This December, on the heels of the sold out run of Asi Wind's Concert of the Mind, Axis Theatre Company will present its beloved family holiday show, Seven in One Blow, or the Brave Little Kid. Adapted from the classic fairy tale by The Brothers Grimm, this interactive winter play is conceived by Axis and directed by Randy Sharp, who also wrote the adaptation and composed the music. Though the poignant tale was created for kids, the Axis production-which teases out some of the many plausible subtexts-resonates equally well for adults. All proceeds for the performance on Saturday, December 14 at 2:00 P.M. will be donated to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
Writers spend their entire careers, perhaps their entire lives, trying to find the right words. The perfect words. Those which will elevate their writing from something ordinary and dull to a lofty place among the great works of literary art. Some concepts, though, can't be so easily put into words. Cannot be defined or explained in any way that truly does them justice. Loves is one of those things and the attempt to put it into words is at the center of Tom Stoppard's The Real Thing, currently running at the Sandra Feinstein-Gamm Theatre.
Axis Theatre Company will remount Randy Sharp's critically lauded Last Man Club, having previously cancelled the final performance of the world premiere, on October 28, 2012, due to superstorm Sandy. The early closing was an eerie and ironic conclusion to a play about weather-related tragedy.
