ACTION CALL - BLITZ THE ROUNDABOUT THEATRE!

WE ARE THEATRE ACTION CALL:

BLITZ THE ROUNDABOUT!

The Roundabout Theatre has announced their 2012/2013 mainstage season - a season that contains ZERO plays by women and ZERO female directors. Artistic Director Todd Haimes recently wrote on the Roundabout blog: It is very exciting to put together a season with such variety...and consistently offers the audience the kind of enduring themes and stories that have come to define Roundabout.

Live, from Slovenia! Guerrilla Girls On Tour - If You Can Stand The Heat

Watch live streaming video from ggontour at livestream.com

Today, at 2 PM EST, join us LIVE in Ljubljana, Slovenia. The show, "If You Can Stand The Heat: The History Of Women and Food", is laugh riot of funny feminists aping on the stage. We twist Lady Gaga, bananas and potica into a yummy mush of comedic madness.

On stage are the dynamic duo Julia Child and Aphra Behn. I'm the mouse monkey, in true Maya Deren fashion, shooting and streaming the video live.

And, joining us live today is a class from Purdue University! Welcome!

So watch and interact with us live! I'll be watching the social streams and chat box as we perform.

banana-na-na!

SHE WRITES DAY OF ACTION NOV 13, 2009

DID YOU KNOW THAT there are ZERO women (and almost total absence of people of color) on Publishers Weekly's Best Books of 2009 list??

Mad Yet? Take part in the first-ever She Writes Day of Action!
On November 13, 2009 please do three simple, but enormously powerful, things:

1) Post a blog on She Writes (http://www.shewrites.com/profiles/blogs/mad-yet-take-part-in-our)responding to the exclusion of women on PW's list. Make your own list, as many of you have done already, or take this opportunity to reflect more broadly the ramifications of its women-cook-the-food-but-only-men-get-Michelin-stars message, and share your thoughts with us all. (More ideas on this to come.)

2) Buy a book written by a woman in 2009. Take a photo of yourself holding it. Post its cover on your page. Tell us what book you bought, and why.

3) Invite five women writers you know to read your words and join us on She Writes.

Once you have posted your blog, send the link to kamy@shewrites.com. SHE WRITES will send these links to their entire community (5000+) on Saturday and will send out a press release then too. If you are a well-known writer, you know how greatly we need your response, your leadership, and your help in spreading the word. If you aren't, we greatly need your response and your leadership too. Use this platform as a platform of your own.

GO BANANAS!!!!
