'My First Time' to be Produced Internationally
|
Ken Davenport, producer of the Off-Broadway hits Altar Boyz and The Awesome 80s Prom, announced the release of the international production rights for My First Time (www.MyFirstTimeThePlay.com), the new play in the style of The Vagina Monologues featuring four actors in hysterical and heartbreaking stories about first sexual experiences written by real people…just like you.
Already on board to produce the show are Austria, Switzerland, Germany, Spain, France, Mexico, Israel, and Korea; more will be announced shortly, including Australia and Japan. A National Tour is currently being booked for the 2008-09 season.
"In 1996, a decade before blogging began, a website was created that allowed people to anonymously share their own true stories about their 'First Time.' The website became an instant phenomenon as over 40,000 stories poured in from around the globe that were silly, sweet, absurd, funny, heterosexual, homosexual, awkward, shy, sexy and everything in between. And now, these stories and the unique characters in them are all brought to life in My First Time," explain press notes.
Writer/director Ken Davenport is currently represented Off-Broadway and around the country by the 2005 Outer Critics Circle Award winner for Best Musical, Altar Boyz, which he co-conceived and produced (www.AltarBoyz.com), and The Awesome 80s Prom, which he created and directed (www.Awesome80sProm.com). A member of the BMI Librettist workshop, Ken is currently developing a musical version of the film Somewhere in Time for Broadway. More at www.DavenportTheatrical.com
