  Speaker 6: Syah, yeah, I'm sorry.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: This is well.
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: Also, can I just say, like, right off the bat,
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: like working on a solo show can be so isolating, right,
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: it can be the most isolating experience and unless you
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: have a director like bounce things off of like, it's
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: just you and the work all day long. And so
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: to see other people who are going through this city.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: It's so good. I love books. I always say I
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: always say, who's my biggest biggest critic? My journal? There,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: I'm like, who's my second biggest critic?
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: All my tech cues, Yes, it's.
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: My biggest critic.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: My cue lab file huge.
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: I think my biggest critic is probably Jesus Christ.
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah, whoa Christ critic?
• 2:44
  Speaker 6: Christ? Is your critic.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: He doesn't.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: He's not with you.
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: Oh he is with me, is with me all the time.
• 2:50
  Speaker 6: And as someone who you know, sort of going into
• 2:53
  Speaker 6: this journey and sort of making my own show, sort
• 2:56
  Speaker 6: of telling me story and sort of being a vulnerable
• 2:59
  Speaker 6: in that way, it's it's really crazy to sort of
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: have this experience and to think to yourself as you're
• 3:06
  Speaker 6: on stage and you're thinking, Wow, that's my purpose. Literally chills,
• 3:13
  Speaker 6: I know, And that's God.
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: Sometimes I feel like a theater magic work for me personally.
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: I think I think the work is like living for sure.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: It's work for sure.
• 3:23
  Speaker 7: The audience too.
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: Theater aspect of it.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, and I just want to say thank you,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Like we were joking around for you to bring us
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: to a like for me, for you to bring me
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: to a place that reminded me of the importance of
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: what we are doing as individuals. Really reminded me the
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: importance of what we're doing. Ye, the beauty and the
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: art and the I mean Dionysus, you know, to pay
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: homage to the Greek god himself.
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: The god of theater and tradition.
• 3:53
  Speaker 8: Yes, yes, but thank you and wine and why did
• 3:57
  Speaker 8: you have more to say all.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: That I did, but it's all right. I just wanted to.
• 4:01
  Speaker 6: Piggyback off that for a second. You know, you sort
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: of mentioned dan Isis and although we do kind of
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: in terms of theater and sort of like the old
• 4:11
  Speaker 6: world and sort of like you know, you think about
• 4:13
  Speaker 6: like the old like Roman Greek choruses and stuff like that,
• 4:16
  Speaker 6: but at the same time, I do I do kind
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: of want to steer away from talking about like other
• 4:22
  Speaker 6: deities totally because I do think just if I could
• 4:26
  Speaker 6: just I just wanted to say that, like, in terms
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: of telling a story and being on stage by yourself
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: and being one directed with source, that is sort of
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: the main energy at play. That is sort of like
• 4:40
  Speaker 6: the drop in story, right, And if you're in the
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: drop in story, then you're in the drop in phase.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: If I could just say too, like, and I totally
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: respect your faith, but to be honest, I don't know.
• 4:52
  Speaker 6: It's not about faith.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: It's about source, Okay, So I respect your source.
• 4:56
  Speaker 7: But for relationship, so I respect your relationship.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: There's just a lot of them, So I think I
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: want to leave open room space for that, if I.
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: Can ask you for a second, because I'm the kind
• 5:04
  Speaker 6: of person I'm just so like just so like curious
• 5:07
  Speaker 6: about people.
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: That's so, yeah, that's interesting.
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm a curious little kitten.
• 5:14
  Speaker 6: I can ask, I know, but I'm speaking if I
• 5:16
  Speaker 6: could ask, what is your show about?
• 5:19

• 12:11
  Speaker 1: is Spencer Ruffian and my show is called own Nuts.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: It's kind of a crazy show about the exploration of
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: like nuts, and I use nuts on stage kind of
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: like show and ultimately really it's like this funny like
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: clown show about like nuts. But really what it's about
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: is like, am I straight?
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 12:33
  Speaker 7: Because you read about clown classes, right?
