Dr. Sue TRU Producing/Investing/Marketing Panel Positive Entertainment

  TRU (Theater Resources Unlimited – www.truonline.org hosts panels and workshops for theater professionals at all stages of their careers. Audiences and Speakers include Producers, Investors, Artists, and Self-Producing Artists (SPA’s – because it’s so relaxing to produce your own show 🙂 ) Panelists include Commercial Broadway Producers: Eric S. Goldman (Entertainment Attorney), Patrick Blake, Van Dean, Jeremy Handelman, Cheryl Wiesenfeld, and James L. Simon. Here are my notes from the panel – with questions: Why People Invest – How to Pitch and Choose Projects 1. People invest and produce for different reasons, including: profit– everyone hopes to make money, but people may invest for other reasons – relationship to creative team and/or producer, experience – the thrill of being part of a glamour industry, with opening nights, parties, and the chance to mingle with stars, passion for the project – the artistry, message, etc.! Basic RGB 2. Is this show well-crafted? (I had the opportunity to successfully present my musical SSS…WITCH! ssswitch.net  as part of the TRU series “How To Write a Musical” – the experience was quite helpful!) 3. Does this show have a selling point? Is it based on a popular property? If so, does the producer and/or writer own the rights? Does it have a celebrity star? Will that star sell tickets? 4. Who is on the production team? Is there a capable general manager? Does it have a realistic budget? (cast size? sets? etc.) S.A.F.E. – An Acronym for Smart Choices 1. S – What will Sell this Show?  A name-brand property? the concept? the celebrity star? the writing team? 2. A – Audience Who is your Target Audience (not “everyone” be specific – and spill over). Do these people go to the theatre? 3. F –  Funds How are your investors going to recoup their money – and how long will it take?  How many tickets do you have to sell – and how much will it cost to keep that show afloat? (You can make money beyond Broadway in stock and amateur rights. Musicals are more likely to tour than straight plays – and don’t forget licensing – shared by authors and sometimes producers!) 4. E – Environment What is happening in the world and current theater environment? Aim for relevance and avoid repetition. Producers and Projects need to Match! Producers choose shows for a several reasons – passion for the subject, love of the artistry, money-making potential, entertainment and fun, etc.  Nobody does everything well – or wants to – talent and funding need to match! The Journey Most shows don’t open on Broadway. They start in regional theatres, off (and off-off Broadway), festivals (for example, fringe and New York Musical Festival) London’s West End, International Venues, and today’s trend – the movie-cal a slick move from Screen to Stage!

Lake Hopatcong Cruises

Lake Hopatcong Cruises

How’d you like to take a break on a lovely lake – with wining, dining, and mansion views? If New Jersey’s greenery, gorgeous scenery, or a  floating feast amuses – then book lunch, dinner, cocktails and more on Lake Hopatcong Cruises. If I got a bit carried away with show-tune style rhymes, it’s because many of those mansions we sailed past were built by Broadway stars. In fact, our boat/ aka floating dining room “Miss Lotta” was named for Lotta Crabtree – a successful, wealthy vaudeville headliner.
Dr. Sue on Lake Hopatcong

Lake Hopatcong

Once you climb on board “Miss Lotta” (the boat, not the lady), you’ll enjoy a two-hour narrated architectural/nature cruise.  There are vintage and modern homes, boathouses, condos and bungalows.  We even spotted an eagle nesting in a tree! There’s a full bar (cocktails, wine, beer, soft drinks) and delicious buffet (lunch, brunch, and/or snacks for cocktail hour. The staff is friendly, courteous, and very attentive. (While I was outside exploring the upper and lower boat decks, my waitress “Cupcake” set me up for a second mimosa.) Lake Hopatcong is located in a state park in Morris County, New Jersey. (The nearest semi-big towns are Morristown and Hackettstown, NJ) – about an hour from Manhattan (in weekend morning traffic). It’s a long time since “Hopatcong” was named by the Native Americans, who may have been able to follow those twists and turns down to the lake – so turn on your GPS and Google Maps. (Type in 37 Nolan’s Point Park Road, Lake Hopatcong, NJ 07849.) Reservations strongly advised (our cruise was packed). For more information and to book your cruise, visit the Lake Hopatcong Cruises on the web: http://lakehopatcongcruises.com/.

Dr Sue Swings –
with Duke Ellington!

