Berko review: FULLY COMMITTED @ Beck Center for the Arts
by Roy Berko 14 Nov '20

14 Nov '20

*•••••••••••••••••••••••••••* *Capsule judgment: A funny one-man show, Fully Committed, which leaves the viewer exhausted from Koester’s near frenetic un-hinged tour-de-force performance. It is a wonderful way to spend an hour getting away from pandemic stress and the world of angst. * *To read the entire review go to: **www.royberko.info* <http://www.royberko.info/>*. * *••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••*

THE MIRROR EFFECT by Oana Leuca - Thu, Nov 19 @ 7pm
by Playwrights Local 13 Nov '20

13 Nov '20

Playwrights Local Presents A Free Reading of a New Play THE MIRROR EFFECT Written by Oana Leuca Directed by Christine McBurney *Thursday, November 19 at 7:00 pm* *Presented Online via Zoom* INFO & ZOOM ACCESS http://www.playwrightslocal.org/fall-roundtable-series-2020/ FEATURING Tammy Shanley Lana Sugarman Sheena D. Robertson Heidi Hackney Nadia Tarnawsky Samantha Cocco Molly McFadden SYNOPSIS The Mirror Effect presents Amanda Reis, a self-searching female writer who explores her inner life through language and disguise. Her story is inspired by the lives and work of other female artists (Sylvia Plath, Virginia Woolf, Anne Sexton, Marylin Monroe, etc.). Her poetic monologue is an astronaut’s shout in space, a place where sound waves can’t travel. She is a clown afraid of clowns, an actress trying to free herself from her persona. ABOUT THE PLAYWRIGHT Oana Leuca is a Romanian-born poet and playwright. She immigrated to the USA in 2018 and is currently pursuing her MFA in playwriting through the NEOMFA. At the 2020 NEOMFA Playwrights Festival, convergence-continuum produced one of her plays, Autopoiesis. In April 2020, she won the Leonard Trawick Scholarship in creative writing.
