Hello everyone, Matt here. I'm in Iowa City this morning, at my favorite coffee shop in the world, the House of Aromas. I'm here, with Acacia, to attend the National Performance Network annual meeting.
Al[t] affiliate Sean Lewis will be performing his one-man show , I Will Make You Orphans tonight as part of the evening's entertainment. As you may know, Sean has been touring this show (which I recently directed) for quite some time. It's getting more and more attention, and we're hoping this evening will help to catapult him to the so-called "national stage."
We've been working on a lot of projects, which often means a lot of this -
Here's an update of what's going on.

Jenn Fawcett (who's also hanging with us in Iowa) will be in Columbus for some of our rehearsals of her hauntingly beautiful play. We're putting in up in March, and we're working on getting in into a really, really nice space in downtown Columbus. The thing is, it'll take a pretty penny to get us there. If anyone reading this wants to be a sponsor of this production, please let us know. It's an great play and it deserves to be seen in the best possible way.
Tomorrow is the Question
This script is done and we're really excited. We've already been working on this one consistently since the beginning of the year. It's been a difficult script to write, that's all there is to it, but it's done and we're going to begin rehearsing soon. We hope to put this up in May or so, just after Jenn's play.
Home
What is a home? Why is it important? What does home mean to people who have lost their home, like refugees and victims of natural disasters? Is it true that you can never go back home? These questions and more will be explored in Acacia Duncan's upcoming solo work ... which doesn't really have a title yet, but we call it "The Home Show."
And, actually there's more, including the Hip Hop Theatre Afterschool Project, next year's 01 Festival, and reading series. But, you'll have to check back soon to read about that.
