Office update

Hello all. Things have been happening.

-Poker Night at the White House, our latest extravaganza of prime-time goodness, starts with previews on April 19th. (Created by Sean Benjamin, directed by Sean Daniels, with Neo ensemble members Jay Torrence and Noelle Krimm, plus the ever-trusty Luke Hatton. Find out how Warren G. Harding turned the Oval Office into his own personal playground. Drinking, gambling, women in closets. Come see the madness.) In preparation for this show, a giant life-size old man puppet arrived in a cardboard box. We gingerly took it out of its box and then, I swear to you, I had a hard time putting it back in its cardboard home. How would it breathe?

-I saw Mary in the show this past weekend. And now I pity the fool who hasn't yet caught an M. Fons edition of Too Much Light. She makes you clutch at your heart in a good way.

-We've been dutifully working on a brand-new Neo web site. Its shiny facade will be revealed to the world in a few weeks. We're trying, people. We're trying.

-We're submitting grant applications right and left so that we can continue to keep our doors flung wide open to the masses.

-On one of the nice, springy days last week, one of the office windows refused to stay open. Ian propped it with a Sprite can. Delicious!
