puppetmakerWell the weather emergency was down graded to a bother at most. But there may be snow behind that front OoooooOOOoooooo (insert spooky sounds) on Monday into Tuesday so the Saga Continues.....
I saw Jim David's one man show "South Pathetic" in a very cold new theater. It was the story of the time that Jim David directed "A Streetcar named Desire" somewhere in the wilds of North Carolina. It was very funny with a lot of characters and cliques that I so recognized from my years of working in southern theater..
Here is the publicity e-mail
"REVELATION THEATER presents SOUTH PATHETIC, a one man comedy written and
performed by JIM DAVID.
It tells the story of a performer so down on his luck that he accepts a job
directing a Tennessee Williams play at the worst community theater in the
South. There he meets a hilarious cast of characters all trying their hand at small
town stardom.
"From this unlikely premise, hilarious mayhem arises ... David is a very
funny man. If you aren't laughing out loud at the punchlines that pepper his
performance, you probably need resuscitation." - Rochester Democrat/Chronicle
JIM DAVID, one of NY's top comedians, has been seen in his own COMEDY CENTRAL
PRESENTS JIM DAVID, TOUGH CROWD WITH COLIN QUINN, the upcoming OUT ON THE
EDGE (Feb 2 at 10pm, Comedy Central) and many other shows.
SOUTH PATHETIC has been seen around the country and was recently produced at
the Williamstown Theatre Festival. It will have a very limited engagement of
one weekend only at the REVELATION THEATER, 334 West 39th Street, Manhattan, Th
urs Jan. 22 at 8, Friday Jan. at 8 & 10, Saturday Jan. 24 at 5 and 8. Tickets
are $20, reservations at (212) 947-7000. "
If it shows up in your area and you are not offended by southern stereotypes, go see it.
