we are approaching the remaining two shows of the NYC production of “Lydia’s Funeral Video,” part of the 12th annual New York International Fringe Festival (FringeNYC), a production of The Present Company. You will be pleased (or pissed, if you don’t like me or the show) to know that the festival thus far has been going very well, and director Thomas Connors & I, along with Authorized Company Representative Daniel Simon (you don’t mess with the Authorized Company Rep, by the way) and light/sound designer/operators Anton Delfino & Whitney Mosery are quite enjoying ourselves.

RANDOM BLOG INTRUDER: No one’s interested in your uninspired summary. And when are you going to start blogging regularly? This shit is pathetic.

i’m sorry you don’t approve, but i think, sometimes, being unpredictable and adding posts at irregular intervals makes this site even more fascinating and compelling.

RBI: Not really. But carry on.

i see you’ve started capitalizing the first words of sentences, as well as first person singular pronouns. impressive.

RBI: I don’t take kindly to sarcasm.

anyway, we are fortunate enough to have two new online reviews of the show:
