A new friend, a demonic workshop and a heartfelt plea...

A lot's going on right now with Between Us and I wanted to update you all about it. First of all, Tierney Nolen, an actor we have worked with on three straight full productions and truly love do to her attitude and talent, has become an official member of the company as our Social Media Director! Please welcome Tierney and please remember that this was our first introduction to her!:


Long live the Sheep!

In addition, we are having a workshop this Saturday, July 26th, at our old spot, the Director's Studio (311 West 43rd St, 4th floor) of Hell-Bent, a new horror-comedy one act by Sander Gusinow, the winning playwright from this year's Take Ten festival. Here's a reminder of his incredible work:


The play will be directed by Lourdes Uno, another artist we've been pleased to work with during the last few years, who wrote and directed another play in this year's festival. They were the only two horror authors to qualify for the festival and we really feel like their voices are a natural match. Here's a look at her work from the festival:


So join us while we celebrate these two unique voices. The whole thing will only be ten dollars, there will be refreshments for sale and you will be supporting a company doing new, diverse work! Plus, it will be scary!
Here's the facebook event.

And speaking of new work...I've been hinting for some time about the labor play we are producing in September. Well, in case I haven't put all this up here, or you forgot, Samantha and I collaborated on a historical fiction/multimedia event called Uprising and it will be playing September 2-8 at Shetler Studios. You will be hearing a lot more from me about this as it gets closer, but for right now, we are doing an indiegogo campaign and we really need the support in order to provide our cast with the sets and costumes they deserve to make their work look professional. Please donate and share! We only have twelve days left!
