"Cellphones," a new rock musical
written & directed by William Electric Black. The war in Iraq and terrorists’
threats keeps America on constant alert. Homeland Security is not only the
buzz, but the only place that’s offering a decent job. A new recruiting
booth is about to open up at 7:00 am Monday, in Central Park. The night
before the booth opens, twenty strangers gather and wait in line. While
they wait, they rock out about timely topics such as Britney Spears, botox,
SUVs, MP3s, rap music, fast foods, low fat diets, saving Michael Jackson,
gay marriage, the Internet, porn, soccer moms, Enron, Bush, Starbucks, Martha
Stewart, weapons of mass destruction, and of course, cellphones. Move over
“Hair”--cellphones are now the rage. In fact, during the rock
musical, audience members get calls from the cast. Cast: Eve Blackwater, Chris Brady, Nathan Brisby, Peter
Philip Clarke, Andrew Daphnis, Max Ferguson, Judith Griegossies, Verna Hampton,
Raguel Jordan, Sheena Marie Ortiz, Valerie M. Santiago, Kat Yew.