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: I read about clown classes. That sounds so fun, but
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: I couldn't afford it because headshots and like acting classes
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: and comercial classes and so I couldn't afford it. So
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: I was like, I will take it by doing. I
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: will do my own show to take a clown class,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: because like that's la, that's like the grind set. That's
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: you need to like.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: When you want to learn a language and you have
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: to go to like a nut their country and just
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: like fall into it.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So like my show is like ultimately like am
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: I straight? Because it's like a question I've had for
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: a long time and the good the good or bad news?
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Is I am straight?
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: Like yeah, oh my god, you spoiled the egg.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Well, like it's like the spoiler helps.
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: You can say, can I give you a compliment? Your
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: stage is so messy after thank you? Do you shower
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: on the floor?
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: It is covered in any imagine nutshells covered in loop.
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: And that's like your skin, like you are cad.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I kind of like an ugly little gremlin creature
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: covered in like puss and stuff like that that discovers
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: a nut and it just goes but zoinkers from there
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: and the things you.
• 13:47
  Speaker 7: Ask the audience to do I've never seen anyone ask no.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: The best thing about my shows is one, you're gonna
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: see my penis. Two, I'm gonna make somebody in the
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: audience so deeply uncomfortable they'll question their own sanity. And
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: three at one point at the end of the show,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: you'll be moved like that's again.
• 14:06
  Speaker 6: I really liked the opening scene when you kind of
• 14:09
  Speaker 6: hatch out of that egg. Yes, I thought that.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Was really beautiful because like for me, that was like
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: my that was the question, this looming question, hatching out
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: of the egg? Am I straight?
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: Can I ask what the like what the significance of
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: making the audience member the nut chugger?
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: Like, I just think that's funny, Like like it just.
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: Feels weird to give one audience member like all this
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: bucket of nuts.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, to chug there the chug nut chugger, And it's
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: like hard because it's like big hazel nuts, Like they
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: can't chug a hazel nut.
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: Have you ever had someone say no to being the
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: nut chugging?
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's awkward.
• 14:44
  Speaker 7: Does that happen?
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: It's so funny it happened once. I know you can't
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: say no. What did you do Yeah, I said, I
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: gave it to them anyway, and they loved it, I think.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: And then so everyone else has been chugging nuts. Everybody
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: else's kind of then sat there going like what do
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: I do?
• 14:59
  Speaker 6: And I what if someone's allergic to nuts?
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: Chugging a nuts? What chugged? Oh?
• 15:08
  Speaker 5: This is you playing like the closet version of yes
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: do I like?

  Speaker 6: Everyone's getting I just sort of feel so like moved
• 15:59
  Speaker 6: by your story nice and I just I mean, it
• 16:01
  Speaker 6: must be really really hard to like question your sexuality
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: like that, you know what I mean, like really really hard.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: I felt like the process was super vulnerable, and.
• 16:09
  Speaker 6: Like it's just beautiful, like real really vulnerable.
• 16:12
  Speaker 7: It's amazing you found at the end you're not.
• 16:13
  Speaker 6: Gay, Yeah, to sort of come right back around like yeah, like.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: Sometimes like when you ask a question, you already know
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: the answer. But I had to do all that soul
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: searching because I feel like for my career had been
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: like so much better if I was by.
• 16:28
  Speaker 6: Yeah, well queer is really like in right now really so.
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: One person shows Yeah, it would make the whole process
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: so much easier, really, you know, the whole solo show
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: process so much easier.
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 16:40
  Speaker 7: What I keep finding is that the appetite for watching
• 16:44
  Speaker 7: people talk about.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Being by is really huge huge.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: People are excited when it's brought up at any sort
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: of show, and they love when they dive into it.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Because it's Yeah.
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: My favorite part though, is when you finally say that
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: you are not gay, and if the nutshrug is finished
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: with the bucket of nuts at the bottom of the
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: nut bucket, it says not get.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: So you could get it spoiled earlier.
