Reactionary Meter: 24 Hour Plays!
http://reactionarymeter.blogspot.com/2011/11/24-hour-plays.html
Mostly a theatre blog. Tuesday, November 15, 2011. Last weekend, I worked with The New Theatre Project. The writers began working immediately - spending the first hour or so after the meeting together was crucial, as we needed to remind one another on what was said and also get a feel for the project (I actually wrote Infinite Bread. I ended up writing four plays that night, and got maybe two hours of sleep. I also directed two, including my own You Can't Really Kill Ben For Experience Points. Keith is e...

Reactionary Meter: A perfect musical, except for the book and music
http://reactionarymeter.blogspot.com/2011/10/prompted-by-semperaugustus-who-reminded.html
Mostly a theatre blog. Monday, October 3, 2011. A perfect musical, except for the book and music. Who reminded me that I should write about this stuff.). I can see how Daddy Long Legs. Was a seductive idea. An adaptation of Jean Webster's novel, previously staged both under its own name and as the 1952 musical Love From Judy. And filmed in 1919 starring Mary Pickford. 1935 with Shirley Temple. And 1955 with Fred Astaire. Fun fact: It even was the basis for two animes. Assisted by a sharp pit orchestra an...

Reactionary Meter: The Pit was not The Pits
http://reactionarymeter.blogspot.com/2011/09/pit-was-not-pits.html
Mostly a theatre blog. Thursday, September 29, 2011. The Pit was not The Pits. I don’t always take stock of the many theatrical performance venues which I’ve visited over the years, which can sometimes lead to a theatrical memory immediately coming to the forefront of my mind. This was the case when discussing a play with fellow blogger Russ the other day; this play had been featured at The Pit. In The Barbican Centre. Within the City of London. I often wonder if other theatre-goers may treat their plays...

Reactionary Meter: Graft of the Glue Gun
http://reactionarymeter.blogspot.com/2011/10/jp-recently-referred-to-some.html
Mostly a theatre blog. Tuesday, October 4, 2011. Graft of the Glue Gun. JP recently referred to some correspondence we had, in his post about The Pit. I thought I'd discuss the context here, as it's an odd story. The Penny Seats are currently hunting for plays for our 2012 season, and I've been doing a lot of searching and reading. Recently, I found a copy of The Gift of the Gorgon. By Peter Shaffer, better known for Amadeus. A day later, he sent me a passage through one of those sites that lets you look...

Reactionary Meter: Sibling Thrivalry
http://reactionarymeter.blogspot.com/2011/10/disgust-v-delight.html
Mostly a theatre blog. Thursday, October 6, 2011. A particularly telling moment in Penny Seats play selection history last week. Lauren and I tried to describe Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa's The Velvet Sky. Sadly, not up for consideration this year) to Jacqui, talking almost simultaneously. Jacqui pointed out that Lauren had become visibly distraught and freaked out.while I only got more excited. Oh well. I mean, yeah, it's totally messed-up and disturbing. But SO GOOD.
