Dustbowl Drama Premieres
DECADE AT A GLANCE
Schedule varies
February 11 - March 7 at 7:30pm.
Stella Adler Studio

Inspired by the 1930’s Dustbowl photographs of Walker Evans and
Dorothea Lange, the Harold Clurman Center for New Works in Movement
and Dance Theatre (MAD) at Stella Adler Studio will present the World
Premiere of DECADE AT A GLANCE. Written and directed by Joan Evans,
this blend of theatrical documentary and folk musical begins previews
February 11 at Stella Adler Studio. Opening is set for February 12. In
March 2010, the production will travel to New Orleans for its
Louisiana Premiere at Michalopoulos Studio, produced by Artist Inc.

DECADE AT A GLANCE is an epic story of a few families in the Dustbowl,
circa 1936, who are uprooted from their farmland by drought, dust
storms and mortgage foreclosure. Making the treacherous journey out
west as migrant workers, these ordinary hard working people -- some
with hopes dashed, and dreams deferred or dissolved -- ultimately join
the union marches. Unfolding like a series of living photographs, the
story, told from the point of view of a Dustbowl survivor, is related
through songs, movement, and interviews preserved from the 1930’s.

Tickets are $18, available at www.TheaterMania.com or

"Duet for Solo Voice"
Th-Sat at 8:00 pm
Sun at 3:00 pm.
January 28 to February 14, 2010
Theater for the New City

Theater for the New City will present a special production of "Duet for Solo Voice" by David Scott Milton, directed by Stanley Allan Sherman and acted by Jonathan Slaff, from January 28 to February 14, 2010. The play is a dark comedy about Leonard Pelican, a paranoid night clerk in a seedy Times Square hotel, circa 1970, who thinks that the Russians are coming...for him! He is pursued throughout the play by his paranoid fantasy: a KGB agent named Vassily Ilianovich Chort. The play, then, is the eccentric whirl of Leonard's entrapment of Chort while the gravelly-voiced Bolshevik is zeroing in for the kill. One actor plays both parts. It's a play of lively absurdity, cruel comedy and pathos, with hilarious chase scenes and madcap physical comedy. The play's website is www.duetforsolovoice.com.

FAT BITCH!
Thursdays at 7:00pm
February 11-25, 2010
Laurie Beechman Theater

Watch your skinny backs Sandra Bernhard, Margaret Cho and John
Leguizamo --ERICA WATSON is coming to claim her crown as Queen of the
theater/standup hybrid show with the New York Premiere of FAT BITCH!
After workshops in NYC and Chicago, this new solo show written and
performed by Watson will run February 11- 25, 2010 at The Laurie
Beechman Theater.

FAT BITCH! is a funny, provocative glimpse at the American “fat and
sassy” black woman stereotype. Plus-sized performer Erica Watson
explores society’s obsession with weight, race and class and how black
women’s bodies have always been subjected to both admiration and
ridicule. Drawing upon iconic images including “Mammy” and “Hottentot
Venus,” Watson illustrates how media images have impacted her
self-esteem as she touches on PETA’s “Save the Whales” campaign aimed
at overweight women, the “war on obesity,” and the controversy
surrounding President Obama’s nomination of a plus-sized black woman
for Surgeon General.

Born and raised in Chicago, Erica Watson is an actor, stand-up
comedian, and film/television director. Currently, she can be seen in
the Oprah Winfrey/Lee Daniels film "Precious." She has also starred in
the feature film "Dirty Laundry." Watson is currently featured in two
Gracie Award-winning commercials for the Oxygen Network called
"Tresstify" and "Kiss & Tell,” as well as the March Madness Comedy
special on MSG-TV. She has appeared on NBC's "Last Comic Standing,"
and was a commentator and pundit for five BET specials including “Top
12 BET Award Show Moments,” “Countdown to 2009: BET Year in Review,”
“The Evolution of Mary J. Blige,” and “The Evolution of Jay-Z”.
Additionally, Watson is a recurring politics and pop culture panelist
on the BETJ talk show "My Two Cents,” director of the reality TV
Series "My Model Looks Better Than Your Model" on the BETJ Network and
a blogger for the Huffington Post.

Tickets are $15, plus $15 food/drink minimum,
available at 212-352-3101 or www.SpinCycleNYC.com.

attention to women's rights and abortion. Performed by The Bats and
directed by Jim Simpson, previews begin February 12th with opening
night slated for February 28th.

GIRLS IN TROUBLE takes on abortion in the sixties, when backrooms in
the wrong part of town offered hope or death, as well as abortion in
the twenty first century. In 2010, has abortion become merely another
form of birth control?

