The Wooster Group recently toured it’s collaborative production (with The New York City Players) EARLY PLAYS to Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco, and REDCAT in Los Angeles. Our incredible Blog Maker, Zbigniew Bzymek, is working on his next feature film, so I enlisted myself for a blog takeover while we were out on the west coast. This is the final post from our time on tour. I hope to be able to make some more blog stuff for TWG in the future. Stay tuned.

This is the first post from our time on tour. More videos to follow in the next few days.
TWG is bringing Vieux Carré to the 2011 Holland Festival. Here’s a quick video they produced of some behind the scenes stuff. Unfortunately this was pretty much the morning of day 02 and not much video magic was up and running yet.
The Wooster Group has revamped its website. I’ve been part of the team putting it all together. We’ve been posting a new video everyday. To sustain this we’ve been pulling things from the TWG archives, rehearsal clips, readings from reviews, and Zbigniew Bzymek has been documenting our process in a glorious in-progress meta-film. We’re just getting started and I’m excited for the things that are to come.
The Wooster Group‘s North Atlantic is running this weekend and next at the REDCAT in downtown Los Angeles. It’s a great show, and I was lucky enough to get to rehearse as “Lud” for the month that we were in rehearsals at the Garage in SoHo, while Scott Shepherd was in a run of Gatz in Cambridge with ERS. I was able to get out there this weekend to shoot the show for our archive, and was really finally able to experience the show for the first time as a pseudo-audience member. The show is mind-blowing. A reminder not only of why I’ve always wanted to work with this company, but why I became involved in theatre in the first place. Really visceral, inspiring stuff. Go see it.
