The Good Negro (we're actually back now)

“The Good Negro” is the title of the play I’m working on right now.
Not working on like the play I’m writing right now, but working on, like I’ve got work running the follow spot for a show at The Public Theater. I spent the beginning of the week up at the park doing some lighting prep for Hamlet, which opens there in a few weeks, now I’m spending 12+ hour days down at the Public proper.
Jenn has been working at MTV and BET. Today she pigged out at the 9th ave food fest WITHOUT ME!!! (It's one of our favorite NYC events) and is generally looking forward to all of the free concerts in the summer in the city in the summer in the city.

All of this is to say that yes, we’re actually back. Not that half-back status I described in my previous entry, but full on dayjob New York busy can barely believe we’ve been on such a trip figuring out rehearsal schedules for upcoming NY improv shows BACK!

It’s long days in tech on this show. Over the past two days I actually finally read Les Miserables and resumed work on a script I’d been procrastinating for months (for purposes of trip preparation).
I’ll be posting a few more entries about the trip. I’ll pop off some more chronological diary entries followed by a few of the better anecdotes. You can bug Jenn to get some more of the pictures up too.

It looks like “The Good Negro” is going to be good, by the way, though we’re just in tech so it’s hard to know how the tempo and pacing will pan out. It’s part of the Public Lab series and the tix are only $10.
I’ll see you from the spot booth!