Pre-party festivities included the annual free jazz concert with dancing in Central Park in front of the Duke Ellington Statue overlooking the Gateway to Harlem — the corner of Fifth Avenue and 110th Street in Manhattan. This year’s concert showcased outstanding musical and dance talents. Artists included The Middle School Jazz Academy (MSJA), The Youth Workshop Band from Jazz  At Lincoln Center (JALC), the LaGuardia High School Senior Jazz Band, and the multi-Latin Grammy nominated Afro-Cuban Orchestra, conducted by percussionist and Latin bandleader Bobby Sanabria, two swing dance couples and one jazz tap dancer. Renowned jazz vocalist Antoinette Montague roused the crowd in a gold lame “she-ro” cape and flew us on a musical journey to the jazz greats (Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, and of course, the Duke.)
Tony Ponella & Bobby Sanabria Swing the Duke!

Tony Ponella & Bobby Sanabria Swing the Duke!

Tony Ponella, an up-and-coming singer and finalist in Michael Feinstein contest, contributed his rich vocals and boyish charm. Edward Kennedy “Duke” Ellington was the 20th century’s most prolific composer, with over 3,000 compositions – which he called American Music -and he took his band all over the globe. He received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from Presidents Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard Nixon. In 1999, Duke Ellington was honored with a Pulitzer Prize. Duke believed that racial integration was just a stepping stone to a much more important goal: “Human harmony beyond dignity.” Duke’s April 29 Birthday Bash is a celebration of the life and legacy of real American royalty! Let’s toast the Duke in champagne, birthday cake, and good fellowship! Let freedom ring – and swing! Creative Living: Celebrate great music – sing, dance, or just tap your feet in the audience.  Socialize with positive people. Learn about our great, diverse heritage of popular culture – and don’t forget to have fun! (Photographer/Editor: Jay Berman)

Dr. Sue Gotham Writers Positive Entertainment

Daffodils

Daffodils

“April in…” Can you name that song? If you said “April in Paris” you were right about the Vernon Duke/E.Y “Yip” Harburg  standard.  But as the Billy Crystal/Debra Winger movie advised: “Forget Paris.”  New York City has its own April delights –  including the beginning of Gotham Writers Spring Semester, where you can study songwriting, screenwriting, and much more. This week, I attended the Gotham Writers Open House – a free sampling of writing courses:  Articles, Creative Writing, Fiction, Humor, Memoir, Novel, Playwriting, Poetry, Screenwriting, Science Fiction and Fantasy, Songwriting, Stand-Up Comedy, TV Writing.  So many seeds for thought – so little time! I did manage to sit in on a few courses, and here are a few tips from the instructors: Songwriting (Instructor: Jody Gray – jodygray.com) Most popular songs are written with a “hook” (a repeating refrain) and a classic structure,  For example,  the song “Over the Rainbow” has a hook that shows up in the title and each “A” section.  The form is A, A, B, A.   Can you find the hook and figure out what the “A” sections are?  You can do it (and write it)  if you take Jody’s class! Humor Writing (Instructor: Ryan Britt) Humor (even when it’s based on life) usually includes certain elements: misunderstanding, exaggeration, odd combinations, and/or inversion of expectations.  Can you think of a story from your own life or imagination that includes these elements?   You’re half-way to funny!  Ryan’s class includes readings from top humorists and a chance to rough out and polish your own ideas. Screenwriting (Instructor: Jason Grieff) Screenplays often begin with the familiar and throw in a twist!   (Think Dorothy – a farm girl, who is whisked out of Kansas into Oz by a tornado or “twister”!)  Like most great protagonists, Dorothy really wants something – to go home – but first she must undertake a life-changing journey! (Sound familiar? Like many screenplays, “The Wizard of Oz” has deep roots in mythology – in this case,   Homer’s classic tale: “The Odyssey”). What kind of screenplay should you write? You can start off by listing three of your favorite movies.  As Jason points out,  they can give you clues about what you love and can successfully write! Gotham’s courses run from 6 weeks to 10 weeks and include one-day intensives.  For more information, visit gothamwriters.com By the way, do you know who wrote the lyrics, much dialogue, and served as script editor for the movie: “The Wizard of Oz”?  If you said E.Y. “Yip” Harburg,  then you brought it all back home – from Paris and Oz to Gotham Writers in NYC! Creative Living: Exercise your mind!  Pull out those lazy mental weeds (like “I have no talent or time”), plant those seeds of thought, cultivate your craft, and watch yourself bloom!

MAC Awards

MAC Awards

“Come to the …” Can you name this Broadway musical? Even if you missed Cabaret by Kander/Ebb,  you can still enjoy live entertainment in an intimate room or a large venue like BB King’s Restaurant, in Times Square NYC, which hosts the annual MAC Awards. MAC stands  for Manhattan Association of Cabarets & Clubs,  but the talent is  international, and the material is varied: show tunes , jazz, pop , comedy, tribute shows, drag acts, singer-songwriters, etc. Almost anything goes as long as it’s the personal vision of the performer. The key is sincerity (and if you can fake that – you’ve got it made)!

