The Mammals - Breed with Me
most folks don't come to mr. morlock for theatre reviews. cuz most folks know that mr. morlock ain't fully stocked in what some might call eriudition or coherentish thought. but he's going to yammer at you anyway.
The Mammals. "Breed with Me." saw it last night. damn good show. seriously. completely digging the mammals thing. mr. morlock waxed nonsensically last year about Devils Don't Forget. this time he'll be a bit more brief.

the mood, the vibe? that beautiful sense of woozy dislocation. dropped into the middle of the story with a morally ambiguous, not entirely trustworthy narrator, who in any event knows little more than we do about what the hell is going on.
the story? figure it out for yourself. spin it how you will. after the show in the Long Room, mr. morlock heard a half dozen interpretations. all correct. and all intersecting on one salient point: alien chicks are SCARY.
and speaking of alien chicks, let's oh-so-briefly mention performances. Sara Gorsky? rocks. no other word for it. brings complete A-game on four or five different levels. total package. rocks.

whole cast was solid, committed, funny. 'cept that Don Hall character. completely ruined his scary golem, Andre-the-creepy-Giant thing by having his fly open the entire performance. cheap laughs get you nowhere, pal.
like that whole thing about his fly being open. cheap laugh. got me nowhere. anyhoo.
"Breed with Me" has a few more weekends to go. see it. seriously. it's weird, disturbing, dissatisfying (like, get you angry and arguing) , thought-provoking, toe-curling, what-the-fucking?, and everything you want to see in a bad-ass basement theatre production.
cheers.

Deathscribe 2009: The Second Annual International Festival of Radio Horror Plays Final Roster.
First, however, we would like to thank EVERYONE who submitted a script to DEATHSCRIBE 2009. We were delightfully overwhelmed with the number and quality of the submissions. In the end, we were upset that we could only present five, as there were so many wonderful scripts to choose from. It was a privilege to read these scripts, every last one of them. To all of those Dark Scribes who did not make the final five, thank you so much for sharing your stories with us, and keep writing. The more Dark stories out there, the better.
In the end, there could be only five scripts in the judged portion of DEATHSCRIBE 2009. After two rounds of blind judging and much discussion, all signs pointed to these five:
Bags of Blood, written by Daniel Caffrey, directed by Don Hall.
The Most Beautiful Woman in the World, written by Clint Sheffer, directed by Cecilie Keenan.
The Dust Gods of Dr. Gaul, written by Jude Mire, directed by Robert Breuler
The Skinny Man, written by Scott T. Barsotti, directed by Katie McLean
Remembrance, written by Chris Hainsworth, directed by Nic Dimond.
Congratulations to all the Death Scribes. We will see you all at DEATHSCRIBE, at the Music Box Theatre on October 5th.
