Just another update. Last Saturday we had our workshop production of Hell-Bent, written by Sander Gunisow and directed by Lourdes Uno. We were really proud of the work they did and can't wait to see another production of this some time in the future. Unfortunately we were able to get any pictures to put up of it. Well...they were on a mobile device that had to be reset. Yeah. Things that only happen with up and coming theatre company, huh? But anyway, we're really proud of the show, the artists who we got to showcase and the audience members we got to share it with!
My other reason for the update is to remind you about our fundraising campaign which ends in just a little over twenty-four hours. We really need your support to make this show everything it deserves to be. It is our most experimental and ambitious show to date and we're so excited about it. Check out our campaign and be a part of it while there's still time. Right here, guys!
That's all for now

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!

It's coming soon!
Hi, friends and fans!
How's it going? Things are really getting crazy for us. Our very first festival is coming up, the week of March 19th-24th. Can you believe it? All the directors, writers, actors and crew have been working really hard and we're excited to see what they came out with. Meanwhile, we've been promoting the heck out if, with postcards, facebook ads and press releases. The only thing we need now? An audience to come out and vote on these plays! And actually, we're pretty confident we're gonna have that. The work speaks for itself.
Speaking of which, wanna see the lovely graphic we have for the Take Ten festival, designed by Dan Streeting?
Gorgeous, right?
Check out our festival website, facebook event or search for Take Ten on Smarttix.com to order tickets.

Hey, all!
Just a quick little update. First of all, yes, we had to cancel the mardi gras party due to weather concerns. Sad, I know. I wanted to be able to post some scandalous pictures!
But the good news is that we are moving forward with the Take Ten festival! We have a website (under construction), a facebook event and oh, yeah, you can order tickets!
More on all of this very, very soon!

Secondly, I'm happy to say that our holiday party/fundraiser was a great success! We've tried several venues for these types of events and although we enjoyed them all, we found a really good fit with Traffic! We'll likely be hosting future events there, so look out...and thanks to those who came out with us for this event a few weeks ago! You can check out the photo album we have on facebook for just a little slice of the fun we had!
Finally, we're going to be having a Mardis Gras themed event this february 16th. We don't have the venue or time info yet, but it will include dance, music, movement and comedy!
Check back with us soon!
