Hello Bernini Play interested parties

wanted to let you know the progress we are making.

as of now Clay, the playwright, has made several modifications to the script, based on input from various sources and viewers last year. The revised script has been submitted to two theaters in NYC to consider for workshopping the play. We can, and will, cast a wider net (even beyond NYC) based on feedback from these two theaters in NYC.

We will keep you informed of the outcome and the progress we are making along the way.

Thank you for your interest!

Get your groove on and read this outstanding biography of famous baroque artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini, whose brilliant text inspired the development of the play, Bernini in Ecstasy. You will be intrigued by the real life story by reading Bernini: His LIfe and HIs Rome, by very talented Franco Mormando, PhD. http://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/B/bo12065735.html

The reading in Cleveland on the 28th of September was attended by nearly 100 people at the Dobama Theater. Wonderful and constructive feedback as we move forward to consider workshop possibilities for the play development process to take its next steps. Where will it premier as a workshop? Then where will the full staged production premier after enough workshop development is done? Send in your suggestions! Grazie!

The reading in Boston on September 13 hosted over 100 people at the Dante Alighieri Center in Cambridge. Thank you to all the participants, especially those who were so brave to give such very helpful constructive criticism to improve the script and ready us even further for a full costumed production. Please join us in Cleveland on Monday, the 28th of September for our next and final reading this year before the next phase of the development process to get Bernini in Ecstasy a premier.
