Hey pretty Darlings,
Hope you’re able to scrape yer sticky self off the floor and give this a brief read. It’s flarpin’ HOT here in LA and we’re just human puddles scootin’ from one zone to the next. You know what’s the best way to BEAT said heat? AIR CONDISH. Something we are proud to say we have at the theater! AC really pairs best with entertainment, so in ADDITION to a temperature controlled environment, we’ve gone to great lengths to have the stage filled with some of the most amazing performers on the planet puttin’ on shows for you. Life updates: the squirrel won, and the ravaged corn has been pulled from Van’s yard. Personal updates: Jamie’s post-plant medicine journey glow has only slightly begun to dim, and we have stupid drivers and the heat to thank for that. Yeah, we said it, STUPID drivers. But Jamie does realize that ultimately it's about a failing driving educational system and likely latent ancestral trauma that causes these humans to forget to use the basic courtesy of engaging their blinkers and moreover that kinda the whole point of driving is generally to get from one place to another. So like, I don't know, maybe drive with a little more urgency and edge into the intersection when making a left hand turn? Just some ideas. Now, onto better vibes! Omg, at this Saturday’s Dynasty Tonight! we have a stellar line-up AND an amazing medium! Straight from The Hollow, JESS PERLMAN will be giving a reading to one of our audience members on stage! Get tickets for a CHANCE for the reading, and a GUARANTEE for a great night!
CALLING ALL PR PEOPLE: Are you a Dynasty Darling that has a successful career in Public Relations? Are you friends or relatives with someone that has a career in Public Relations? If so, we might need your help here at Dynasty! We can give you additional info if you contact us, but long story short, we don't know how to relate to the public. Hit us up if you're interested in learning more!
THIS WEEK AT DYNASTY
🛳️ TONIGHT, MONDAY, 6/24, 7:30PM: The Gale
Featuring: DREW DROEGE, MITCH SILPA, PETE ZIAS, CHRIS ECKERT, JOHN HARTMAN, LIZ FELDMAN, JIMMY FOWLIE, BRIANNA, SAM PANCAKE
+ More!
THE GALE is an entirely improvised comedy show that premiered on the Groundlings stage in 2015 and has been sailing (I’m sorry) out performances ever since. Created by Chris Eckert, The GALE features some of the best and funniest queer (or LGBTQ) improvisational actors in the United States. Every so often, we get together and celebrate all the joyously queer things about the world. Why then, you might ask, do we title our show after a sometimes destructive weather pattern?
…Because queer folk have historically disrupted the normal ‘patterns’ of society, and often for the better. Be it Leonardo DaVinci or RuPaul, Martha P. Johnson or Harvey Milk, Barbara Gittings or Pedro Zamora, we’re constantly breaking through glass ceilings and using the shards to create intricate chandeliers of change, lighting the way for the next generation.
That was way too many metaphors. But you get it.
By the way, did you know DaVinci spent his free time drawing erotic doodles? When he wasn’t inventing, he was drawing dicks. Look that shit up.
