War Stories

(l-r Edward Furs, Ephraim Lopez, Nick Anselmo)

Well, the wheel in the sky keeps on turning... and we're already in rehearsals for our next show, Elliot, A Soldier's Fugue. It's a really moving play about three generations of a Puerto Rican family going to three different wars. Rehearsals have just started, but I can already tell it's going to be a great show. Plus the cast is a totally fun group-- it's so awesome to have four Puerto Rican actors plus a Puerto Rican director up in Studio 3! Makes me think of my own extended Puerto Rican family. Not to mention, after two all-male casts in a row we finally get an actress up here. Our director is Jose Aviles, the Walnut's Theatre School Coordinator. I've been seeing Jose around the building these past four years and it's really great to actually work one-on-one with him.

So don't miss this one-- it's going to be really great. We run February 23rd (my mom's birthday!) through March 14th.

On a totally unrelated note, my friend Alison has started a new blog. Read it here-- it's hilarious, just like Alison.
