Darlings,
Get your hands out of the
durn turkey for a minute and settle in for a
brief holiday breath with your friend Ol’ Newsie (that’s me! I’m a newsletter and the name my parents gave me AT BIRTH was Ol’ Newsie, which is weird because at birth I wasn’t “Ol’”, but my parents are wise and knew at some point
I would be. Giving people aspirational names to grow into rather than cute, dismissive names you can grow out of is one of my parents’ GREATEST strengths. Sorry to keep bragging about my parents! I just love ‘em! The holidays make me so dang grateful!!!! What’s black and white and read and red? ME! Because you’re reading me AND I’m blushing !) We hope you had a relaxing weekend and are ready for that weird kind of
pseudo relaxing that happens at Thanksgiving. Eating and the just-after eating are relaxing, but there’s so much cookin' and shopping and planning before and then so many dishes afterwards. Everyone, HELP WITH THE DISHES. Don’t leave that for older generations or female gendered folks. If you ATE you need to HELP.
I’m a sassy Newsie! 🤷♀️
As we have become gleefully accustomed, we had a great week at the theater! Highlights included: The
Mermaid Palace podcast network launch in which
nautical babes of all gender identities flipped their tales in celebration, a hilarious edition of
Super Boss, an
Everything’s Great in which everything was BONKERS and great. (
Natalie Palamides new character would make her character Nate blush. AND THAT’S SAYING SOMETHING INSANE.) A hell on wheels (and off the road) clip show from
Friday Night Frights. A
Dynasty Tonight with a great group of folks, including a particularly sparky performance of house fave
Wayne Federman, and magically magical magic from
Taylor Hughes. The return of our
puzzle table, and a swan
puzzy who is currently in her ugly duckling phase but is sure to shine like the swan queen she is soon. And then…
Randy. Flarpin’. Feltface. We fell HARD for this soft felt friend. If you only know him from his appearances on
Bring The Funny, know this - YOU’VE ONLY JUST BEGUN. Randy’s two (SOLD OUT) shows were amazing pieces of art, comedy, humanity, and philosophy that we (really and actually) feel made us better people. See and support Randy whenever possible! And we’ve got one such possibility for you coming soon!
We’ll be taking this week off until
SATURDAY when we’ll be coming back with a vengeance, baby! We’ve got a
Dynasty Tonight with an amazing lineup INCLUDING our aforementioned puppet crush,
RANDY FELTFACE. This has to be one of our favorite lineups ever.
Y'a’ll ready for this? (duh,nuh,nuh!)
DEBRA DIGIOVANNI! MOSHE KASHER! BARON VAUGHN! BRETT GELMAN! VANESSA GONZALES! DAVID GBORIE!
And we’d be
flarpin’ dumdumpops not to mention some beautiful merch opportunities made possible for YOU by this holiday season!
This Holiday Season… Give the Gift of Dynasty! We're so excited about the offerings we've put together for you and we can't wait to share them with you!
Turkles,
Jamie and Vanessa
