"Create your own projects!"

Ok so its official. She likes me. She really likes me. Well at least her book tells me so. Just got back from Amy Sedaris book signing at the ole B &N bookstore. Her book "I like you" appropriately titled, because she does like me is a gold mine of ideas related to the lost art of entertaining. Amy Sedaris style of course. Sure they are low budget Ideas and sure possible illegal but a good host will stop at nothing to pull off a swinging party. Trust me I should know. Sadly no amazing questions were asked at the Q & A. Mostly silly fans asking unrelated question trying to prove how witty,offbeat and Amy like they are. Didn't they read the book? She likes you already, you don't need to prove anything. Thankfully one brave soul asked an industry question and her response was, "Create your own projects. Don'T wait for them to come ." Thank you Amy for the inspiring advice.
For those of you unaware of my play reading project with my fellow zanny friends check out my blog entries entitled NEED 2 READ. Please come support my project, because I created one.

P.S Amy, I like you too!

I HAVE A FEVER.... for HAY FEVER THAT IS. NEEED 2 READ 4

Hey kids! Its that time again.  Just a reminder that the 3rd NEED 2 READ will be on Thursday November 6th. We usually meet around 7:30 for intros, gossip, and snacks then start reading @ 8pm.  Our play of choice is Noel Cowards hilarious Hay Fever. (click on the blog title on the original blogger page to get a quick synopsis of the play or just look it up)

For those of you wondering, "WHAT THE HECK IS NEED 2 READ?" Well here you go. 

It's about artist coming together and reading plays to make them come alive in a space, it's about getting you back into the bookstores and purchasing plays, it's about getting to work on that play that you always wanted to you that you might not ever get cast in, its about the theatre, that wonderful world that we all fell in love with. It's truly an art like no other. 

So please let me know if you plan on attending. The more the merrier! I just need to know if you plan on attending because it will determine our location for the read. So drop me a line and let me know if you are coming and if there is a specific role  you are dying to read!  Can't wait to see your faces! 

Ciao