• 17:06
  Speaker 6: You have to to get through all of the nuts
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: to figure out, like where.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: It was my journey, Like I had to get through
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: all of the nuts to realize I'm straight. That's amazing, Like,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: I thought that was so cool.
• 17:16
  Speaker 6: It was really beautiful.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: That actually came to me in a dream. Well, like
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: I would. I would I would like the idea that
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: it came to me in a dream, If that makes sense.
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, like that, I would like, Like, I think that
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: would be a cool idea that.
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: The idea of it being in a dream, Well to
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: be if I had a dream like this, that's a
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: dream itself.
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: Dream, that's a day dream. Thank you, that's a day dream.
• 17:44
  Speaker 6: Gave me in a day dream, because every every thought
• 17:48
  Speaker 6: is a dream within itself, and every thought is sort.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Of a is a prayer to sorce I'm sorry, I'm
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: taking up too much space right now. One of you
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: have to introduce yourself.
• 18:00
  Speaker 6: Okay, Okay, you got this. I'm sorry, I'm just like
• 18:07
  Speaker 6: kind of nervous. It's okay if I go right, yes, yes,
• 18:12
  Speaker 6: this is your Okay. My name is Sydney Keivler and
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: mothhemer and uh and my one woman show my One
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: Girl Show, One Lady show, I guess I should say,
• 18:26
  Speaker 6: is called Bully question Mark, and it's about the fact
• 18:30
  Speaker 6: that a lot of people that I went to school
• 18:33
  Speaker 6: with do claim that I was a very violent bully
• 18:36
  Speaker 6: to them. I don't necessarily remember it that way. If
• 18:42
  Speaker 6: if you were to push me up against a wall,
• 18:44
  Speaker 6: and that sort of be my answer, And so it's
• 18:48
  Speaker 6: sort of it's sort of an exploration of lost memory
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: and sort of an exploration of grief.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 18:58
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's just touching me and of finding you know,
• 19:01
  Speaker 6: those that those that think you bully are sometimes just
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: bullying themselves and it has nothing to do with you.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Literally.
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I will play just so just because I you know,
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: play the devil in my show, because I was saying
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: this for a bit, I want to play Devil's advocate
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: a little bit here.
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: Of course, this is interesting.
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: Oh oh, do it as your Devil's Advocate character.
• 19:22
  Speaker 7: Devil's advocate, I'm thet is.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: The devil gay, the Devil's gay in mind his advocate
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: is also gay.
• 19:32
  Speaker 5: The advocate is also did you use Alexander technique for that?
• 19:36
  Speaker 6: I did, Yeah, I could tell you, you know I
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: did as well.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: Amazing, So I just want.
• 19:41
  Speaker 6: There's also a singing aspect as well, and then at
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: the end I do an interpretive ribbon dance about the
• 19:46
  Speaker 6: first time I got my period.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: Right, So just real quickly, thank you for Devil's Advocate, Right,
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: Like you say, like you you portray the people who
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: are accusing you of bullying you, but you portray them
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: in a way that if I was that person, I
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: think I might perceive it as bullying.
• 20:03
  Speaker 6: Well, so I portrayed the people that have come forward
• 20:05
  Speaker 6: in the last ten years or so that have come
• 20:06
  Speaker 6: forward and have said that I was a bully. I
• 20:09
  Speaker 6: portrayed them as dirty little.
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: Rats, right, So like maybe, like you, when you read
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: the deposition, can you do that?
• 20:15
  Speaker 6: So the first rats, so I'm in sort of like
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: this New York alleyway when I was in theater school,
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: and so it's called Rat number one for those of
• 20:24
  Speaker 6: you that have seen it's it's the rat number one piece.
• 20:26
  Speaker 6: And so when Rat number one comes on and they're like, yeah,
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: I can't let.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Me die.
• 20:35
  Speaker 6: Day, and so that sort of signals that, you know,
• 20:41
  Speaker 6: you go to school, maybe maybe you think someone's being
• 20:43
  Speaker 6: a bully to you just because they're blond, and just
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: because their dad is a dentist, and I was blonde
• 20:50
  Speaker 6: and my my dad was My.
