A New York Premiere Musical Play
Book & Lyrics by Dan Derby
Music by Michael Rheault

FABULOUS! The Musical

Write Act Repertory Eastsideπs Producing Artistic Director John Lant present the New York Premiere of FABULOUS!, a celebrated limited engagement, opening August 11th, and closing August 26th 2012.

New York - Fabulous! The Queen of New Musical Comedies is a farce in the style of the Golden Age of Broadway. The show is a cross between Anything Goes, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and Some Like It Hot. It begins in Paris! Two female impersonators, Jane Mann and Laura Lee Handle, are down on their luck. Backing up Sue Flay, the worst Drag Diva in France, proved a complete disaster. They're jobless and homeless. Just when Jane and Laura Lee get ready to throw in their powder puffs ... a telegram! They'll headline as fabulous showgirls on a cruise ship, the Queen Ethel May. The catch? Keeping their male identities a secret from snooping crew members, jewel heisting gangsters and every gentleman caller that comes their way. It's vintage musical theater meets contemporary farce in a new musical comedy where practically everything goes.

Starring: DEONTÈ L. WARREN, *STEVEN DOUGLAS STEWART, *JOHN WASCAVAGE, KRISTIN PIACENTILE*, BRYAN SEASTROM, *AMY BIZJAK,*COURTER SIMMONS, RICKY ALTAMIRANO, BRAD BONG, DAWOYNE A. HILL, OMAR MASKATI and AARON VANDERYACHT.

Berlin Cowboys (LA) World Premiere
 
Cold War Espionage Drama
"Berlin Cowboys"
Has World Premiere at Write Act Rep
 
(Los Angeles)  --  BERLIN COWBOYS, a play dealing with the audacious and controversial exploits of the CIA in post-WW II Berlin, will have its world premiere at the Write Act Repertory Theater, March 30th - April 22nd, 2012.
 
Written by Willard Manus and directed by Iris Merlis, BERLIN COWBOYS is based on an actual historical event.  In 1953, at the height of the Cold War when Berlin was divided into four zones--American, Russian, French and British--the CIA station attempted to dig a half-mile-long tunnel under the US/USSR demarcation line and tap into the KGB's telex and telephone lines with Moscow.
 
The scheme was a daring and dangerous one. The CIA had to figure out a way to build a tunnel deep beneath East German soil, knowing full well that if the KGB detected it, it might trigger an angry and violent military response.
 
BERLIN COWBOYS recaptures the glory days of the CIA, when the organization was young and frisky, unafraid to take on the vaunted KGB at its own game.  At the same time, the play does not shy away from pointing up the shortcomings of the CIA team--a team that not only took reckless chances but failed to protect itself from KGB penetration.
 
The people who were involved in the Berlin spy tunnel caper went on to dominate American intelligence for decades to come.  Their influence on global events can be felt even today, in the first part of the 21st century.
                                                
While BERLIN COWBOYS has all the elements of a Graham Greene thriller, it mostly focuses on the human dynamics of the story, the personal rivalries that turned the CIA station into a veritable battleground. 
 
The cast stars Sophie A. Bell, Nikki Bohm, Marc Cervania, Tyler Cook, John Long*, Ricco Simonin*, Cindy Marinangel*, and Jack Seal*  (*appears courtesy of Actors Equity Association)
           
Willard Manus (Playwright) has had numerous plays produced in L.A., most recently BRIDGE, which enjoyed a 7-month run at Write Act Rep and Ruby Theatre at the Complex.
 
Iris Merlis (Director) studied theatre at Vassar College and the Guildhall School of Music & Dance in London. She started her professional career in Europe, working as an Assistant Director at a state theatre in Germany.  In the USA, she directed plays at the Phoenix Theatre, Stratford Shakespeare Festival and LaMama before moving into television, where she produced plays, concerts and comedy shows for HBO, Lorimar, and Brandman Productions. Her projects included Hughie with Jason Robards and Long Days Journey Into Night with Jack Lemmon.
           
Manus and Merlis are fellow members of the Actors Studio Playwrights/Directors Unit in Los Angeles.

The West Coast Premiere of
OSWALD
A Play by Dennis Richard
Based on the actual interrogation of Lee Harvey Oswald
Directed by Richmond Shepard
 
When Friday, November 22, 1963, comes to an end, John F. Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States & Police Officer, J.D. Tippit, both lie dead in Dallas. Amidst the chaos that ensues, an evasive Lee Harvey Oswald is arrested & becomes the number one suspect. It is the job of Captain William Fritz to extract a confession. As evidence mounts, defiance is Oswald’s only defense. Based on the bristling & explosive actual interrogation of Lee Harvey Oswald by Dallas Chief of Homicide, Captain William J. Fritz, what unfolds in OSWALD is one of the most engrossing battles ever brought to the stage, as a defiant 24 year-old, tight-lipped young man goes up against the best homicide detective the Dallas Police Department has to offer. There was no stenographer & no film or audio tapes of those interrogations, just handwritten notes by Fritz. Forty eight hours & seven minutes after the President of the United States was shot & killed, there was another shot in Dallas. That shot was for Lee Harvey Oswald.
 
OSWALD is directed by Richmond Shepard, who commented, “this is a theatrical event of tremendous historical value, as well as a gripping drama about the battle between two men, behind closed doors, in a story not known to the general public. Since those eventful days in Dallas in 1963, everyone has been heard from, except Lee Harvey Oswald.”
 
Playwright Dennis Richard’s past productions include Wreck (Richmond Shepard Theatre, 2010) Park Keeper, The Pepper-Pot Dwarf & the Gargoyle (American Center for the Performing Arts, Boston), A Suite of Rooms & Sea Listeners (86th Street Playhouse, NYC), Territory (ATA, NYC) & Twisted Steel (Burbage Theatre, LA).
 
OSWALD stars *Andrew Perez and *P. David Miller, and features *Dan L. Burkarth, A.J. Jones, *David Garver, William Kidd, Ryan McGivern and *Bert Pigg. (*appears courtesy of Actors Equity Association)

D3LiNQUENTZ
Written & performed by Stefany Northcutt

Write Act Repertory Theatre’s Producing Artistic Director John Lant, Associate Artistic Director Ken Cosby and Citizen LA are proud to present D3linquentz: a unique one-woman comedic experience written & performed by Stefany Northcutt. 

THE STORY: 
The D3linquentz dramedy centers on “four juvenile delinquents sent to a Group Home to straighten up.” Stefany, Irma, Laprell and Trinity –at risk youth destined to cross paths-- have been given one last chance to get it right. Guided by House Parents, counselors, probation officers and their family, these wounded souls will spend six months driving each other crazy while facing inner demons within an intense regimented correctional program. Each must choose a path: a choice to continue down a self-destructive path destined for abuse, imprisonment and possibly death or a choice leading to personal reform and spiritual redemption.

THE MESSAGE:
The choices that face the four adolescent main characters in D3linquentz are real world decisions that ultimately affect us all. Regardless of our social status, our location on earth or our daily inter-personal interactions, at risk youth are an unfortunate part of our world consciousness. The compelling narrative is derived from Stefany’s personal experience with the subject matter which is honest and raw while remaining transformative and uplifting. D3linquentz delves into the often intense subject matter by offering levity and rich comedic overtones to deliver a universal message of hope.

Produced by Stefany Northcutt & George C. Stiehl in association with John Lant & Write Act Rep
Direction by George C. Stiehl
Lighting Design by Sergio Escobar
