Two More Picutres of Paul in Spoon River

These were taken by Jimmy Maize and were copied from Facebook.

Matt in Robin Hood at Oxford

Matt is apparently making his contribution to the great English theatrical tradition while at Oxford with this production based on Robin Hood. Appears to be a fairly loose adaptation. Pictures by Karen Rice from FaceBook.

Paul in Romeo and Juliet

Word is that Paul has landed the role of Benvolio in a new production of Romeo and Juliet. Benvolio is a cousin and friend of Romeo's who talks Romeo into crashing the Capulet party where he first sees Juliet. He is also active in the critical scene in which Mercutio (a Montague) is slain by Tybalt (a Capulet), who is, in turn, slain by Romeo (a Montague). The production will be done with an all male cast, as it was done in Shakespeare's time. It will be directed by Anya Saffir, whom Paul worked with at Atlantic Theater and directed Three Little Pigs. Should be a great experience! Shakespeare!

Four Videos from Rent

Chris has sent along four additional videos from the Roeper production of Rent featuring Miles and Julia, recorded by the Lyons. Thanks for sharing.

Clip 1: Restaurant in Santa Fe (Miles), Clip 2: We're Okay (Julia), Clip 3: Take Me or Leave Me (Julia), Clip 4: I'll Cover You (Miles)

Julia Sings and Tangos in Rent

Here is a clip of Julia singing "Tango Maureen" from the Roeper production of Rent. And she also does some tango.

Julia in Guys and Dolls

Her's a clip of Julia in a nice extended comic scene from the Roeper production of Guys and Dolls, as Adelade explaining to Nathan about their imagined marriage in a Brooklyn accent. You can see other clips of this Febrary 2011 production here, here, and here.

Paul's 3 Pigs Play Reviewed by NY Times

The New York Times review of the Atlantic Theater's production of The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs says the play is "one of the best children’s shows of the year." And the Times says, "The cast, directed by Anya Saffir, is excellent." Presumably including our own Paul Eddy. You can read the times review here.

Here's a glowing review of the play from a site for moms, and this one has pictures, including the one on the left with Paul. And here's the note from offoffbroadway.com, which includes a mention of Paul as a cast member. A similar note appears in the New York Theater Guide.com; see it here.

Julia as a Robot

Here is a brief video of a piece that Julia and another girl did for a forensics contest. Julia plays a hyper-cheerful robotic counselor trying to give advice to a woman whose marriage is breaking up.  Very funny and Julia does a great job with a tricky part.

Paul Gets Role in Kids' Play at Atlantic Theater

Paul has landed the role of Rocky/Ensemble Pig in the Atlantic Kids Theater production of The Three Little Pigs: The True Story, which is apparently set as a courtroom drama in which the audience gets to decide the verdict. Paul says he'll be singing and possibly possible ukulele/ guitar playing. The run is from October 8 through October 30. Here is the Atlantic Theater's promotional site for the play; it has a link for the cast, but it is not active yet.

More About Paul's Play

The play that Paul will appear in a play in the Theater for the New City's 2011 Dream Up festival for new plays, running August 14 through September 4. You can read more about the festival and New City here. New City is where Paul's first New York play (Angry Young Women in Low Rise Jeans with High Class Issues) was staged (coincidence), and it appears to have a pretty distinguished history. If the play's festival run is successful, it will get a regular run.

In it Paul is the lead in one of three plot strands that seem unrelated to each other. He plays a man who makes stop-action films with Barbie dolls; his character mainly delivers a monologue. Rehearsals start soon. He continues to audition for other roles whenever he can. Paul, please correct whatever I got wrong.

Paul Has a New Acting Role

Phillip says that Paul has gotten another acting gig, but he has no details. Can anybody help us out here? Paul?
