EACH AND EVERY THING Returning to The Marsh San Francisco, 5/29-7/18

The Marsh San Francisco announces the return of the wildly popular solo show by award-winning actor/playwright Dan Hoyle, EACH AND EVERY THING, a search for connection in the digital age. EACH AND EVERY THING was an instant hit with audiences and critics alike last Summer when it enjoyed a sold-out run and two extensions at The Marsh San Francisco, receiving the highest accolades from every news outlet, and winning the Bay Area Theatre Critics Circle Award for Outstanding Solo Show. Developed with Charlie Varon and Maureen Towey, and directed by Charlie Varon, EACH AND EVERY THING will play May 29 - July 18, with performances 8pm Fridays, 8:30pm Saturdays, and 5pm Sundays at The Marsh San Francisco MainStage Theater. For tickets ($20-$100), the public may visit www.themarsh.org or call 415-282-3055 between 1 - 4pm, Monday through Friday.

EACH AND EVERYTHING received the highest rating from the San Francisco Chronicle, which called it a "smartly constructed and highly entertaining, globe trotting 'slow-tech movement' embodiment of the essential need to prioritize face-to-face, real-world relationships." It was also called a "poignant, funny comment on the digital age" by the San Jose Mercury News. From a showdown with a violent felon in small-town Nebraska, to a childhood listening to anti-conformist rants in San Francisco; from the hard-scrabble corner boys of Chicago to the intellectual temple of Calcutta's famed coffeehouse; from a Digital Detox retreat in remote Northern California to an intimate confession in Manhattan, EACH AND EVERY THING finds Hoyle searching for true community, spontaneity, and wonder in a fractured and hyper-connected world. Since its run in San Francisco, the show has been performed in New York at Joe's Pub and is scheduled for runs in Los Angeles and Portland early next year.

Dan Hoyle's previous solo show The Real Americans, also directed by Charlie Varon, made its World Premiere at The Marsh San Francisco in 2010, where it ran for 18 months before touring to Joe's Pub in New York, The Painted Bride in Philadelphia, The Lensic in Santa Fe, Berkeley Repertory Theater, Cleveland Playhouse, Portland Center Stage, and The Park Hotel in Calcutta, India. It was dubbed "Best Solo Show" by SF Weekly, a Top Ten play by the San Francisco Chronicle, and was nominated for a Bay Area Theater Critics Circle award for Outstanding Solo Show. The New Yorker called it "smart, entertaining, funny, insightful, and surprising."

His solo show Tings Dey Happen, also helmed by Varon, premiered at The Marsh San Francisco and won the 2007 Will Glickman Award for Best New Play before running five months Off-Broadway in New York at The Culture Project, where it was nominated for a Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Solo Show. Tings Dey Happen, called "Funny and poignant. Engrossing. First-rate," by The New York Times, was based on Hoyle's experiences as a Fulbright Scholar living in the Niger Delta of Nigeria studying oil politics. In October 2009, Hoyle returned to Nigeria to perform the show in five Nigerian cities, sponsored by the U.S. State Department.

Charlie Varon is an artist-in-residence at The Marsh in San Francisco, where he has been writing, performing, directing and teaching for over 20 years. As collaborator/director, Varon has worked with performer Dan Hoyle since 2004, on his solo shows Circumnavigator, Tings Dey Happen and The Real Americans. As playwright/performer, Varon's award-winning shows - all created in collaboration with David Ford - have enjoyed extended runs at The Marsh and traveled around the country. These include Rush Limbaugh in Night School (1994), The People's Violin (2000), Rabbi Sam (2009), and his current hit comedy, Feisty Old Jew, which has been extended at The Marsh Berkeley through May 16.

Maureen Towey received a 2013 TCG Leadership U Fellowship with Berkeley Rep, a 2009 Princess Grace/Baryshnikov Arts Center Work-in-Progress Award, a 2007 Princess Grace Fellowship, and a 2006 Fulbright Scholarship in South Africa. Towey directed Finding Penelope, a site-specific adaptation of the Odyssey in Milwaukee, Wisconsin - this groundbreaking process inspired both a documentary and a book (currently under commission). Other highlights include Throwing Bones (Sojourn Theatre), Swallow What You Steal (ubom, South Africa), Gruesome Playground Injuries, Animals Out of Paper, I Have Before Me a Remarkable Document Given to Me by a Young Lady from Rwanda (Boise Contemporary Theatre), and many others. She has assisted Michael Rohd (GOOD), Brett Bailey (Opening ceremonies, Harare International Arts Festival, Zimbabwe) and JoAnne Akalaitis (Beckett Shorts, New York Theatre Workshop, starring Baryshnikov).

EACH AND EVERY THING features sound design by David Hines, lighting design by Erich Blazeski, and original music by Mark Weiner.
