protesting the shooting death of Alton Sterling gather near the headquarters of the police department in Baton Rouge, LouisianaLone activist Ieshia Evans stands her ground while offering her hands for arrest as she is charged by riot police during a protest against police brutality outside the Baton Rouge Police Department in Louisiana, U.S.A. on July 9, 2016. Evans, a 27-year-old Pennsylvania nurse and mother to a young boy, traveled to Baton Rouge to protest the shooting of Alton Sterling, a 37-year-black man and father of five, who was held down by two white police officers and shot at close range by one of the officers. The shooting, captured on cell phone videos, aggravated the unrest that has coursed through the United States for two years over the use of excessive force by police, especially against black men.

Their crude blacks and reds spoils a child's natural sense of colour; their hypodermic injection of sex and murder make the child impatient with better, though quieter, stories. Unless we want a coming generation even more ferocious than the present one, parents and teachers throughout America must band together to break the `comic' magazine." - Sterling North, Chicago Daily News, May 8, 1940https://bittergertrude.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/liszt_lehmann_portrait.jpgLiszt_(Lehmann_portrait)Gorgeous young Franz Liszt, seen here in an 1839 portrait by Henri Lehmann, inspired a frenzy in his young, usually female, fans, known at the time as "Lisztomania." Women would wear vials containing his discarded coffee dregs and bracelets made of his broken piano strings. He was chased through the streets by young women attempting to grab a lock of his hair. The older generations were horrified and believed it to be a literal psychological disease.https://bittergertrude.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/elvis.jpgelvisElvis Presley was shot from the waist up when he appeared on the Ed Sullivan show in 1957 to protect teenage girls watching at home from his hip-shaking and its perceived sexuality.https://bittergertrude.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/techbrandt.jpgtechbrandtPhoto by Alvaro Garnero2015-10-07T15:40:48+00:00monthlyhttps://bittergertrude.com/2015/05/07/adam-sandler-charlie-hebdo-and-freedom-of-expression/https://bittergertrude.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/bassem.jpgbassemBassem Yussef, an Egyptian satirist often compared to Jon Stewart, was arrested in March, 2013 for allegedly insulting President Mohammed Morsi and Islam.

I knew I wanted to produce this play by the time I was 15 pages into the script. It was so satisfying to see audiences fall in love with the show night after night. This was a deeply satisfying artistic experience for me personally and, I hope, our artists.

This show sold like whoa-- one of our highest-grossing shows of all time. This concept was essentially a love letter to my friends from high school. I invited them all and thought no one else would care. I was shocked by the response. You honestly never know.

This eventually became the cover of the published edition. This show was a big hit for us. I wasn't sure how it was going to play, but I believed in the writer and the director (Desdemona Chiang) and aesthetically, it was a perfect match. I loved the script. https://bittergertrude.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/sexpervbedsmall.gifsexpervbedsmallhttps://bittergertrude.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/roosterproduction-2749.jpgroosterproduction-2749The Year of the Rooster, 2014. This show was a hit off-Broadway. We got excellent reviews, but the play never found its audience in the Bay Area. Did I overestimate how turned off audiences would be by the idea of a play about cockfighting? Was I blinded by the excellence of the script and the fact that the heart of the play is the rooster himself to the way potential audiences here would be turned off by the stigma? Who knows. All I know is we lost a ton of money on this show, and you can never predict what will sell and what won't.
