A Crucible

Well.  That's awkward.  It seems I dropped off the face of the earth again.  It was for good reasons, though, I promise! December was filled with Our Bar, then the Frameworks 3rd Annual Christmas Show, Christmas itself, and...oh yeah! The show I've been in rehearsals for since just after Thanksgiving.

A Crucible.

No, no.  Not the one you read in high school English class.  That was THE Crucible.  This is A Crucible.

"A CRUCIBLE follows the high school drama club at Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception as it sets out to stage Arthur Miller's classic play, The Crucible. Conflicts erupt when ideas about sexuality and contemporary performance begin to influence the young actors and their POV about the production. The young women and men, fueled by a passion for black magic and avant garde tropes, stage a coup to build a performance that addresses their own lives. This original play re-appropriates the writing of Arthur Miller, as well as Marilyn Monroe and Andy Warhol's diaries, John Huston's film The Misfits and other texts. A CRUCIBLE is a darkly comic play about the power and problems of performance."

Between rehearsals and working on my Bah-ston and Barbados accents (yup.  That's right.  This girl has a KILLER Barbados accent), I kind of let the blog slide.  But you forgive me, right?  And you're going to come see it, right? 

Not Sold yet?  How about this great review from nytheatre.com?

OR!

Maybe because nycstagereview called me "poignant"?

PERHAPS!

The fact that Backstage says, "Rebecca Kopec Shines..." THAT'S RIGHT!
