I was trying to think of the various ways to share the indiegogo for the San Francisco Olympians Festival, which is ending soon. I came up with a couple things on facebook. Ways to illistrate its importance to me and how it helps to foster an artistic theater community here in San Francisco. Then, today…

The Real World- Theater Edition: An Interview With Star Finch
Barbara Jwanouskos brings you the author of H.O.M.E. I heard the title first, H.O.M.E. (Hookers on Mars Eventually) and I thought, “okay, now, that’s gonna be good…” I see it and it’s this meld of worlds, ideas, curiosities, passions, and most importantly, issues I care about, so I was immediately drawn in. It’s speaking to…
The Real World – Theater Edition: Interview With Alex Spieth
Barbara Jwanouskos starts your Pride with an interview with Alex Spieth! I met Alex Spieth at Carnegie Mellon. She was one of the BFA Actors in her senior year and was in a collaborative class in TV Writing/Acting/Directing. Albeit, the class, at the time, was mainly focused on the classic sit-com three camera format, but…
The Real World – Theater Edition: Interview with David Molina
Barbara Jwanouskos interviews David Molina, composer and sound designer. I met David Molina a number of years ago when I’d first moved back to the Bay and had stumbled into doing sound tech after teaching myself how to dj. Yvette Jackson connected me when the production that David was working on needed a substitute tech…
The Real World- Theater Edition: Interview with Paul S. Flores
Barbara Jwanouskos (on a different day) chats with Paul S. Flores about You’re Gonna Cry. This week, I was lucky enough to coordinate with Eric Reid and Paul S. Flores to talk about You’re Gonna Cry, the new show that will be opening soon at Theater Madcap. Paul developed a play that sounds incredible and is…
The Real World- Theater Edition: An Interview With Christopher Chen
Barbara Jwanouskos interviews one of San Francisco’s notable playwrights, Christopher Chen. I was lucky enough to see one of Christopher Chen’s staged readings a couple of years ago and remember thinking, “Whoa, I didn’t know you could do that in plays?!” Christopher has this great style, which he describes as having “a maximalist approach.” He’s…
The Real World, Theatre Edition: Interview with Edna Miroslava Raia
Barbara Jwanouskos talks to one of SF’s longest running local activist artists. The day after Valentine’s, Justin Keller, Founder of Commando.io, penned an open letter to San Francisco’s Mayor Ed Lee and Police Chief Greg Suhr complaining of the city’s homeless problem leaving many questioning whether he understood the complexity of the issue and had…
The Real World – Theater Edition: Britney Frazier
Had to share this interview. Whenever I have moments of these moments of self doubt, I need to do as Brit: This is the advice I give myself: Keep the faith. Believe in you. People say sh*t, good and bad people say sh*t. Don’t let it make or break your spirit. Please yourself first and…
unedited scene from the bike play
I haven’t really felt like sharing, but then I thought, fuck it, I got nothing to lose (except for my 14 views–don’t go!). Anyway, I was trying to think of what scene to post to round this off. There’s one where Ella is teaching Jamie how to be seductive, that one’s good. Or another that’s…
The Man Who Sold The World
I have song obsessions. This is one of them. This song relates to i stole lance armstrong’s bike in that it was the impetus for the whole play. I will share that next, but first, a really long digression… I warned you. Of course, I felt tremendously sad to hear the news of David Bowie. A…