• 20:52
  Speaker 5: Dad was a dentist. My dad was for real the
• 20:56

  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, and it's crazy. You wrote truth.
• 21:34
  Speaker 6: I did reade truth, and so you know then that
• 21:36
  Speaker 6: sort of brings me back to you know, my relationship
• 21:40
  Speaker 6: like God and my relationship and faith of faith and sours.
• 21:45
  Speaker 6: I call it sours because I do want to be

  Speaker 1: is all exposed with? Like I always say a solo
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: show is more like an exposed wound than a bruce.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: I can always say that.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I have, I'm called me and my producers were
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: calling it the goth girl show, Like instead of a
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: one girl, a one woman show, it's a one goth
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: girl show, one girl just a little because like I
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: don't know if anyone listens at home, but fringes kind
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: of like there's a lot of marketing behind it, and
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: there's like what makes yours different? Right, Like there's so
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: many different shows. Yeah, and my show's pretty simple. It's
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: a car play. So you get in the car with
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: me and I'm just a woman going a girl, a
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: girl going through it in her car and you get
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: to sit in the back and just drive with me
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: for forty five minutes and you get to really see
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: what girls are going through when they're alone.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: And this show, like it really I couldn't imagine.
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: It's just so unbelievable because you know that, like you know,
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: but when you get in the car, like you're driving
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: to TJ Max. Yeah, and like we see in the
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: visuals like TJ Max getting closer and closer and closer
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: and closer, and it just like brings me to tears
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: that like I didn't want to get to TJ Max
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: because I was enjoying the ride so much.
• 26:15
  Speaker 5: Yeah, thank you guys. And it's hard.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: I've always wanted to do like a car play and really,
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: like I think what what inspires me right now is naturalism.
• 26:24
  Speaker 6: Ye.
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: When I see a real faucet on stage, I'm like,
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: that's what our forefathers wanted theater to be.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, so you're like you're in your real car.
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: I in my real car.
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: I mean that's what's amazing about it, like new stage, right,
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: Like I'd love to do my show in.
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: Your car, Like yeah, yeah, I mean it's asking the question.
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: Like everything's stage is asking the question.
• 26:49
  Speaker 7: Everything's a stage.
• 26:50
  Speaker 5: It's asking the question. This is a stage.
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and this is a stage and sometimes the most
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: private parts of our lives in the car, in the bathroom,
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: it's asking the question.
• 27:02
  Speaker 5: That's a stake.
• 27:03
  Speaker 7: It is brave that you you let the audience. I think,
• 27:05
  Speaker 7: what's crazy about this?
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: And I want to know how you even handle this
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: that you do this, You let them control the ox
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: cord because I saw I saw that on the Instagram
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: that you were saying, Hey, I don't know who sent
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: this to some teen group, but a lot of kids
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: are getting in here and playing fart noises in my
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: whole show, Like please stop, Like how do you stay
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: in the zone crying driving around when like fart you know,
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: forty five minutes of farting is happening.
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: No, I want to talk to you guys about this.

  Speaker 3: I think I'd love to talk about like I think
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: I would I would love to just like dive into
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: the fact that like doing a show in rap, doing
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: a show that.

  Speaker 5: Many times yeah, oh my gosh, like it depends on.
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: Who's the nutchugger that day and who has the ox
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: cord that day. My show is changing every time. I know,
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: this is crazy when I say it, but I don't
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: think I've ever done a show that was similar to
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: the last one.
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: That is related well, and like the audience really changes it,
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: you know, like sometimes you have as few as just
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: two people in your audience yea. And then sometimes you
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: have as many as from like you have you can
• 28:13

  Speaker 4: And you and you have like producer backing right, Well,
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: my you have like a company. I like a company
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: that's backing in my dad. You have like a producer,
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: you have like a lot of money behind it.
