages.  We’ve told her that we want January Joiner to be four acts.

2010 playwriting fellow Eli Clark joined us.  She’ll be working on her play Dead Children in preparation for a private closed reading that we’re doing of Dead Children next Monday (the amazing Annie Kauffman is directing the reading).

Off to dinner at Bru Bar, where we all shared a truly tasty concoction — pizza with mashed potatoes.  I know: It doesn’t really sound appealing.  Trust us, though.  It is.
