Synopsis:Confessions of a Counter Culture Diva //Where Hair meets Rent, meets Angeles in America.
When Ru Paul was but a twinkle in his father's eye, drag queens grew hipster beards, and radical fairies lived in communes outside the box of gender specific definitions. In a land long before the tech revolution, San Francisco's Counter Culture Diva braved the glittery shores of this magical era with pride and outrageous rebellion through her camp performance.
The Musical: Confessions of a Counter Culture Diva, introduces self-proclaimed, 'gay widow' Grace Tempesta on stage in 1988's performance piece that flashes back to her escaping New Jersey via a Greyhound and landing on the shores of San Francisco's first gay pride day, circa 1970, on her 18th birthday.
Among a brew of outrageous theater queens Grace finds her true calling and falls for one of her many new roommates, the charming bi-sexual Tommy. Only weeks of living outside the box of gender-bending disco days and nights she discovers she's carrying the baby of a black boyfriend she left back in Jersey.
When Grace reveals her delicate condition to her Jersey family, her father disowns her but with the support of her new unlikely family and the crazy love of Tommy, Grace finds a safe place to fall.
Grace vamps through this musical comedy/tragedy becoming a mother to her precious bi-racial daughter Viva, and a Diva to be reckoned with until the first appearance of AIDS bringing on the long season of tears, demanding she grow up for real.
By the third act, Grace mends the relationship with her father as he passes away and she cares for Tommy and the many members of her community that succumb to the AIDS pandemic. As Grace faces the music and buries the bodies, she reinvents a new life as a surviving Gay Widow.

Mark Brown is an award-winning writer. His play Around the World in 80 Days has literally been produced around the world. It's been produced Off-Broadway twice, all across the US, Canada, England, South Africa, Turkey, India, and Bangladesh – it's even been produced in the Himalayas. It has been on many "Best Of" lists, has garnered many awards, and was twice one of American Theatre magazine's Top Ten Most Produced Plays.
He's currently working with Paul Mirkovich, his collaborator on Enchilada, on a 1960s British Invasion-inspired musical adaptation of the novel Tom Jones.
Tom Jones, his non-musical adaptation of the bawdy Henry Fielding novel, received its world premiere in 2014 and has been called "Clever, silly and highly theatrical!"
Love, the Cracksman is a throwback to the romantic comedies of Cary Grant and Myrna Loy and is currently available for a world premiere.
Mark's play The Trial of Ebenezer Scrooge has been called "a sequel worthy of Dickens' approval," "a worthy new entry into the holiday canon," and is the number one selling show in the Taproot Theatre's history.
His musical China – The Whole Enchilada was named Outstanding Musical of the 2008 New York International Fringe Festival and has been called "funny, smart, surprisingly deep, and very enjoyable."
His adaptation of The Little Prince set box office records at the Hippodrome Theatre and the Orlando Theatre Project.
Mark's play Poe – Deep Into That Darkness Peering hasn't won a thing but is a darn good play and should be produced more often.

