VIDEO: SERIALS 2: THUNDERDOME – Episode 3 Smackdown!

KTC_Series2Chris Wesselman and John Bromels have some words for the reigning Thunderdome champions.

Those champions of the first two weeks have been:

  • ANDY’S HOUSE OF [BLANK] by Paul Strickland and Trey Tatum
  • CINDERBLOCK by Ben Dudley
  • PEGGY HART MINI MYSTERY HOUR by Alison Rampa

SERIALS is Know Theatre’s Monday Night program of new plays by local writers, told in fortnightly installments over the course of 10 weeks.

How does it work? 15 minute episodes, every two weeks, a total of 5 installments. In each installment, we’ll present 5 shows. At the end of the evening, the audience will vote on which 3 plays get to continue for another episode.

Can THE NEXT 15 MINUTES or SO IN TENTS take one or two of the reigning three down?

THE BLIND DATE PROJECT Runs March 5-7

CAC_The Bling Date Project logoTHE BLIND DATE PROJECT
Presented by The Contemporary Arts Center at Know Theatre of Cincinnati
March 5-7
Over-the-Rhine

Cast: Bojana Novakovic & Jon Kovach on Friday, Darnell Pierre Benjamin on Saturday

A theatrical experiment, THE BLIND DATE PROJECT was created by Serbian/Australian actress, writer and producer Bojana Novakovic and Marc Winter, with the intention of learning about the social experiment of blind dating. Just like her character Anna, Novakovic, who sits alone in a bar, has no idea who her date will be until the show begins. Each date follows the same basic structure, in which karaoke is involved, but no two dates are the same.

The director provides each actor with a unique direction, defining what they would like each character to get out of the date. Guided only by text messages and phone calls from the director, each performance promises to be as unpredictable as it is dangerous. Premiering in Australia in 2012, the show aims to demonstrate the vulnerable, thoughtful, hilarious and humiliating moments that can happen on a first date.
