We are living all that science/dystopian fiction you love to watch. How about we all become the main characters of the story and wreak some havoc on the authority?

We need to record what is happening, document it, before the narrative is shifted. Please come to class this Wednesday 630pmPST on Zoom. Free but donations to Breath of Fire Latina Theater Ensemble are gratefully accepted. wix.to/rBI0dun #documentinghistory #truthtelling #theatre #boflte

Oops. I washed all my bras. I guess I’ll be a hippie gal today.

Theatre review: Laughs in Spanish from Seattle Rep at Bagley Wright Theater www.britishtheatreguide.info/reviews/laug...

How are autistic and other neurodivergent characters represented in theater, film and television? Listen to my in-depth interview with “Sapience” playwright @dianaburbano.bsky.social to explore this important facet of the representation debate. kboo.fm/media/126225...

Apparently NEA approved Mamet play to reopen Victory Gardens because why not, we are in hell.

Reviews are coming in for Sapience! www.orartswatch.org/sapience-a-l...

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT? Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

After spending last week writing about arts censorship, it's occurred to me that art making that critiques power, that celebrates diversity can now be considered an act of resistance. And audience members supporting art is even more important now

My first and definitely last time working with the Los Angeles Times. Editing out the most urgent point of an OpEd in the minutes before sending to press while then also assigning a title and image that suggest an argument entirely opposite to the author’s clear intent is pretty shitty.

Holding my breath. But not drowning.

Gonna start posting here on the regular... First things first, I'm on the search committee of this very cool playwriting fellowship @emorycollege.bsky.social . If you've received an MFA in playwriting in the last eight years, consider applying. www.higheredjobs.com/institution/...

This is really horrifying - The ability to strip non-profits of tax exempt status for “Groups supporting terrorism.” Imagine a theater producing a play critical of the the administration called out for it’s perceived “terrorist” content.

My Ghosts of Bogotá at NAU. Design by student Adrian Chavez

Sitting in rehearsal. In a dark dank basement. Watching people magically become other people. If the audience could see this work, would they become more invested?

Fascinating idea: “Normally the portrait is passive and you are the active one. In this case the portrait is active and you are passive.”

I’m Diana. Playwright focused on Latine topics, currently working on an adaptation of The Heiress and a play about beauty pageants in Colombian prisons. I love new plays.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens. Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”

In rehearsal for Christmas Carol. A story with particular resonance this season.
