Inspired by Percy Bysshe Shelley’s translation of Euripides’ Cyclops

 

The Satyrs:  an epic rock band comprised of shirtless goat men, desperate only for a drink and a shag.  The Cyclops:  a one-eyed, flesh-hungry monster – with a dash of Freddie Mercury. Odysseus:  a weary soldier, with ukulele, just trying to get home.  Put them all in a cave and you get Cyclops, hailed as a “thrilling freak show” (LA Times), and “genius” (NPR).  A “proud cousin” to Hedwig, it is guaranteed to melt your face off.

1 Date. 8 Minutes. 2 Lifetimes.
  Most people fantasize about a perfect future with the ideal mate. Marvin and Katie have much more realistic expectations. When they meet on a speed date, they let each other know exactly what to expect in the years to come.  It might not all be pretty -- but oddly enough, it might be pretty romantic.

“Fucking Hipsters!” is set in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and follows Lars (Brandon Wardell of “Catch Me if You Can”), lead-singer for the indie band Mark Twain’s Moustache. Lars is the hipster king: he has a successful music career, he’s idealistic and socially active, plus, he brews his own beer. Lars’ world is thrown into turmoil when he meets the young Korean-American spitfire Josie Harvey (Emily Borromeo) one night after a show. Josie immediately penetrates the hipster scene with her beauty, smarts and sexual aggressiveness. But bad luck follows Josie: her abusive ex-boyfriend drained her bank account and her apartment has termites. When she moves into The Moustache Loft to seek refuge, she throws Lars’ relationships with keyboardist Evangeline (Heather Robb of The Spring Standards ), and the inter-racial-gay-married-born-again rhythm section of Buck (Luke Smith) and Tomatoes (Kyle Lamar Mitchell) into turmoil. Will The Moustache...
