FA LA LA THIS…

Attention Writers*Performers*Self Promoters

I’m looking for two people who fit the above description for an upcoming holiday monologue show called FA LA LA THIS; twisted tales from a hard candy christmas.

I’m looking for original monologues, about 20 minutes max, more in the vein of Sedaris that Silver Bells. Dark comedy not Courier and Ives…but all are interested to respond. Past monologues have covered such topics as being asian at Christmas, how a tranny got her breasts as an XXXmas gift and white trash memories to name a few. All monologues must be memorized and performed.

Performance dates are December 13, 14, 20, 21, 22 at 8pm upstairs at Carolyn’s 5706 7th Avenue in downtown Kenosha. It’s a great space and we’ll use it well. I’ve got a vintage Christmas slide show and some other tricks up my sleve. You must be able to commit to all 5 performances.

This is the fourth year I have produced/performed in this show and I can tell you it is a lot of fun; the perfect anecdote to the inevitable Ryan Seacrest holiday special. In addition to writing and performing, you will have to help sell the show…you know, pressuiring your friends and family with endless emails, postering your neighborhood…workin’ it.

There may be pay…we can talk about that at a later date. If you are interested, please send me a BRIEF sample of your writing style and what you might have in mind for the show. I want to nail down the other two performers by November 7th so I can push forward with all the marketing stuff (press releases, posters, etc…) Feel free to drop me an email or give me a call with any questions you may have or with a sample of your stuff.

Come on…you know you want to.

Here’s to working with you!
