Half a dozen of the ladies at the ICWP Retreat followed G.L. home about half-way through their stay ... and they talked. This is the first dozen or so minutes of the half-hour chat, more will follow next week.

While G.L. is still away, I tend to take it easy. This week we have a short interview with Jonothan Donahue followed by a reading he did with us of an excerpt from the full length play,

My wife has gone off to the ICWP Retreat at OSU. We talk about that right after the reading by Jonathan Donohue.

G.L. and Lydia take a moment to sip iced coffee on our screen-porch and discuss the project near and dear to them - a one-woman show about Mumbet.

Larry wants to change the way theater is seen in Boston. Most importantly, he'd like to point many more of you towards going to the smaller theaters. The theaters that rent their spaces to companies that lack their own. He'd like help in Making it Happen.

We've had a busy week. Helping with a production in Palo Alto, California for next week - see Vagabond for the details - and finalizing a reading of G.L.'s latest in Boston at 7PM Sunday, the 8th. We'll make sure the script gets posted to Stage Page as soon as possible.

If you think you missed an episode last week, you're only partly correct. We lost our house broadband for over three painful days and couldn't have posted a show if we had on to post. We have been punished by a slight drop in our numbers. Good thing we don't rely on ad revenue, eh? G.L. and I discuss what happened this past week. The play will be up on the Stage Page site shortly after it's public reading ... if it's ready.

We celebrated the passing of our friend "Prof" Will Stackman at the Cambridge River Festival, on the banks of the Charles River, yesterday. We shared stories and read several of his short plays. We came away feeling better, which is what I believe he would have wanted. I managed to record some of it and edited the best of it down to present here.

Our friend and colleague, Will Stackman, died last Sunday. His work can still be seen at On the Aisle and there will be a celebration of his life next Saturday, June 16th, at the Cambridge River Festival on the banks of the Charles River. Anyone may attend...

Wyn Snow, G.L.'s web mistress and one of our show's early guests, returned to discuss our current status. Her earlier show - Getting On The Web - still averages a couple downloads a day. Every day, every week, every month. If your small business needs a boost on the web, call her for help.