Fred Giacinto's
"Moments and Lemons"
Thursdays through Saturdays at 8:00 pm
Sundays at 3:00 pm.
February 18 to March 7, 2010.
Theater for the New City

Thom Fogarty will direct "Moments and Lemons," the Theater for the New City debut of playwright Fred Giacinto, which will be presented February 18 to March 7 by Theater for the New City, 155 First Avenue, NYC. The play, about the mishaps of an unfortunate man named Casper, is an "essential theater" production for two character actors, one of whom plays Casper at all the stages of his life. The other plays his jail cellmate and all the women in his life. Casper's narrative spans eight decades. In his teenage years, as a straight-A student, he yearns to become a successful lawyer. Running afoul of the law, his life path leads to prison. Rejoining life as an ex-con, he must re-enter a society that he is not quite accustomed to. His path is tangled with misguided detours and poor calls of judgment. The play is a drama of error and recovery. Two-thirds of the play is spoken directly to the audience in storytelling fashion by the two actors, who are portraying the constant turnover of characters with dizzying velocity. Tony King plays Casper from his teen years to his eighties. Jessica Day plays everyone else: seven other characters. There are no props, no set changes and no costume changes. The production relies entirely on the actors' tools: voice, body and imagination; thus the term "essential theater," which has been applied to plays of the Brazilian master clown/dramatist Denise Stoklos.

"[Radiohole] turns out effervescent, anarchic work... cultivates an eccentric acting style and makes familiar text creepily bizarre." -Time Out

Known for its radical and reckless theatricality, avant-garde New York troupe Radiohole's newest work is a star-spangled American meta-melodrama inspired by film director Douglas Sirk's 1950s potboilers and Milton's epic Paradise Lost. Our heroine is an all- American "Eve" who must save her home from an evil-doer while struggling to find fulfillment in a lasting relationship with a supposedly good man who looks like god. Radiohole's newest synthesis of cultural flotsam is sure to be bawdy, silly, possibly transcendent, and a touch disturbed.

The Cell

From February 3 to 21, 2010, Kairos Italy Theater (KIT) and The Cell will present the U.S. premiere of "Tosca e le altre due" (Tosca and The Two Downstairs), a satirical, behind-the-scenes sister-story to Puccini’s "Tosca" as imagined by one of the wittiest and most admired Italian playwright and actresses, Franca Valeri. The piece is directed by Laura Caparrotti, Artistic Director of KIT, and its English translation is by Natasha Lardera. The piece will be staged at The Cell, a new multi-arts facility located at 338 West 23rd Street (between 8th Ave. and 9th Ave.) in Manhattan. The play will be acted by Laura Caparrotti and Marta Mondelli in Italian with English supertitles KIT-Kairos Italy Theater is a rarity: a bilingual Italian-English theater company that presents Italian theatrical works of literary merit. It is named for Kairos, the Greek god of the fleeting moment. The prologue will be acted in voice over by Rocco Sisto. Set design is by Lucretia Moroni. "Tosca" by Puccini is based on a drama by Sardou. In this well-known opera, Mario Cavarodossi, a painter who has concealed a dangerous political prisoner, is being protected by his lover, a celebrated singer named Tosca. Cavarodossi is tortured to reveal the whereabouts of the prisoner to Scarpia, the chief of police, who has promised to save the painter by a mock execution if Tosca will give herself to him. She ultimately agrees, but stabs Scarpia at the last moment. The execution is, however, a real one and in grief, Tosca leaps from a battlement to her death. This year is the 110th anniversary of the opera, which debuted on January 14, 1900. "Tosca e le altre due" by Franca Valeri shares the 19th century setting and events of the opera, but refracts them through two memorable women characters who share them from the outside. The torture's screams and scuffles are overheard from upstairs by the wife of the torturer and the female doorkeeper of Palazzo Farnese in Rome, where the interrogation is taking place. The play is a wry and humorous character study of these two women, outsiders, who are accidentally close to the passions and politics of the story.

English translation by Natasha Lardera.

The award-winning, critically acclaimed Athena Theatre is entering its sixth season, proud to present their first production for the 2010 season in NYC. Pulitzer Prize Winning playwright, Sam Shepard, Obie Award Winning and Tony Award Nominee for his classic American play, True West; centers around the confrontation of two brothers. There is a possibility that these two brothers are different aspects of one personality, or that they are not people but symbols of the American West. True West was first performed at the Magic Theatre in San Francisco, where Shepard was the resident playwright. It had its world premiere there on July 10, 1980. The production later moved to Joseph Papp's The Public Theater in New York City, where it starred Tommy Lee Jones and Peter Boyle.

“Not only is the Alien Comic, a.k.a. Tom Murrin, one of the most visible and active performance artists on the New York club scene today, but he has also been seminal in bringing club-based performance to life.”
---Catherine Bush, L.A. Weekly

“You can’t take your eyes off his chaotic energy. The performances are exhilarating and unsettling, like a walk down Broadway. They’re about the risk of running into drama – possibly coherent, possibly fragmented – as soon as you put your foot out the door.” ---Laurie Stone, Vogue

A pioneer of performance art, Tom Murrin (aka Alien Comic) takes us on a talking tour of his life---and of his travels through avant garde theatre in the 60s, 70s, and early 80s. He was a teenage magician, a Jesuit schoolboy, a Los Angeles trial lawyer, a La Mama playwright in the 60s, a traveling street performer peddling his wares from Seattle to Calcutta, and finally a leader in the performance scene that sprang up in the East Village in the 1980s. He tells wildly entertaining stories of his youth in Los Angeles, where he wore Frank Sinatra’s suit and asked Jane Russell to perform at a pep rally.

Tickets: $20 and $15 (students/seniors).
