In addition to last year's annual Summer Shorts festival, City Theatre premiered Camp Kappawanna, the family rock musical penned by Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter Lisa Loeb (the show is back for a return engagement this year). This year's festivities, however, is not so kid-friendly.
The 16th anniversary of Summer Shorts calls for something spicier, hipper and provocative all meshed into a series of seven five- to 20- minute fast, funny and fresh plays performed back-to-back at the Arsht Center's Carnival Studio Theater beginning this Thursday. And it looks like City Theatre found their man in former Queer Eye for the Straight Guy star, Jai Rodriguez. We asked The Culture Guy about Dirty Little Secrets as well as about the challenges of performing in consecutive fast-paced short plays.
Among some of the plays are Chronicle Simpkins Will Cut Your Ass, a play about a gang war on the playground; Aboard The Guy V. Molinari, and Mickey Herman Saves the *%#@^* Universe, where a gamer wagers the fate of the planet against alien invaders.
