Play7 asks, what is
intimate theatre, anyway? It's hard to say because of the
incredible diversity of the art form. But one thing is for sure:
it's as close as you can get without holding a karaoke mic, and no
one wants that, do they? No. Intimate theatre engages you because
you are there in the space with the performers, breathing the same
air, experiencing the story more directly, more personally than in
any other medium. You can't get that from the boob tube, can
you?

Crimson T-shirt sells personalized t-shirts and
other artistic paraphernalia in order to raise funds for White Cane
Productions, which is a production company that helps people with
disabilities enter into mainstream entertainment. White Cane
Productions showcases the disabled in innovative stories,
representing them as more provocative, conflicted and humorous
people. The good intentions of my company are reflected in our
name, which was inspired by my experiences working with the blind.
Our first screenplay is entitled "Fade Out," and stars a lead
character who struggles with blindness and a dramatic family
history.
It's time for people with disabilities to be shown as beautiful,
enviable and dynamic!
Now in our 49th