Paul Edward Schultz
http://mennymila.blogspot.com
I was an editor and writer at the New York Daily News for 26 years, and have worked at Newsweek, Newsday and Scholastic as well. I am an alum of the BMI Musical Theater Workshop and have written five musicals, four of which were produced. Two of them were in the NYC Fringe Fest (2009, 2010). The 2009 show, "Eat, Drink and Be Merry," got decent notices (4 stars in TimeOut). It was about food, and followed Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden thru to modern day NYC. My earlier music background is in rock and country; I played in bands, basically.
As far as my tastes go, I like a lot of stuff: rock, country, pop, R&B, folk, early music such as Renaissance polyphony and John Dowland, classic American songbook, and show tunes. I particularly like catchy, melodic songs and the use of humor. So I like Rodgers and Hammerstein, Frank Loesser, the Beatles, the Ramones, Mann and Weil, Goffin-King and Frank Zappa. As far as newer musical theater writers, I like Joe Iconis, Jason Robert Brown and Lin-Manuel Miranda. I also respect the Swedish producers and artists, like Max Martin, and Per Gessle of Roxette. One of my faves that not many people know is Moon Martin. I live in Queens, NY.
Here are the shows for which I'm looking for collaborators:
1.	"Where There's a Will," musical comedy based on Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing." Music and lyrics are about half written, book is about half written. It's set in academia, and the music style so far is folk-rock. I'm looking for a composer and librettist. Totally willing to work with composer-lyricist too.
2.	"Rainbow Dreams" or "Hopelessly Caucasian," musical comedy in the vein of "Memphis," "Dirty Dancing." Set in a sort of parallel universe of pre-Beatles 1960s. Music style is rock/pop/R&B. Protagonists are a pair of Brill Building songwriters, Mutt and Jeff team: African American lyricist and skinny white dude composer. Rough draft of libretto is done but it needs help. About half the songs are done. Looking for composer and librettist. Willing to work with composer-lyricist as well.
3.	"Gruff," family musical based on folk tale Three Billy Goats Gruff. This was developed through the BMI Musical Theater Workshop where it began as a 10-minute musical. Music is done, and there's a rough outline of book. Need librettist to complete the book, hopefully using songs that are written. Music style is melodic show-tune/Broadway. Here's a Dropbox link to a concert of the songs: https://www.dropbox.com/s/szekilun5gw5wyg/Gruff%205%3A2%3A15.mp4?dl=0
I'm willing to send samples of the above, or previous work. pschultz1@nyc.rr.com

http://ajturner.net
I've only been writing for ten years. I'm an author, playwright/librettist, and lyricist. On the author front, I've published four sci-fi novels and one non-fiction book. I have completed one additional sci-fi novel which is in final editing, and about 2/3 of another that is in draft form. I've written the book and lyrics for two full-length musicals, "Wisteria" and "Lube: A Modern Love Story." The former was a collaboration with long-time friend and musician, Faith Page (http://faithpage.net), and the latter was with Brandon Bowerman, a second-year music student at UCLA. The book for Wisteria was never completed, and it's a project I'll get back to someday. Lube is finished and ready for staging. Since this is my first time, I'm sure there will be a lot of work to do on Lube before it actually opens, and I'm completely open to collaborating with a producer or theater company to get it ready for its world premiere.
Attached below are three additional songs from Lube, apart from what I uploaded for the New Voices project. The first is sung by homophobic Mary who is complaining that Andy, who is under a lot of pressure because his best friend David is depressed and suicidal, has been acting up a bit. The second is sung my Manny's girlfriend Lizze once she realizes what has been going on the whole time -- that her boyfriend is really gay, but is deathly afraid of acknowledging that fact or coming out of the closet. The final one is sung by 'fire and brimstone' Pastor Baker, who preaches eternal damnation for homosexuals, to Manny who has come to him seeking advice about his 'gay friend.'

Alexander Zwick
Alexander Zwick is a composer for musical theater, but has not yet had commercial success. His style tends to be rock/pop but also creates pieces that go beyond those limits. He fills his time as an elementary school teacher who licenses school musicals he's written to teachers and schools across the country.
Alexander Zwick grew up in the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles. After studying Political Science at UCLA, he went on to work for several years as an assistant and as a freelance writer for various small film and television projects. Realizing this was not the path for him, he left the entertainment business to become a 4th grade teacher, which he realized gave him more fulfillment than he'd ever imagined. This also gave him time to develop his true passion: writing music. He started a band, released a couple CDs, and played various venues in the LA area including the world famous Whisky A-go-go. When that had run its course, he began to focus on writing musicals, mostly for his students to perform, but some for which he imagined on Broadway. Today, he continues to focus on those big dreams, but has found a niche licensing his musicals to schools all across the country.