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 29:13
  Speaker 6: Well, I mean I don't want to like, you know,
• 29:17
  Speaker 6: sort of like let's talk about money. That's my My dad,
• 29:23
  Speaker 6: who's a dentist, is also a producer. But what I
• 29:26
  Speaker 6: was going to say is that, and I feel like
• 29:29
  Speaker 6: a lot of people don't point this out, is that
• 29:31
  Speaker 6: theater is alive.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: Yes, why haven't we been saying that?
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: No, Like you are so right.
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there is that group of kids that like the
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: entire version of my play. Like we sold out one night,
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: and when we sell out, we sold three tickets, right,
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: And when we sold out, these kids just like kept
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: yelling six seven to me throughout the whole play.
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: And but the way it changed my mom.
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: Law, Yeah, it's a lie.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: It's a lot. It's a lot.
• 30:06
  Speaker 6: I had a heckler in my audience and it actually
• 30:08
  Speaker 6: ended up being one of the girls that claims that
• 30:10
  Speaker 6: I bullied her, Like she was just saying like really
• 30:15
  Speaker 6: just mean stuff things that a bully would say. She
• 30:17
  Speaker 6: was saying, you know, you broke my collarbone. And the
• 30:22
  Speaker 6: truth of that is is that I didn't break her collarbone.
• 30:25
  Speaker 6: The stairs railing broke her collarbone. I don't have the
• 30:29
  Speaker 6: physical strength to break someone's didn't inform the work when
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: she heckled.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: And it did.
• 30:35
  Speaker 6: And so it was during Rat the Rat three piece,
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: the top dancing Rat.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: Three piece, when you bring up those two other things
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: on sticks that look like rats.
• 30:45
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and by Rat three, I go, oh, they're all
• 30:48
  Speaker 6: different rats, right, And I was doing that sort of
• 30:51
  Speaker 6: when it sort of goes into the soliloquy about muffins.
• 30:56
  Speaker 6: At soliloquy about out of the show sort of hard
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: to drop in, but.
• 31:03
  Speaker 5: I'm getting.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: Up and I saw her the need to have a
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: soliloquy in the middle of one woman, because if you
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: haven't been talking to.
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: It's a soliloquy, you can tell it's a little different.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: It's a little different.
• 31:26
  Speaker 6: Yeah, well, I mean it's a liloquy. Went on longer,
• 31:29
  Speaker 6: of course, but it did rhyme yes, And so when
• 31:31
  Speaker 6: I did that change, so she's screaming, you broke my
• 31:35
  Speaker 6: collar bone, broke my collar bone. My family suit, your
• 31:37
  Speaker 6: family and I just dropped in harder. I just I
• 31:42
  Speaker 6: kind of I had this moment where I just I
• 31:45
  Speaker 6: sort of became the rat. I became the rat who. Yeah,
• 31:53
  Speaker 6: so that informed how I felt about her. Where she
• 31:57
  Speaker 6: is Rat three in my story. That is sort of
• 31:59
  Speaker 6: a behind the veil.
• 32:01
  Speaker 5: Oh my gosh.
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 32:05
  Speaker 6: She so she shows up, she's Rat three. I'm playing
• 32:09
  Speaker 6: Rat three. So I really I become Rat three, which
• 32:12
  Speaker 6: means I become her, which means that we are all connected,
• 32:17
  Speaker 6: which means that everything that she said about me is
• 32:19
  Speaker 6: not true.
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, just in pain.
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: She just doesn't know.
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: That's the beauty of life.
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: Just heard it.
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: I think solo shows are so important because it shows
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: that all of us that created a solo show are
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: the victims. Yeah.
• 32:31
  Speaker 6: Yeah, because we're brave enough to tell our stories.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: The girl that did that really long Instagram dump and
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: there are pictures of her with like a neck brisong.
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she had like the video of being pushed down
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: the stairs.
• 32:42
  Speaker 6: Rat number three.
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: Because there's some girl that was like talking about a
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: fringe show. Don't go see this fringe show? Is this
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: the same girl? I don't have social media?
