Here's a music video I made for our reading of "On Account of Sex" that celebrates 100 years since women won the vote to the tune of "A Hundred Years Hence."
Online Play Reading to Celebrate the 19th Amendment
August 18, 2020 is the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, in which women won the right to vote. To commemorate this historic event, Bryan Colley and Tara Varney will be presenting an online reading of their new musical, On Account of Sex, that details the history of the women’s suffrage movement.
Meet the women who persisted for over seventy years to add four words to the Constitution. Leaders of the women’s suffrage movement such as Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucy Stone, Carrie Chapman Catt, and Alice Paul relate their struggles and debate their cause, beginning with 1848’s Seneca Falls Convention and ending with the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920.
Join us at jupiterkansas.com for this special one-night-only presentation of the play at 7:00 p.m. Tuesday, August 18, 2020. Featuring Shelley Clark Wyche, Amy Hurrelbrink, Marcie Ramirez, and Stefanie Stevens, this centennial celebration is filled with humor, inspiration, and songs of the era.
"There Are No Small Parts" reading on Monday, May 4
It begins at 7:30pm on their Facebook Event page. Check it out.
Project Playwright Online This Weekend
Sorry about the late notice, but I'm participating in Project Playwright Online this weekend, and the first round has already happened (mine was the winning play!) There are two more rounds tonight and tomorrow with the other playwrights, and then I'll be back on Sunday for the final round.
How it works is that I'm given a writing prompt at 7pm the night before, and then I have overnight to write a short play based on that prompt. I deliver it to Project Playwright by 7am, and then the play will be memorized and fully produced and ready for voting at 6:30pm. All the actors are couples that live together so they can interact.
You can see the first round here (my script is Play #C):

And then check in at 6:30pm Sunday, April 26 to vote on the final round (you won't know who wrote which play, so just pick your favorite):
