This May & June,
Spontaneous Shakespeare Players (“SSP”)
are back to bring the Bard's The Comedy of
Errors & Hamlet to New York City—the
way Shakespeare’s own players performed
it. The Comedy of Errors & Hamlet marks
the fifth annual FREE Shakespeare productions
that SSP has shared with New York audiences
at Central Park's Summit Rock and the first
year of being produced by Mercia Entertainment.
Dedicated to bringing the Shakespeare of olden
times to modern audiences, SSP uses original
Elizabethan performance techniques—involving
audience interaction, cue scripts-in-hand
and LOTS of spontaneity—to bring Shakespeare's
words to life in a thrilling and hilarious
way. This is seriously entertaining Shakespeare,
the like of which you have never seen before,
performed by actors trained in Original Practice
rehearsal techniques. The Comedy of Errors
& Hamlet are performed outdoors for FREE
so pack your picnic blankets and Central Park
friendly lunches. It’s fun for the whole
family! William Shakespeare's The Comedy of
Errors is a riotously funny tale of two pairs
of twins who, after having been separated
at birth, are reunited once again thanks to
a series of cases of mistaken identity. Hamlet
is a remarkable revenge story that demonstrates
the difficulty of knowing truth, innocence,
guilt, sanity, insanity, and the real motives
behind each character. Watch 13 bold and magnificent
actors perform the First Folio Style with
cue scripts in hand, all while interacting
and entertaining the audience in ways you
could never have imagined. This ain't your
mama's Shakespeare!
FREE to the public. For

At its core, Gym Shorts:
The Show is about relationships. The kind
of relationships we’ve all experienced
in our own lives, and can all identify with.
The agony of betrayal. The ecstasy of true
companionship. The struggle to be accepted
for who you are. All the great dramas and
comedies of the ages have hinged on these
profound human experiences. So, what is it
that makes this rendition new and unique?
And, of course, hilarious? The one place that
can hold this amount of human triumph and
tragedy, the blood, sweat and tears that make
up the human experience (particularly the
sweat): THE GYM!!! Come see the strength and
resilience of these flawed warriors stretched
out to their breaking point. Gym Shorts: The
Show. These guys have issues they need to
workout.

Israel Horovitz's
LINE
The Longest Running Off-Off Broadway Play
Fridays and Saturdays at 9:30pm*
13th Street Repertory Theater
Israel Horovitz’s
LINE, the longest running Off-Off Broadway
show, now enters its 37th year at the 13th
Street Repertory Theater. For the past three
months, a new cast and crew have been hard
at work, revitalizing this NY stage classic.
LINE is a dark, existential comedy that explores
humanity’s constant desire and struggle
to be in first place. Stage and screen legends
Chaz Palminteri, Richard Dreyfuss, and John
Cazale have all stood in LINE during the show’s
historic run. In 1974, after LINE’s
run Off-Broadway, Edith O’Hara (Artistic
Director of 13th Street Theater) worked closely
with the playwright to further develop the
play and create a production specifically
for 13th Street Rep. Now, almost 40 years
later, working with Mrs O’Hara, director
Frank Bologna envisions something fresh and
daring. “I wanted to make sure to honor
Israel and Edith’s original version
of LINE that made it a success back in the
‘70’s, but with a focus on realism,
and avoiding the idea of caricature. My actors
have made that possible.”
*Please note, LINE plays
continuously in rep with 2 casts, Friday and
Saturday nights. The new, younger cast performs
in a limited engagement every SATURDAY night.

Theater for the New
City (Crystal Field, Executive Director) will
present the world premiere of Eduardo Machado’s
play Mariquitas, directed by Michael Domitrovich,
beginning April 27th and continuing through
May 19th only. Opening Night is set for Sunday
May 5th (7pm). Directed By Michael Domitrovich
Set in a gay-friendly bed and breakfast in
Old Havana, Mariquitas focuses on a group
of Cuban jineteros (hustlers) and their older
European clients as they satisfy the desires
of their bodies, minds, and souls in a country
with limited resources. In the last 5 years,
LGBT Cubans have experienced unprecedented
freedom of expression due to the support of
sexologist, psychologist, and politician Mariela
Castro Espin. Still, the country’s history
of marginalizing, persecuting and interring
homosexuals makes faith in this new period
of growth tentative at best. Mariquitas uses
the struggles of a specific slice of contemporary
Cuban life to illuminate a larger historical
dynamic – the continued tradition of
cultural and sexual imperialism between Cuba
and its former colonizers.