Who Will You Invite To Sit At Your Table?
We were all humbled that night as we stared into the faces of the scariest looking people and realized that God loved them as much as He loved us. It was humbling, not in a dividing way, but a unifying way.
How do we love these repeat offenders in the same way that Jesus loves us? How do I love this hurtful person, this enemy, in the same way that Jesus loves me?
Who are you trying to please? Are you entertaining because you have the best house for entertaining and the best dishes? Or are you entertaining because you want to show the love of Jesus to everyone who comes through your door?
Let the fear of perfection and self-confidence flee from your mind. Perfection is our own worst enemy. Perfection is deeply rooted in pride. It is wanting others to see us a certain way by our own doing. I will talk about perfection and pride as we continue this series, but for now, let's talk about ways to keep your entertaining simple.
One of the greatest ways to connect with someone is to invite her over to your home. As you host others, I have a simple checklist for you to prepare your heart for having someone in your home. The whole goal is to be a reflection of Christ and show love to the person who is in your home.


Ever since my very first Disney event, I've dreamt of visiting Pixar Animation Studios in San Francisco, CA! My love for Pixar runs deeps because, being a late-80's baby, I grew up with Pixar. Toy Story came out just after I turned 7-years-old. It was the perfect age to see this film because I was old enough to really understand the storyline and just young enough to try to catch my toys coming to life after I left the room. I'm not sure how old I was when I realized that toys didn't really have personalities but I'm sure it was difficult day for me.
After Toy Story came more of my childhood favorites: A Bug's Life, Monsters Inc, Finding Nemo, Wall-E, Up, Toy Story 2, Toy Story 3… the list literally goes on because there isn't a bad Pixar movie. I cannot wait for the days of Pixar marathons with my baby boy. He has no idea what he's in for. Oh, and don't even get my started on the Pixar Shorts! Bao hit me deep and Piper is a personal favorite. I digress.
I'm Going to Pixar Animation Studios in San Francisco, CA!
So, thanks to my friends over at Disney, I'm going on an adventure. From 4/2 to 4/3, I will be at the Pixar Animation Studios with Toy Story 4 on the agenda! I am literally crying as I write this because not only was Pixar on my bucket list, Toy Story is an all-time favorite. I have all of the feels because the nostalgia has been heavy ever since I visited Toy Story Land last summer! Meeting Buzz, chatting with a toy soldier, and screaming, "Howdy!" to Woody made me feel like a kid again. Now, I have the absolute pleasure of learning how the filmmakers created Pixar's newest film, Toy Story 4.
I'm not sure if you remember, but a couple years ago I went to San Francisco for the very first time to visit Skywalker Ranch and Lucasfilm HQ. This adventure will be much different, but just as epic! Since this is such an early press event, we will not be interviewing the cast. We will, however, be interviewing the talented behind-the-scenes creators for Toy Story 4, like Director, Josh Colley and Producers, Jonas Rivera & Producer Mark Nielsen. We will also be chatting with Set Supervisors, Graphic Artists, Animators, Story Supervisors, and so much more!
Our visit will end with a tour of the Pixar Archives with Toy Story's Archival Story, which I've heard cannot be filmed – so you'll have to live vicariously through my upcoming blog posts recounting my experience.
I hope you'll follow along as I find my joy at Pixar Animation Studios. I will be sharing as much as I can from 4/2/19 to 4/3/19 on Instagram, Instagram Stories, Facebook, and Twitter! If you want real-time updates, Instagram Stories is the best place to follow along!
What kind of coverage would you like to see from my Pixar Animation Studios adventure?
PS. It's important to note that this will be my very first time traveling since my son was born and I'm absolutely terrified but also really ready for a break!

"This day was filled with everything that was "them". Their friends, their family, their love... Katie wore her mother's wedding gown and veil. Her ring and band were filled with diamonds that belonged to their family. As she dressed, her sister, mom, and grandmother helped her - three generations together to celebrate the union of two souls meant for each other. When it was time for Katie to walk down the aisle, I turned to Josh and watched his smile light up from that moment he saw her, and tears filled his eyes to see his bride - arms wrapped around her dad's - a moment they've waited their whole lifetime for.
On their wedding day, one of Katie's bridesmaids had been joking she'd be wearing some bright red glasses down the aisle, and Katie warned her that she better not. Well, as Katie was getting into her dress, ALL the bridesmaids snuck out an identical pair of those bright red glasses! The look on Katie's face says it all! And if that wasn't enough, their officiant decided to pull out some authentic The Princess Bride – hat and accent and everything! Everyone was CRACKING. UP."

