Meet Spike. And come see Ed perform next week!


Spike says howdy...

...and Spike REALLY wants you to come see "Puppet Pandemic" in NYC next weekend!

It's a benefit for the O'Neill Alumni Scholarship fund, and I am pleased as heck to be a part of it.  There'll be a lot of GREAT puppetry at all 3 shows.  

But as added incentive - at both shows on Saturday I (Ed, not Spike) will be performing my short play, "Alaska" from my 50-play cycle AmericaLand.  With me will be my original partners in crime from last summer at the O'Neill, Marina Tsaplina and Jones.

Three shows ONLY! (*Please note: I am only performing my short piece, "Alaska" at the two Saturday shows.)
Friday Sept 25th, 7:30pm - with hosts Jim "Nappy" Napolitano, Leslie Carrara-Rudolph & Lolly
*Saturday Sept 26th, 3pm - Jim "Nappy" Napolitano

*Saturday Sept 26th, 7pm - Leslie Carrara-Rudolph & Lolly

Can't wait to see you there!!!

"This showcase of works developed at the National Puppetry Conference explores the infectious nature of puppets. Watch as artists redefine conventional notions of puppetry. From marionettes to papier mache mayhem, puppeteers breed new strains of creativity.   All profits from these performances will fund an Alumni Scholarship to attend the National Puppetry Conference, in order to continue propagating provocative theatrical works.  Like a pandemic, the passion for puppetry is spreading! The only cure: a prescription of puppet performances!"
