"Bad Kid" in the San Antonio Current

 
The San Antonio Current has run an article in their new issue about my storytelling and solo show, "Bad Kid." It's a sassy piece entitled "David Crabb dishes queer Saytown goth to the rest of the world." Get a load of that gay-with-a-capital-G bidness!

Many thanks to journalist Gregg Barrios, who let me blather on for about half an hour about how deeply I love The Smiths when all he probably wanted to know was what my show was about. Talking to him about the good old days in SA was great- getting high at The Rocky Horror Picture Show at Northwest Theatre, making out on the dirty sofas suspended from the ceiling at Changez, breaking into the grounds of the McNay Museum on acid. What an unsullied youth! And what a nice article.



So hang on San Antonio. I might be a few steps closer to performing my solo show "Bad Kid" in the actual place it happened. It would certainly be a rush to talk about drag queens fist-fighting at the Alamo in a theatre NEAR the Alamo! 

"Shhhh... you can almost hear them voguing."

My advanced storytelling class at The Story Studio

I'm so excited to be teaching an advanced class at The Story Studio.

This class will meet on Mondays and Thursdays 7-10pm starting on Monday July 9th, with seven sessions followed by a class show for friends and family during the eighth and final session on Thursday, August 2nd. Class sessions will meet at CAP 21, 18 West 18th Street, 5th Floor, room 507, NYC. The class show will take place at 3 of Cups downstairs lounge at 83 1st Avenue, NYC.
The Story Studio’s 4-week storytelling workshop provides students who have some previous storytelling experience with an encouraging, constructive environment in which to develop new pieces for the stage and receive feedback from their instructor and peers. Exercises in class focus on complex story structuring, mining your life for content, developing the character of “you,” using your voice and body to inhabit characters, and developing concise and meaningful endings. Each student will leave this class with at least 3 fully-developed stories.
This class is open to students with some storytelling experience. Sign up with a friend, and once you’ve both registered, email jc@thestorystudio.org with your friend’s name and receive a 15% rebate on the cost of the course.
