Darlings-
As we head into the final days of July (what?!), we wanted to remind anyone reading this email that, hey, YOU ARE NOT IN TROUBLE! This is a sentiment we try to remind ourselves of often while running this theater, as we both have this go-to nagging sense that we're a) neglecting important tasks and/or b) letting any number of people down at any/every given moment. And it harkens back to this feeling from childhood of a parent or sibling or teacher or angry neighbor or bully or arcade attendant or sensei or customer service representative yelling at us and literally saying "Ooooh you're in trooouuuuble!" But we're adults now, kinda! And yeah, sure it's possible that a bill didn't get paid on time, or someone actually is disappointed with us for not responding to an email or call or direct message within a few months [years]. But being a human can sometimes be really hard! So we gotta have each others backs and believe we're doing the best we can under any given circumstances and that even if it's not up to a standard we like to have for ourselves, that's ok, and trust that things are playing out exactly as they need to be and it's very rarely personal. Does this motivational approach to the week resonate? Email us to commune, or tell us what you think you're in trouble for and we'll [most likely] absolve you! (But please, if possible, try not to implicate us in any crimes. #healthyboundaries) Are you someone we know intimately that actually thinks we ARE in trouble? Email us and yell at us and take our non-response as it sliding right off of our empowered asses! Are we allowed to say asses in an e-blast? Sure, we currently declare!
In other news, a special shout out to everyone who's attended a Dynasty Tonight! show so far this year! It's one of our most fun things to do at the theater and we've had such a ball hosting and playing with our wonderful band The Dynasties and bringing up our favorite comedians and artists and giving away stuff and getting to more intimately know our wonderful audience (you!) We're taking a little hiatus but hope to be back better than ever sooner than later! In the meantime, Saturdays will have some wonderful alternative programming and headliners, including this weekend the amazing Laurie Kilmartin doing a long set! Laurie is one of our all time favorites and will be joined by a killer line-up so get your tickets and we'll see you Saturday!
And gosh do we got some other fine, fine programming at Dynasty this week to lift your spirits! Read below and buy tickets to all of them, if you want! Or pick and choose! You do you! This is your week to shine!
Asses,
VanJam
💕 THIS WEEK AT DYNASTY 💕
🎤📽️ MONDAY, 7/29, 7:30PM: JOSH SHARP'S New Thing: An Hour of Standup with 1000+ Slides 🎤📽️
🚨LOW TICKET WARNING🚨
Brooklyn comedian JOSH SHARP (a24’s Dicks: The Musical, Ziwe, Search Party, plus many other esteemed under fives) does a new show where he performs an hour of stand up while he clicks through 1000+ slides. Expect jokes and story-telling alongside the herculean feat of stupidity that is memorizing a cue roughly every 3 seconds. Basically a one man show that’s also a magic trick. Funny. Dumb. Manic. Erudite. A little sad. Funny. DUMB.
Featuring opener NICOLE BYER.
🪆👸🏽 TUESDAY, 7/30, 7:30PM: BARBIES 🪆👸🏽
