Becky's New Car

We started a new tradition last night - the staged reading. We had a great crowd show up for desserts and the staged reading of Steven Dietz's play, Becky's New Car. Everyone loved the presentation, and people can't wait for the next one. I want to thank all the wonderful actors who took part in this, and I also want to thank all of the people who made the wonderful desserts. It was a great night - it created a lot of excitement about the work that this theatre does.

Jonathan Anderson rolls in from New York on Sunday, and we start rehearsals on Monday for the David Sedaris play, The Santaland Diaries. I think there's general agreement that David Sedaris is one of the funniest people on this planet, and this production is going to be very, very funny. You may remember Jonathan from his amazing performance last season in Fully Committed. This guy is a great comic actor. . . or more accurately - he's a great actor with a great sense for comedy.

I have two days to design and build a Santa throne.
