As I said before, blogging is embarrassing. More embarrassing than THAT is asking for money for my FringeNYC project, BITCH!, the play based on Lady Lawford's book.
We have a little more than two weeks to raise the rest of $3500--Team Bitch has raised about $2700 of that goal, with more than a little help from our friends. For more info about the fundraising and the really cool rewards for donating, check out www.kickstarter.com/projects/1663327260/lets-kickstart-this-bitch-my-play-i-mean.
My brand new website is up, www.andsoshedid.com, with more info about the play. And in a few days, we'll unveil a short film by Gillian Farrell, with yours truly as Lady Lawford.
Melinda Buckley, our intrepid director, is getting ready to hold auditions for the role of Buddy (know a great young actor in his twenties who's a piano wiz?); Melissa Doyle, our producer, is rounding up rehearsal space and a staff (contact us if you know a great stage mgr or lighting designer--fun guaranteed, but not a lot of $$).
FringeNYC has told us we'll be at the Connelley Theatre on East 4th Street--exact dates TBA next week, but definitely several dates between August 14-30.
SO--everything's in motion--but if we don't meet or exceed the $3500 goal on Kickstarter.com, we don't get any of that money at all. And we actually need more than that to put the play up. Whew. Think good thoughts and spread the word, will you, to anyone you think this may interest or amuse!?
Thanks for your support; we'll see you on the Fringe!
