* Meanwhile the same group, Theatre Arlo, is now preparing to present “Man Saved by Condiments!” a play written by Mary Jo Pehl, based on the true story of a man whose car went off a bridge, broke his hip, and survived for five days by eating snow and the packets of condiments he found under his seat. (The production will be directed our pal Bill Stiteler).
The group has started a fundraising effort at Kickstarter to raise money to bring the show to New York City in February and March of 2012.
Also, Frank Conniff is making a guest appearance on a web show called “Space Hospital.”
Can Trace and Bill come judge the next meeting I attend?

Wow, I’m amazed that the condiments story is real. Maybe they should get Heinz to be a corporate sponsor or something.

PowerPoint Karaoke sounds like it was inspired by Dana Carvey’s one genuinely funny scene in “Clean Slate”.

Frank looks good in “Space Hospital”.
Does anyone else think the bald, bespectacled “ship’s commander” is a doppelganger for the “Percy Dovetonsils” scientist (and his brother) in “Monnster A-Go Go?”

the presenters have never seen it before, and the slides are complete nonsense!
How is that different from any other PowerPoint presentation?

By the way, Phillip Andrew Bennet Low is just one person (though he’s certainly prolific enough for two), and is — along with Joseph and Courtney — a member of the Rockstar Storytellers (Ari is a great storyteller as well, but may have a harder time with the “rockstar” label, he looks more like the rockstar’s accountant). Anyway, I may have to head to Uptown Monday night
