In this interview, Regina Eliot-Ramsey speaks with Geralyn about the Our Voices Together showcase, the ICWP, Playwright`s Platform and the Platform`s showcase, and Geralyn`s experience Off Broadway with Martha Mitchell.
Martha - When and Where
This past Sunday I announced that Geralyn will be performing Martha Mitchell just Off-Broadway in a bit over a week. Actually, did I even give the date? And I got the name of the theater wrong. It`s the West End Theater, 263 West 86th Street, NYC -...
Martha Mitchell in NYC
Geralyn will be taking Rosanna Yamagiwa Alfarro`s musical Martha Mitchell, in Mostly Her Own Words to the West End Theater in New York City April 19th.
StagePage.Info: Best Practice #2
G.L. had another reading of her play Best Practice. She has decided to have both a 10-minute, 2-character, version - this, when trimmed - and a longer version with five characters. This is a work-in-progress, read at Playwrights` Platform by experienced...

We recently stopped in at the Newton Community Access Cable studios to talk with Regina Ramsey about the latest production of G.L.`s Beyond Measure, which seems to be developing unexpected legs. Written for an character in her late 50s and another in...
UpDate!
I`ve just been told many Windows users - about 3/4 of our audience - cannot see the Chapter Art and Related Links I`ve been including with our shows. I thought I`d checked that, apparently not well enough. Here`s a link that will lead you to a page...
Best Practice
G.L. was told of a ten-minute play contest ... Must ... Enter! ... so she decided to adapt a portion of her latest play for it. Five characters were cut to two and a whole lot of scenes were removed. She brought it to her Newton Playwright`s group and...
StagePage.Info: Susanna Centlivre
This episode focuses on a play G.L. has been working on for ages, held back by a lack of available research material - despite nearly 20,000 references to Susanna Centlivre in a Google search. A section of what she has written to date was read at a...
StagePage.Info: More E-Mail
G.L. had a bunch of e-mails from students and educators. We found a few to answer on the show. We found room for a monologue from Fantasia for String Trio (Jonathan Donahue), and one from Beyond Measure (Geralyn Horton), and one from Conventional...

StagePage.Info: a Challenge
Larry wants to change the way theater is seen in Boston. Most importantly, he`d like to point many more of you towards going to the smaller theaters. The theaters that rent their spaces to companies that lack their own. He`d like help in Making it Happen.
StagePage.Info: Beyond Measure
We`ve had a busy week. Helping with a production in Palo Alto, California for next week - see Vagabond for the details - and finalizing a reading of G.L.`s latest in Boston at 7PM Sunday, the 8th. We`ll make sure the script gets posted to Stage Page as...
StagePage.Info: We`re BACK ! ! !
If you think you missed an episode last week, you`re only partly correct. We lost our house broadband for over three painful days and couldn`t have posted a show if we had on to post. We have been punished by a slight drop in our numbers. Good thing we...

StagePage.Info: Memorial Day
Nearly skipped this one. It`s a day for Vets like me to relax and enjoy life. Which I was doing at my son`s after-the-fact birthday bash when I got a chance to record some things. Couldn`t hold myself back.