I had the thrill of  interviewing MAC winners and  nominees (past and present)  for StageBuddy.com – a website devoted to the best in NYC entertainment, where you can see our videos. Lennie Watts, Head of MAC’s board of directors, and Julie Miller co-produced the awards show, directed by Watts, who won his own MAC  award for direction (musical direction by Don Rebic). Mr. Watts shared insights on how to help performers weave stories and songs into a cohesive show – plus the practical realities of sustaining a cabaret career. Therese Genecco, hosted the show, sang a mashup that included “Applause”, told jokes, and modeled three outfits (two guys’ suits  and one gown). Video: Dr. Sue Interviews MAC Cabaret Celebs for StageBuddy.com   Highlights include the marvelous Marilyn Maye (86 years old and going strong!) who won a Lifetime Achievement Award presented by legendary costume designer Bob Mackie. (She considers it her “midlife award”).  Ms. Maye delivered a powerful, emotive,  singing tribute to life and “you” her appreciative audience. Her sensitive phrasing and attention to lyrics exemplified what she teaches in her master classes.  Linda Lavin, who won the other Lifetime Achievement Award, sang and accompanied herself on piano. Other winners included the Eugene O’Neill Cabaret and Performance Conference (accepted by John McDaniel), and Will Friedwald of The Wall Street Journal was among the presenters. Songwriters Julie Gold (Grammy-winner “From a Distance”) and Christine Lavin (“Good Thing He/She Can’t Read My Mind” ) shared sources of inspiration (from the social idealism of the ’60’s to dating deceptions) plus the latest cabaret/internet interface: concertwindow.com

Singer Baby Jane Dexter infuses her cabaret show with raw emotion – some from her personal history. She also teaches Master Classes to both aspiring cabaret stars and at-risk, inner-city teens. There were sequins a-plenty, plus wigs. (Hello, Reverend Yolanda, a six-foot tall gender-bender gospel goddess) –  plus sensitivity and search for meaning in this most personal of performing art forms. Did I miss anyone?  Of course I did. But you can make it up to them – if you come to the cabaret! Creative Living: Cabaret connects performers and audiences in a way that mass media and stadium-sized arenas never can. Performers  develop their talents; audiences get to be part of an art form that’s individual and special  – not canned and homogenized for the mass-market. It’s unpredictable, in-the-moment, and interactive – like life. You might even catch a rising star! (Photographer: Genevieve Rafter Keddy & Jay Berman, Editor: Jay Berman, Videography StageBuddy)

Cup for Education

Cup for Education with Dr. Sue Horowitz

“I love coffee, I love tea, I love the java jive and it loves me…” (“Java Jive” by Milton Drake & Ben Oakland). If you’re looking for a cuppa caffeine, an herbal serene, or an entertaining scene,  you’ll hum, jive & come alive at the annual Coffee & Tea Festival NYC at the 69th Regiment Armory – listed as one of the “Ten Best New York Events.” Perked up by morning cappuccino ($25 for VIP  tickets – early entry plus swag-bags) we bought raffle tickets for “Cup for Education” – a non-profit company that supports educational projects in poor, coffee-growing areas. (All donations go to the local communities – the staff is all-volunteer.)
Tea Fields with Dr. Sue Horowitz & Erica Morrison

Tea Fields with Dr. Sue Horowitz & Erica Morrison

Prizes included goodies from vendors – established tea brands like Red Rose/Salada plus newcomers like “A Gift of Tea” –  which makes “Tea Fields” – a tea-infused, shea body butter  which my skin is drinking in along with my morning cuppa. Coffees range from local  –  like Toby’s Estate, a Brooklyn roasters/espresso bar and New York Gourmet Coffee (“Fuhgeddaboudit!”)  to major brands like A&P’s Eight O’Clock coffee. Ancillary products include Nektar’s crystalized honey (non-sticky) and chapstick, Stevia (organic, and non-caloric sweetener) and glass tea pots, warmed by tea candles – even sea-salted chocolate samples by Salazon and vegan ice cream from Alchemy in Long Island City. This weekend’s festival (produced by Starfish Junction) was sold out in advance – including the VIP tickets. But there’s always next year – plus many other shows at this Armory.  The 69th Regiment has a history going back to the Civil War, so have a cuppa coffee, tea, and history! Creative Living:  Swag-bags are fun, but here’s the real perk – caffeine (in moderation) actually reduces your risk of Alzheimer’s and dementia and helps you live longer. Supporting charities like “Cup for Education” makes you feel better about your life – so do good, be well, and spend some dough on a cup of joe (and tea). (Editor/Photographer: Jay Berman)