Critics Consensus: Cohesively summing up a bizarre and audacious first season while offering a prologue for the series to come, Preacher's finale feels especially well-earned.
Critic Consensus: Cohesively summing up a bizarre and audacious first season while offering a prologue for the series to come, Preacher's finale feels especially well-earned.
In the first-season finale, it's the day the entire town has been waiting for, as Jesse tries to follow through on his promise to get answers from Heaven.
The season finale of AMC's supernatural comic-book adaptation Preacher was everything we wanted it to be; funny, cathartic and gleefully destructive.
By the end of "Call and Response," it honestly felt like the entire season was set-up, to introduce the real series to come.
[This episode] might be the most horrific installment of "Preacher" yet, not only because of the shocking violence that overruns Annville, but because of the existential question at its core.
You still have Cassidy and Tulip, two of the most electric characters anywhere on television, together with an all-powerful and complicated protagonist.
May the people of Annville rest in peace and Jesse Custer drive off never to return. Good riddance.
Does a great job building anticipation for its next season.
So ends this chapter of Jesse Custer's story, one that offered plenty of surprising moments for both readers of the comic and new viewers alike.
"Call and Response" as a whole was illustrative of a season of TV that never entirely figured out what story it was telling, what its focus should be, or how best to spend its time in this particular time and place of the main characters' lives.
And I'm happy to say that Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, and Sam Catlin's adaptation of Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon's acclaimed DC/Vertigo comic sticks the landing.

I've been doing a lot of reading on networks / networking over the past few days.
As well as being interesting, this reading has also helped to refresh my knowledge of how networks operate – why we use this switch instead of that hub and other things most people wouldn't know, or want to know, about.
The last time I really did any reading about networks was at college, 6 years ago, no wonder I'd forgotten a lot of it.
This refresher has meant that, although I'm working with networks a lot of the time at work, I now feel much more confident as to why the network is working in the way it is rather than knowing it just works.

Legally Weird/
Woman Gives Cop Fake Name, Gets Arrested on Warrants
By Daniel Taylor, Esq. on September 30, 2014 | Last updated on March 21, 2019
A Boston woman who tried to outsmart police by giving them a fake name ended up being arrested on a very real warrant out for a person with the name she had provided.
Tina Lunn was approached by a Boston transit police officer after being observed smoking a cigarette despite several posted "no smoking" signs, reports WXFT-TV. Lunn, who was wanted for warrants in two different Massachusetts counties, allegedly provided a fake name and fake date of birth to the officer.
Unfortunately for her, even her fictitious alter-ego seems to have criminal proclivities.
Ruse Maintained Throughout Booking Process
Despite being arrested under her assumed name, Lunn maintained the charade throughout the booking process, perhaps hoping that her assumed identity was facing fewer criminal charges than her real identity. Among the charges faced by the actual Lunn: assault and battery, kidnapping, and larceny.
Police eventually wised up to Lunn's real identity. In addition to the charges she was already facing, she is now also facing charges of furnishing a false name to law enforcement and smoking in a transportation terminal.
False Name, Real Problems
Lunn is just the latest criminal whose fake name scheme ended up being too clever by half. In 2012, a 15-year-old Texas girl was returned home after being deported by U.S. Immigration authorities to Colombia when the fake name she provided law enforcement ended up being the name of a person in the country illegally.
Other criminals have a harder time pulling off the deception, such as the Idaho man whose master plan to disguise his identity was foiled when a police officer found the man's real name tattooed on his own forearm.
One of the strangest cases of fake identity in recent years, however, has to be the 34-year-old Texas woman who was arrested after posing as a 15-year-old sophomore at a local high school. The woman was described as "an attentive student, respectful" by her school principal, who said no one at the school suspected the woman wasn't a teen. Her true identity was discovered only after the woman who had taken her in grew suspicious and contacted police.
