Diva REPLACES THE SUICIDE IN OUR SEASON
We write you with two bits of good news. First, our co-founder, Stephanie Shroyer, is currently directing The Good Doctor at the Pasadena Playhouse. We are so very proud of her to have landed this prestigious directing job (though it is certainly not her first such work). But because this wonderful opportunity came along for Stephanie, we had to postpone her production of The Suicide, which was originally scheduled to be running 'even as we type' as the final show of our 99/2000 Season.
But not to worry, because here is the second piece of good news. We are thrilled to have another of L.A.'s hottest directors, Jessica Kubzansky, step into our fourth season slot with a fabulous workshop co-production starring Broadway diva Camille Saviola. It's called BlueLikeBillieHolidayOnAStormyMonday,Baby.
Attached is the show information with the performance dates. We certainly hope you can make it.

a workshop production of Camille Saviola's one-woman show,
BlueLikeBillieHolidayOnAStormy
MondayBaby
Written and performed by Camille Saviola

Saviola, veteran of such Broadway shows as "Nine" and the original production of "The Who's Tommy," portrays the multiple characters that inhabit the mind of a homeless woman, all of whom are committed to "living out loud," regardless of the consequences. The show, best described as vaudeville cabaret, examines the challenges of self-expression and what happens when troublesome people refuse to let the world dictate their boundaries.
Produced by Sandelle Kincaid.
Sets are by Michael Marlowe