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: Oh girl, that's really brave. Well, actually, this is a
• 32:55
  Speaker 4: question I had for you guys, because obviously at Fringe
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: there's thousands and thousands of shows, you know, big shows,
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: small shows, Like there are shows happening in the back
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: of pizza restaurants, There are show's happening in addicts, there
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: are shows happening in a big theaters, small theater. Donut Aladdine,
• 33:11
  Speaker 4: Donut Aladdin, don'nut alide some pretty good searches.
• 33:16
  Speaker 5: Go se donut Aladdin and get the jelly donuts you.
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: Have to go.
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: But how are you guys approaching marketing because like, obviously
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: we have the posters of our shows that line a
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: wall where like you look at it and there's thousands
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: of them, back to back to back to back to back,
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: But like, how are you taking that extra step?
• 33:35
  Speaker 5: Like did you guys hire pr well for me?
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: Like, I just got to know my audience, right, Like
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: when I'm looking out and I see somebody that walks
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: in that isn't wearing a graphic tea.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: And go, I'm gonna have an issue with that guy,
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: Like that's like literally an issue.
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: But usually my guys are funny, like as long as
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: the New Beverly isn't playing something interesting, that same night,
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: they're gonna be there for me. Yeah, Like as long
• 33:57

• 34:00
  Speaker 2: isn't playing or some ridiculous, you know, exploitation kind of film.
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: You know, they're ready to go. But for other people,
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: I want to let people know, like are pushing boundaries.
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: So I go out, I dress as a nun and

• 38:12
  Speaker 6: show about it.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: It's amazing.
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: I think that's so important about all of our shows,
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: is like the difference between the idea and just deciding
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: to do it.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Like we actually are the bold ones, the the
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: best in show, I will say, Like, we are the
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: ones that, like people always like, how do you do it?
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: How do you do it?
• 38:29
  Speaker 6: You just you just do you Just if we were
• 38:32
  Speaker 6: if we were drafted in war, Let's say we were
• 38:34
  Speaker 6: like at the front lines of the Civil War, we
• 38:36
  Speaker 6: would be all the heroes on the front lines.
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: As we would be. Yeah, we decided to do it.
• 38:42
  Speaker 4: It takes bravery, you know. And like all I'll answer
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: for my show came to me as I was riding
• 38:48
  Speaker 4: the Surfliner, which is the train that takes you from
• 38:52
  Speaker 4: La to San Diego, and I was just like feeling
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: all of these feelings just come rushing back, like all
• 38:59
  Speaker 4: the like the pain and the pressure. You know, when
• 39:02
  Speaker 4: you have heaviness on your chest, you can't let go of.
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: That's what I was feeling the entire time. And I
• 39:11
  Speaker 4: was like my breathing got shallow and I was flailing
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: around this train, like going where am I? What's going on?
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: What am I doing? And then the only way for
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: the thing to come out of me was a sixty
• 39:27
  Speaker 4: minute monologue one person style, so like and like, there's
• 39:32
  Speaker 4: no other format for it sometimes, like I honestly, I've
• 39:35

  Speaker 6: November twenty ninth, I.
• 42:18
  Speaker 7: Mean vertical Vertical is Broadway. That's so exciting.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: The big thing is, you know, one man shows are
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: the number one thing that's being turned into other things
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: right now. Right the night we got we got Baby Reindeer,
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: we got Flea bag Y, like like what North Stars,
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: what's the goal for us?
• 42:35
  Speaker 5: Like Big Bank Theory started as a one man show.
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: Yes, the Pit I heard fairly odd Parents as well, one.
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: Piece show.
• 42:49
  Speaker 6: British, Yes, Breakoff Yeah the Mass Singer British because it
• 42:56

• 43:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah you know that All State guy. Yeah, he started
• 43:05
  Speaker 5: as a one man yeah.
• 43:07
  Speaker 4: Mayhem may the one person show.
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: I actually wish I could have seen that.
