Flux Theatre Ensemble

To begin, I apologize for the title of this blog post. I've been staring at a computer for so long when I go to the bathroom I click on the doorknob.

To continue, it's time for some shout-outs for deserving plays getting published!

James Comtois' play, Infectious Opportunity, is being published by the good folks at Original Works. You might remember this play from our series, Exploding Moments; and we're thrilled for James and his deserving play.

Speaking of published plays, have you picked up your copies of the Angel Eaters Trilogy yet?

And I am not even going to ask if you've purchased your copies of Out of Time & Place, which features plays from past Flux collaborators like Crystal Skillman, Bekah Brunstetter, Andrea Thome, and Christine Evans; of course you have.

I know what you're thinking: that's all well and good, but what about the New York Theater Review and it's impending publication of The Lesser Seductions Of History and Erin Browne's Flux-developed play Trying? One word, one number: October 15th. That's when you can see the cast from Lesser Seductions read from the play as part of the book launch at New Georges' The Room. See you there? Read the full story

Playwright Christine Evans' recent productions include the award-winningTrojan Barbie at the A.R.T. (2009) and Weightless at Perishable Theatre. She is an Australian Fulbright Alumna, lives in Providence, RI and was brought up by secular ex-Catholics in three different countries.

Thanks for everyone who made part two such fun! Our ForePlay series Divine Reckonings continues this Monday the 19th at the Irondale Center, 85 South Oxford St in Brooklyn, at 7:30PM. Will you be there? (And have you nabbed your $11 discount tix for opening weekend of Jacob's House with the code MANIFEST?)

Please note, Zack Robidas has stepped in as a pinch hitting playwright for Leila Buck, who had to drop out. Zack acted in the 1st round (and in Pretty Theft and 8 Little Antichrists), so we're psyched he's writing for us!
