Winter 2019 into Spring 2020?!?!?

Hi loves...

Family Dinner at HUGE Theater is slowly (quickly?) wrapping up...

As is "You Are Most Welcome Here" for HUGE Wednesdays...














Plus some Show X, Glorious Humans, and some Mystery Cafe too.. :)

THIS SPRING!!

Please check out HUGE Wednesdays, 8 p.m., featuring both Glorious Humans (silliness) and Nudge (monoscenes).. And Show X hopefully forever and ever, as long as Mondays can go..












I'll still be offering my ages 55 and over prompted memoir class through the winter and into spring.. Please email octobedandy@gmail.com if interested! 

Uprising Theater's Friends with Guns

Hi loves... I am terribly terribly behind.

This October, I was lucky enough to finish a run with Uprising Theatre, a new four-person script by Stephanie Alison Walker entitled "Friends With Guns."

Holy crap. I am so grateful for the experience, the director (Shalee Mae Coleman!), the creative staff, the stage manager (oh hi), and the utterly ridiculous cast...

People said some nice stuff too:

So incredibly lucky.
