Hair - It Gets Better

Another one for La Gaga:

This one from students your age in Madson WI. We have been talking for a long while about using our other musical and dance talents here at SOS. I would love to see the EC and a roster of actors make something like this for ourselves. Don't talk it - DO IT!

Texting While Walking

Some simple texting etiquette. Part joke, but it does ring true at times. EVEN in rehearsals (Like whoever's cell phone was on eternal vibrate at yesterdays rehearsal!!!!) A possible comic sketch in here somewhere??

Lionel Richie's Hello @ the movies

And for something totally silly - for all you film buffs out there!

"Hello - Is It Me You're Looking For?"

Second Class Citizens

In our quest to develop new material touching on the divisive topic of Gay Tolerance, here is a new posting which shows a timeline of pivotal moments in the struggle over decades. Some shocking and brutal, others very positive and uplifting. This is a filmaker's first reel of clips that he is hoping to make into a full documentary feature called Second Class Citizens. Definite food for thought.

Our Own Ashley

Here is our own Ashley in a music video she made with her cute BF before the holidays. Tell her how special and talented she is!!!!

Alpenglow - "Mountain Man"

Shadow Puppets for Tolerance

This is a new music video from a Band called Bye June that supports LGBT Tolerance and uses world renown puppet artist Sati Achath to tell their story. More power of theater outside the box:

Two new posts today:

The First from Burning Man festival last year. It is a huge community based arts festival in the Black Rock Desert of NV where people come to express themselves for a week each year. And then disappear without leaving a trace of themselves after. It is all about self expression, being unique and what they bring to the world.

This is their take on Dr. Suess.

This is a recent video from a favorite improv company in NYC called Improv Everywhere. They do some ridiculously silly things spontaneously. I added their link to our Blog. But this one I thought was a great idea and I would love to see us pick a place and just try it come spring and warmer weather. Check it Out!

Major Reason - why color-blind casting does not work on the Racism sketch

Check out this link from Lavender Magazine - about homeless youth and their plight. It is autobiographical and I am heavily considering using it is source material to bring a new monologue into the script