• 43:16
  Speaker 12: Actually dramatically feels that he has like I think, like,
• 43:19
  Speaker 12: what's so cool is that like one man one person
• 43:24
  Speaker 12: shows are are really blossoming.
• 43:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, the fact that you're going to Broadway.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: Like I am a little nervous to say this how
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: loud because they don't want to jinx it. But I
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: think in the car next week, one of the one
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: of the passengers knows the artistic director of someone at
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: the pasading in a playhouse.
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: They know someone a passenger who might know the artistication
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: and so, and I got a question, how would you
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: do it in the passing the play?
• 43:52
  Speaker 5: We would just they have a quad in front of it. Yeah,
• 43:54
  Speaker 5: we would just get a car and pull up.
• 43:55
  Speaker 6: And so the people would wait inside of the theater
• 43:58
  Speaker 6: and then like four at a time would go in
• 44:00
  Speaker 6: to your car.
• 44:00
  Speaker 5: And then, though that.
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: Would be interesting, that's interesting, I'd say it loses its thing.
• 44:11
  Speaker 6: What if you took the car on the stage and
• 44:14
  Speaker 6: then just drove around the stage.
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say if you did it in a theater,
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: it would be a show.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 44:20
  Speaker 5: I don't know if I have much. I think what
• 44:27
  Speaker 5: I love about it is it's the naturalism. There's a
• 44:30
  Speaker 5: lot of stuff that.
• 44:32
  Speaker 7: You have to be in the car for sure, but
• 44:35
  Speaker 7: there is an argument that you're just an uber, right.
• 44:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you would, I would you do drop them off.
• 44:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you take them to places that they request.
• 44:44
  Speaker 5: Well, that's a part of the service that we were
• 44:46
  Speaker 5: told we'd sell tickets if we did that.
• 44:48
  Speaker 6: It's immersive, it's a mercy. It's a mercy your tickets.
• 44:52
  Speaker 5: It depends on what.
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: So Yeah, this is this is sounding like an uber.
• 44:58
  Speaker 5: Oh I am just so great to be here with
• 45:00
  Speaker 5: the best artists I know.
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: Artist.
• 45:04
  Speaker 4: Do you guys get nervous when reviewers come? Do you
• 45:06
  Speaker 4: think about reviews?
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: I could get a reviewer to show up to my
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: show that would be amazed.
• 45:12
  Speaker 5: Would you make them chug the nuts?
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: I would make them the nut chugger. The media? What
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: is happening that show? That has to be building into something?
• 45:20
  Speaker 5: It has to be like going to affair or something
• 45:22
  Speaker 5: like what.
• 45:23
  Speaker 7: It has to be.
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: People must be interested or what other dates are? So
• 45:30

  Speaker 1: it's like my mom is guilt and I play her
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: the entire time. Mother married Catholic Catholic.
• 47:31

• 47:47
  Speaker 2: if you guys are punching up doing a right, I.
• 47:49
  Speaker 4: Have a pitch for an idea of what if she cried?
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: I like that what but like, I don't like who's crying?
• 47:56
  Speaker 4: Like there was like a woman in it. I think
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: so guilty and I think like, like what if she cried?
• 48:03
  Speaker 4: Is just an idea?
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: That's a really good Okay, I'll write that down like that.
• 48:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah, what's in your notes?
• 48:10
  Speaker 8: Well?
• 48:10
  Speaker 6: I sort of started out with sort of like the
• 48:13
  Speaker 6: opening monologue of another I okay, it's about me being
• 48:24
  Speaker 6: a child. Okay. I love the smell of the air
• 48:28
  Speaker 6: before a rainstorm. It reminds me of being a child.
