  1. A night at The Vogel

    Enjoying ourselves at the Vogel last night.
    Ran into our beautiful friends, Glen & Gina.
    Jesse Malin’s show “Silver Manhattan” was SPECTACULAR!
    (Photos of the show were not allowed)
    It is said not to give away the ending of a story because you’ll ruin it for others. For this, I can’t even give away the beginning because it’s the most jolting play opener you’ll ever see!
    This is a play that can be handed down generation to generation (to D-Generation) because it wasn’t just the story of Jesse Malin, it was a story for all of us. Anyone who lost a true friend, lost a loving parent, anyone who was mocked as an outsider and created their way into their dream career, and has had their good health stolen from them — no matter how healthy they once were.
    Whether you know Jesse’s music or not, this is a show everyone should see because it’s so relatable to the essence of being a human being. But of course, the music is excellent. Jesse picked a variety of songs throughout his career to illustrate his story. With song and word he paints a poignant, honest portrait of his journey. It’s a tear jerker, but also an inspiration.
    God bless, Jesse Malin, we love you!

  2. Day 15 of my new advertising campaign, which has reached SEVERAL people and resulted in only slightly fewer clicks than last year (When I didn't run the campaign...)

  3. So, posting every day on my blog has increased page views by 22% ! Yay!
    But I'm specifically posting about individual plays, and including links that let people read those plays for free. In the week I have been doing this, only one person has viewed a play script. And it wasn't one of the ones I posted.
    I am baffled.

  4. The title of Noel Coward's spooky play is taken from Shelley's poem To a Skylark, ("Hail to thee, blithe Spirit! / Bird thou never wert"). This, and nine more facts about it.

  5. kew can generate playlists on-the-fly with simple commands.

    Here are some examples:

    kew nirvana # plays all your nirvana music shuffled

    kew nirv #same thing

    kew neverm #plays nevermind album in order

    kew song smells #force it to look for a song that contains the string smells

    kew dir nevermind # force it to find the folder not a song

    kew wu-tang:raekwon:ghost:meth # plays a bunch of wu-tang music

    kew all # shuffles and adds all your music to the playlist

    kew albums # plays all albums on after the other in random order

  6. Plays by Anton #Chekhov, all for free. These include several notable #plays such as "The Bear," "The Proposal," and "The Cherry Orchard," among others. They can be downloaded as EPUB3, Kindle Use Send-to-Kindle, Kobo Transfer via USB and others. The overarching themes of his works often revolve around the complexities of human relationships, social issues, and the often absurd nature of everyday life, providing insights into the characters' struggles and desires. The opening portion of the collection features a detailed introduction by the translator, Julius West, who discusses the significance of Chekhov's contributions to theatre.
    Go to write.atspace.cc/writers-cramp/ then Eminent Writing Two – read online and downloads from main menu. Masterful works of #literature.

  7. @paninid That doesn't include me, because I still read #books, including the #plays of Christopher Marlowe. I've also read: columbia.edu/~jeh1/mailings/20.

  8. The Third Casket: How Shakespeare Taught Us to Choose the Thing We Cannot Refuse

    A man walks into a room and finds three boxes waiting for him. One is gold, one is silver, one is lead. He has been told that his whole life turns on which one he opens, and that the rules forbid him to open more than one. The woman he wants stands beside the boxes, unable to help him, bound by a dead father's will. This is the casket scene from The Merchant of Venice, and it is one of the strangest moments in Shakespeare, because the test is rigged twice over. It is rigged inside the play, where Portia's dead father designed the riddle so that only a man who can see past surface will win her. It is rigged outside the play, in the deeper sense Freud uncovered in 1913, where the choice was never free at all, and the man was always going to reach for the box that means his death. […]
