THE SHAH, RIP...
You gotta admit, with the Shah of Iran, you got a snappy dresser with a hot chick perched behind him on a hog...
RIP, Shah Dude...

RIP MICHAEL JACKSON...well, kind of...
The Iranian Mullahs needn't worry about any further US interference as all Americans pause to mourn the tragic and untimely passing of a prominent pedophile.

EGO-BOOSTER NUMBER 6...
Just got an email from John Lant, the head honcho at Write Act Repertory. Attached to the email were scans of the postcard front and back for the upcoming one-act fest. Looks pretty damn good, doncha think?
Oh, and by the way, here's my actress. She emailed me, told me she really likes my play. I love it when they say they like my play. Don't ever tell people flattery doesn't work. 'Cause it does...
Opening night is June 26th. Write it down...

THEY ALREADY HAVE THEIR REWARD...
I wrote this letter-to-the-editor to the OC Metro in 2004 in response to an article on Paul Folino's fund-raising endeavors to benefit the South Coast Repertory Theatre.
The letter, in retrospect, was probably too snarky and certainly too bitchy. But the point was (and is) valid.
Theatres like the SCR will survive. They have the support of the community bigwigs who will always give to "The Arts" because they want to appear cultured and refined, even when they're not.
But the struggling small theatrical entities will always remain under your basic OC billionaire's radar. I'm talking about the theatres that operate out of storefronts in the inner city. Theatres where the members of the company work for no pay.
These are the ones who take the risks and carry on for the love of the art. But nothing is forever. And sadly, when one of them gives up the ghost, nobody seems to notice, or care.
We have maybe eleven theatres that do live stage in the OC. We used to have twelve, but the Rude Guerrilla just shut its doors. The landlord raised the rent and...well, you get the picture.
It happens. It's too bad when it does. I'll miss it. RIP, RG.
