New York Theater
My friend Kareem Fahmy, a very talented theater director, has a double billing of two new works playing for those of you in New York:
One Sixteenth, by Rachel Schwartz:
“The music of Beethoven, Chopin, and Back is interwoven with a remarkable new monologue about a woman crushed by her hopes and dreams. One Sixteenth is a funny, touching play about the genesis of genius, a life of unrealized ambition, and an unrequited love so acute that a heart begins to break.”
And Love Dr. Mueller, adapted from the writings of Cookie Mueller:
“Writer, actress, mother, outlaw, fashion designer, go-go dancer, Dreamlander, witch-doctor… Cookie Mueller was a force of nature who blazed a trendsetting trail through the 60′s, 70′s, and 80′s, only to have her life cut short by AIDS. Love Dr Mueller is the first-ever play to tell Cookie’s amazing life story and is adapted directly from her writings.”
