(email announcement sent out to list, and posted here for your perusing pleasure.)

hey all,

my workshop production of Lydia’s Funeral Video at The Marsh is just two weeks away, on Wed, August 26th ! advance tickets make everyone happy, and getting advance tickets will earn you Magical Gold Money*! you can purchase tickets by clicking here: http://bit.ly/12UPJ4

(you can tell i care about this email because i’m making exciting and somewhat unnecessary formatting choices!)

i have been rehearsing the show in the 90+ degree heat & humidity of NYC, so by the time it makes it to the bay it’ll be hella tough & shit. but it’ll still have that SF integrity to cut the edge.

(i think i already mentioned that advance tickets make everyone happy & will earn you Magical Gold Money*! but i care so much about that point i’m repeating it, and possibly alienating you! [hey, sometimes risks must be taken.] you can purchase them by clicking here: http://bit.ly/12UPJ4 )

there are also other things upcoming. see below. and thanks for reading.

1. WED, AUG 26th; 7.30pm (please note untraditional start time!)

or, more info: http://www.LydiasFuneralVideo.com
one night only! if you go to one of my shows for the rest of the year, please go to this one; if it does well, it will be given further consideration for a full production at the marsh. which would be quite lovely. unless you’re a hater.

(special note! after performance at the marsh, i will be heading over to Du Nord to see Goh Nakamura & Odessa Chen – a splendid evening, indeed.)

2. THURS, AUG 20th; 7 – 10pm (please note this event takes place before the event above…)

(special note about LP! Laundry Party is now bicoastal! we have had three nyc LPs in the last month, so we expect there to be an LP Public in nyc soon, too; stay tuned. or not, your choice.)

3. i’ll be participating in a KSW Litcrawl event in October, and performing my solo show Back to the Graveyard in November. also, another !secret project! is in the works, but more on that later. (the brief & unsatisfying mention of the !secret project! is to build suspense and shit. i don’t know if it’s working or not, but it amuses me to try my hand at email-based suspense-building.) all the info of stuffs is at http://www.samanthachanse.com.

thanks for reading,
