Posted Tue, March 9 Local Youngsters Needed for K.I.D.S. Performance Group
Once again, the children's ensemble group, "K.I.D.S." is in need of two or three local youngsters (ages 9-12) to become a part of the "K.I.D.S." entertainment group. K.I.D.S. stands for "Kids In Difficult Situations" and we entertain at elementary schools in the Greater Cincinnati area. Children are paid per show. There is no payment for rehearsals. All rehearsals are at my studio in Loveland.
"K.I.D.S." is scheduled to perform during the week of April 12 to 15 at an elementary school. I need at least two children to join us as rehearsals will start soon. I get each child's schedule and try very hard to arrange the rehearsal schedule around everyone's other commitments, including performance in other shows, basketball, soccer, music lessons, and whatever else a child might be involved in. This will probably be our last show of the school year. We already have several bookings for the start of the school year coming up.
"K.I.D.S." is a talented group of youngsters who perform skits, monologues, songs, raps about problems that students have every day of their lives on the playground, in the school hallways, and sometimes, even in the home. We have presentations on: bullying, nasty nicknames that hurt and demean other children, divorce in the family, why children should never start to smoke, eating disorders and body image, no guns in school, cheating in school, workaholic parents, and more. After each skit or monologue, another member of the group comes forward and talks to the audience about the problem just represented and then gives agencies and phone numbers that children can call for help. Our tags usually end with, "Remember, you may just be a kid, but you have rights, too!"
Children usually join K.I.D.S. and stay for two to three years. (I've had several for four!) The shows are written and geared to the elementary school audience (grades 2 to 5). The shows are performed for assemblies during the school day either in the a.m. portion of a day or close to the end of a school day. So, all children auditioning for K.I.D.S. need to be good students as each child will be taking a portion of a day off for each show. What usually happens is after the children audition and are accepted, I give brochures explaining our mission to the mom or dad. These are shown to the counselor or principal of the new "K.I.D.S." member school. Since our mission is "Children Helping Children Through Performance," the school authorities think it is a good endeavor for children to help others, and gladly give permission, and we get some bookings this way, too!
LOOK FOR "K.I.D.S." SHOWS SCHEDULED THROUGH MEDIA BRIDGES - WE'LL BE ON CHANNELS 15 And 24 PERFORMING IN PAST SHOWS AT VARIOUS SCHOOLS. AN EXACT SCHEDULE SHOULD APPEAR ON OUR WEBSITE SOON!
PLEASE GO TO OUR WEBSITE TO FIND OUT ALL ABOUT US. THERE IS LOTS OF INFORMATION THAT EXPLAINS WHAT WE DO AND ALSO MY QUALIFICATIONS AS THE CREATOR, PRODUCER, AND DIRECTOR OF "K.I.D.S."
OUR ADDRESS IS: www.sunnyskids.com - Be sure and click on the links and see our lineup of children who are now with us; on the CLIPS link are pictures of our members and if you scroll down, there is a video window where you can see a rap from a past show. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, PLEASE WRITE: sunny@sunnyskids.com or sunnystudio@zoomtown.com or (513) 697-1929.
Posted Mon, March 8 Seeking Theater or Group to Stage the Premiere of New Play
I am looking for a theater or group to stage the premiere of a new play.
I have adapted for the stage the first published work of America's first professional novelist, Charles Brockden Brown. The work is ALCUIN, published in 1798. In the words of Lee R. Edwards, ALCUIN is "the first sustained and earnest argument for the rights of women to appear in this country."
My adaptation, which I have titled EXEMPT FROM A THOUSAND TOILS, is in two acts, running approximately 90 minutes. The play is written as a hybrid staged reading, falling somewhere between LOVE LETTERS and 84 CHARING CROSS ROAD.
EXEMPT FROM A THOUSAND TOILS is a wide-ranging dialog between a young schoolmaster, Alcuin, and a middle-aged widow, Mrs. Carter. Topics range from politics to education, the "proper" place for women in society, the Constitution, voting, sexual relations, a fantastical place called "the paradise of women," and marriage. Despite being set in the year 1798, Mrs. Carter's declaration that "…the bickering and dissentions of a married life flow from no other source than that of too frequent communication" certainly will resonate today. "
Because the play is set at a fancy party in a large American city at the beginning of the "Jane Austen era," the play has the built-in appeal of the costumes, manners, and sensibility of the many Austen adaptations but with the advantage of a female character of greater strength and contemporary significance.
What woman (or man) wouldn't find either subversive or appealing (or both) Mrs. Carter's question to the young schoolmaster: "Why is marriage to condemn two human beings to dwell under the same roof and to eat at the same table…?" Indeed --- Why? She answers, and defends her logic, admirably in the second act.
EXEMPT provides a fascinating insight into the gender culture of the years of the early American Republic with insights that will interest and challenge today's audience, with several conclusions as controversial today as they were in 1798.
I am a professionally-produced and published playwright and have also adapted Elizabeth Barrett Browning's monumental feminist novel, AURORA LEIGH, as a screenplay.

Posted Thu, March 4 Sorg Opera Company in Middletown Having Set and Prop Sale
Sorg Opera Company is losing their storage facility and, thus, selling their sets & props at cheap, cheap, cheap prices. It's rather tragic, really. The former owner of Sorg Opera House passed away and the building was sold to a group who does not take care of it. Then the Sorg Opera Company itself was run into debt by a TD who skipped town without paying bills.
They've been doing very small productions in any place they can lately, but with Middletown dying, the city decided to condemn several old buildings and slate them for demolition, including the building they were allowing Sorg O.C. to house their sets & props in. So now Sorg Opera Company is closing for good and they have to get rid of their things or it will all end up in a landfill in two months.
I was able to purchase several large, professionally built sets and several really nice props for practically nothing! If you're interested, you may call 513.423.6745 and ask for Howard Johnson. Howard is the President of Sorg Opera Company. Spread the word to theatre people you know. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity!

Chaotic events systematically attached to this one date linked back as far as prehistoric Stonehenge. A date inexorably tied to phenomenal world events beyond coincidence. From the first and last Pharaoh to the first Ceasar. The beginning of the Shogun Dynasty to the excommunication of Henry the VIII and even the founding of America.

Posted Mon, Jan. 11 Lebanon Theatre Company Offering Paint Free to a Good Theater Home
First of all, we want to thank all of the groups and individuals who have called to offer venues and other help. We really appreciate your support.
We are getting ready for an auction that will probably be held on February 6. We will be selling props, some costumes, all kinds of table decorations and set decor pieces. Shows that are included are GLASS MENAGERIE, ON GOLDEN POND, STEEL MAGNOLIAS and various others. We have an antique stove and 80+ padded gold banquet chairs, 15 bent wood chairs from the Beaumont Inn in Harrodsburg, KY and many more treasures. We are also parting with some of our furniture and eight beautiful hanging lights which were in our banquet and lobby area. We'll have pictures on line soon. Prior to that auction, we have been cleaning out, organizing, and so forth.
We have many, many, many partial cans of paint that are excellent for scene painting. We will be unable to move them to our storage facility which is not heated sufficiently to store the paint. We want to offer it to any of you who will come and get it from our facility. If no one comes to get it, we will be forced to put kitty litter in it to harden it and then throw it all away. That would be such a shame.
If you would like to look at it or just take it, please let us know. You can call Georgia Dunn or Wayne Dunn at 513.494.1932 to arrange pickup. Some of us are there during the day and some in the evening so we should be able to set up a time.
Again, thanks so much and please put our auction on your calendar. Things will probably go cheap and you might as well have them.