• 48:32
  Speaker 6: Being somewhere with my parents fully present, I would take
• 48:35
  Speaker 6: a whiff of the air and feel my stomach to
• 48:38
  Speaker 6: a flip, that feeling of I'm alive, similar to the
• 48:42
  Speaker 6: feeling you get the night before trip to Disneyland. I remember,
• 48:48
  Speaker 6: I remember the day I noticed that I had stopped
• 48:50
  Speaker 6: experiencing that feeling. I was fourteen, feeling the weight of
• 48:54
  Speaker 6: everything around me. And now I'm old and I've storted
• 48:58
  Speaker 6: to feel that feeling again, that gratitude of being alive,
• 49:02
  Speaker 6: although now it's coupled with a twinge of sadness, holding
• 49:06
  Speaker 6: onto a balloon of grief for the rest of my life,
• 49:09
  Speaker 6: trying to become accustomed to it, like a new birthmark,
• 49:13
  Speaker 6: trying to figure out the gratitude of being alive, Feeling
• 49:17
  Speaker 6: like a vagabond to the earth, the last remaining crewman
• 49:20
  Speaker 6: on a pirate ship abandoned at sea.
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: God, and like, literally, that's how I know I'm straight.
• 49:27
  Speaker 7: So that was exactly what was written down.
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: I am so highest.
• 49:37
  Speaker 4: How got on your phone or what's going on?
• 49:40
  Speaker 5: So that's the realist thing that's ever happened on this podcast.
• 49:43
  Speaker 11: Wow, I think I think I did it for a
• 49:47
  Speaker 11: show of someone reading a bottlogue on their phone and
• 49:50
  Speaker 11: I that's the great thing about the you know, I
• 49:57
  Speaker 11: also have I also have h oh yeah, why don't
• 50:03
  Speaker 11: you close your eyes?
• 50:07
  Speaker 6: Okay, I I'm I have I have one that says,
• 50:13
  Speaker 6: I don't trust Canadian women. There's something going on.
• 50:16
  Speaker 5: There, that's something.
• 50:19
  Speaker 6: And then that's definitely I have another one that says,
• 50:21
  Speaker 6: how come every female bartender is from Scottsdale, Arizona.
• 50:25
  Speaker 4: That's true, That's definitely true.
• 50:28
  Speaker 6: And these are, honestly, and that's the thing about being
• 50:30
  Speaker 6: an artist because these are just like thoughts that I have,
• 50:33
  Speaker 6: but they can become.
• 50:33
  Speaker 5: Something so inspiring it made me, Honestly, I wasn't gonna.
• 50:37
  Speaker 6: Say mine say it, say it, say it, Okay.
• 50:41
  Speaker 3: So I think it starts when like if someone, if
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: an audience member, I think they could only come see
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: the show if they're hungry.
• 50:52
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and why did you get so quiet when you
• 50:55
  Speaker 6: said hungry?
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: Because it's like, I think, what's making me cry about
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: this idea is that it's a feed.
• 51:03
  Speaker 6: In suple ways.
• 51:04
  Speaker 5: So I think what happens is.
• 51:07
  Speaker 6: It's another car play, and I think, what if we
• 51:09
  Speaker 6: got out of the car.
• 51:10
  Speaker 5: Okay, what about this?
• 51:11
  Speaker 6: Okay?
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: I love that.
• 51:12
  Speaker 5: I love that what if what if you at home
• 51:15
  Speaker 5: are feeling hungry and a play comes to you Stora Dash.
• 51:22
  Speaker 6: That's sort of like I think if something.
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: I think there's something really interesting, gine.
• 51:32
  Speaker 5: Camera and somebody walks up and I'm doing like a
• 51:35
  Speaker 5: one woman show.
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: For you at your house. You don't have to open
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: the door. That's good.
• 51:38
  Speaker 6: Wow, But what if someone doesn't have a rain camera?
• 51:42
  Speaker 6: Do you always have to specifically?
• 51:45
  Speaker 5: I guess something like that.
• 51:46
  Speaker 3: It's a workshop. I'm figuring out. I haven't read that
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: to anybody. I haven't read that idea.
• 51:50
  Speaker 6: That's really really beautiful.
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: I was looking at my ideas too, like a lot
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: of these are because me and Charlotte were kind of
• 51:57
