Reworking Wisteria

Aaaand we’re back.  While you were gone (and I was at rehearsal) our production hit a huge new twist.  Are you ready for this, reader?! (I don’t think you are. Sit back. This is big. Bigger than my wisteria creating, even.)  Ok here goes:

WE HAVE A NEW SCRIPT!

“What? How can this be?” <–(That was your internal monologue. Nice delivery by the way, I heard the shock.)

I KNOW! It’s shocking, but true. And exactly how it can be is this, reader:  Our director, the aforementioned one Joseph DeMita, was contacted by none other than Molly Smith Metzler herself!(She’s the playwright. For those of you who ignore our lovely graphic that lives yonder–>)

After some talk involving her people and our people, a new script was offered to us.  Do you know that this means, reader? This MEANS that The F.U.D.G.E. Theatre Company will be the FIRST to perform the REVISED EDITION of Training Wisteria… in Boston. Yes folks. Another premiere. Kinda. (”Oooh. Aaah.” Yes, I know. I said it was big.)

So, after a lot of shuffling between scripts and reorganizing all our original efforts, I am pleased to offer you that astounding piece of news! Oh, and don’t worry.  The wisteria is still there. (I know you were worried. I was too.)

That’s all for now, but not-to-worry, I’ve got your back in case we take any more crazy twists and turns in the mounting of this play.  Let’s just hope we don’t get a call from Molly saying she wants Rhododendrons to be the new metaphor of her play instead. I do NOT want to make rhododendrons. (shudder.)
