11 Be or Not 11 Be

Last night, Mitch and I, the resident Night Owls of No. 11 Productions, were interviewed on the radio! Actor Paul Newport hosts a segment called “Acting Up” and last night, or, rather, this morning at around 2am, we were on live talking about our upcoming reading series (11 Celebrates 10), our company, and our upcoming original production: Claire and the Ornithological Shadow.

It was my first experience ‘going live on the air’ and I will say I was rather nervous about it. However, Paul Newport is a real swell fella and an excellent interviewer, and it was a very fun and exciting venture. Our segment was part of the Teddy Smith show on WPAT AM 930. They’re gonna send us a copy and we should have it uploaded onto our website soon (for our loyal fans who did not happen to stay up until 2am to listen to us).

Here at No. 11 Productions we are working hard to get this company moving and exciting events, such as this radio interview, are starting to bring us some legitimacy. We’ve got a very full, varied, and thoroughly awesome Winter Season planned. Here’s the Reader’s Digest version:

• 11 Celebrates 10 reading series – No. 11 Productions will be celebrating the 10 years of the Plays and Playwrights Series of Anthologies by reading 9 plays and 8 venues. See our homepage for details. And it’s FREE!
  
• Claire and the Ornithological Shadow – An original shadow play we’re creating at the very moment. Dec. 12, 13, 19, 20 @ 8pm and Dec. 14 @ 2pm. Venue: The Bushwick Starr.
  
• Jet of Blood or the Ball of Glass by Antonin Artaud – Our take on this unbelievable play by the father of Theatre of Cruelty. Presented as part of the FRIGID Festival in late February and early March.

So that’s our update. If you didn’t receive our newsletter and would like to, email us at no.11productions@gmail.com.