Festival
Seeks Short Subject Submissions
DEADLINE: ONGOING
The Midtown International
Theatre Festival (MITF) continues to seek
Short Subject submissions for its fourteenth

4, 2013. Instead of a traditional deadline
for submissions (long past), the search for
short plays is ongoing.
In order for a show to qualify
for the Short Subjects division it must be
a one-act, between 30 and 60 minutes, and
non-union. There is no application fee for
Short Subjects submissions. If selected, there
is a participation fee of $100, which entitles
the show to inexpensive rehearsal space, free
insurance, and free external storage space
(if available).
Application forms
for the Midtown International Theatre Festival
are available online at www.MidtownFestival.org
(see the Festival Manual, “Application
Process”). Applications must be completed
online. Scripts must be sent by e-mail, participation
fees by PayPal or snail mail. There’s
no deadline for the remaining Short Subjects,
but eventually Mr. Chatterton will either
run out of time or out of space for more plays
in the Festival, and it will be time to plan
the next short thing.

9, 2011 to unanimous rave reviews, led by
David Cote of Time Out and New York 1 News
who said, “Pungent, punchy and raunchy,
with a sheepish chorus to boot, the consummately
silly SILENCE! will leave you stuffed and
wanting mutton more.” The show immediately
became a sold-out smash hit and was just selected
by Time Magazine as one of the year’s
Top 10 Plays and Musicals along with such
lofty company as The Book of Mormon and War
Horse.

an eight-week limited engagement, the show’s

The Musical recently celebrated its 100th
New York performance.

now able to enjoy the critically acclaimed
score, including such song selections as “If
I Could Smell Her C---” and “Put
the F--king Lotion in the Basket.”
In the Academy Award-winning
film The Silence of the Lambs, rookie FBI
agent Clarice Starling matches wits with the
brilliant but insane cannibal, Dr. Hannibal
Lecter, to catch the serial killer known only
as Buffalo Bill. Clarice must face her own
demons and race the clock to unlock Lecter’s
clues before another innocent girl is killed
and skinned by Bill. It’s a hair-raising
thriller that’s kept countless millions
on the edge of their seats and permeated the
pop lexicon with delightfully creepy quotes
like “I ate his liver with some fava
beans and a nice Chianti” and of course
“It places the lotion in the basket.”
And now, at last, this delicate symphony of
suspense has been turned on its ear and retold
in the only way it an be – as a musical.
A singing chorus of floppy eared lambs narrates
the action; Buffalo Bill gleefully dances
a hoedown while kidnapping hapless Catherine
Martin; and even Dr. Lecter, scary as ever,
sings about the life he’d like to lead
someday outside the prison walls.
The running time
is 89 minutes with no intermission. Tickets
are $25 - $79 and are available by calling
212-352-3101 or through www.SilenceTheMusical.com.

The life of the extraordinary scientist, Nikola
Tesla, may not be as well known to individuals
as Thomas Edison; but should be considering
the things he discovered and invented in the
field of electrical science. The Serbian-American
scientist most known for inventing the rotating
magnetic field and production and distribution
of electrical energy based on the use of alternate
currents has become more prominent over the
years through museums and other art forms.
Fascinated by his life and the things he created,
Serbian-American director, Sanja Bestic, has
teamed up with writer Sheri Graubert to tell
the story of Tesla’s life in their new
off-Broadway play, Tesla. The play, which
will consist of an intimate cast of six actors,
three of which will be playing double rolls,
will have a preview night on May 23rd at 7pm.
Tesla will officially open on May 24th at
8pm and run through June 8th at Theatre 80
with Sunday Matinees at 3pm. With this year
being the 70th anniversary of Tesla’s
passing, Bestic couldn’t have thought
of a more perfect time to bring Tesla into
the spotlight. Putting her heart and soul
into the life of Tesla, Bestic has gained
the support of The Tesla Science Foundation,
Nikola Tesla Club, Nikola Tesla Inventors
Club of the US, The Consulate General of the
Republic of Serbia in New York, The Office
for Cooperation with Diaspora and Serbs in
the Region, as well as Vuk Jeremic who is
a Serbian physicist, Politician and President
of the United Nations General Assembly.

Director Courtney Ulrich starring The Bats,

In WHITE HOT, Lil, married

we can be to the ones we love, when we want
what they have.
