Thursday, January 6 So I am excited because we open tomorrow night. And aside from that being exciting in and of itself (woohoo), I am particularly pleased because I will get to take off one of the hats I’ve been wearing these past months: the producer Top Hat. It’s been fun and challenging juggling everything […]

Monday, January 3 Akin to the word of God. Now I am not religious, but we sure as hell were blessed today cause Lucy was in residence with us and it was awesome. Angels came down, gave us tips you won’t hear from straight people and said fuck a lot. Total joy. It’s such a […]

Friday, December 31 Ok, so the ridiculous thing about writing this entry on love is that I am literally watching “Bridges of Madison County” at this very moment.  Alone.  With a bottle of wine.  Why do I put myself through this torture?  Because I love that narrow tipping point where friends become lovers, and I […]

Thursday, December 30 My nose loves:  Coffee grounds.  Daffodils.  The first smell of winter in the air; it’s usually in late September/early October and no matter where I am physically, suddenly my heart is spirited away to the street where I grew up. My tongue loves:  Fresh raspberries.  Peanut butter (the real stuff).  Garlic.  So […]

Tuesday, December 28 I love popcorn, specifically anything with the words “butter” or “boom” in the title. I don’t know why. Maybe cause I love movies, or maybe cause it’s a suitable substitute for a normal meal and ya gotta cut corners where ya can (or at least I do). I like it slightly burnt, which […]

Monday, December 27 Cozy in flannel sheets, in the dim, gray half-light of morning in rural New Hampshire, I inhale the earthy tones of coffee, the crispness of bacon and the sweetness of pancakes rising from the kitchen below. Children’s cries and the murmurs of adult voices float up the staircase, reminding me that it’s […]

Tuesday, December 21 Here’s a dialogue between Bronwen Prosser And Kathryn Walsh as they work through the play, The Make-Out Queen. Some ramblings… Bronwen: Writing it: what is it? Katy wants to know why i say the first line of my play. I DON’T KNOW. damn. I already WROTE it- now I have to tell the […]

Monday, December 20 Lots of people wear several hats in their job. I mainly wear two, but sometimes I’ll wear, say, 16, (like at our last fundraiser where I wrangled performers, co-hosted the event, prepped food, transported speakers across town, tended bar, set up lighting, etc, blah, etc…). Of course any producer knows what that’s […]

Friday, December 17 * Jealousy Underscoring Love Is Entirely Troubling. * Hastily Abandoned, I’m Left Ever Yearning. *

Wednesday, December 15 Hey, my name’s Michael Pantozzi.  I am a founding member of The Common Tongue, and I’ll be playing two characters over the course of the upcoming theatrical event known as CONNECT FIVE (my initial suggestion for the evening’s title, “Four Little Licks,” was mysteriously opposed).  Needless to say, the excitement of doing […]
