Subject: News from Film Tucson - August 2022
Thanks to the tireless efforts of Arizona's film communities, we now have statewide incentives taking effect in September 2023 which will give us a competitive edge in the production marketplace.
One year from now is the perfect amount of time for all of us to prepare for the upswing in production this new law will bring.
Here's are some of the strategies Film Tucson already has in the works.

Mainstage Theatre Season
October 13 - November 19, 2022
BOSTON MARRIAGE
by David Mamet
Set at the turn of the century, Anna and Claire are two ladies in love.
For these scheming socialites, maintaining their class status is full-time work, and hilarity cleverly ensues as their plans unfold. Anna has become the mistress of a wealthy man and has already received an emerald. Meanwhile, Claire is infatuated with a respectable young woman and she
enlists Anna's help to arrange a secret meeting with her. When this plan goes awry, Anna and Claire's status and wealth are suddenly in jeopardy. Writers and theatre goers have long admired David Mamet's hilarious, expertly-written dialogue in this acclaimed jab at the patriarchy.
January 12 - February 18, 2023
STONES IN HIS POCKETS
by Marie Jones
Hollywood comes to rural Ireland in this hilarious multi-award winner which ran for four years in London's West End. This offbeat, endearing tale in which two local Irishmen work as extras on a Hollywood film brilliantly mixes comedy with the poignancy of unexpected loss. Every artist with unrealized childhood dreams will invest in the successes and shortcomings of Charlie and Jake in this acclaimed production of Stones In His Pockets.
February 23 - March 25, 2023
ON THE VERGE, OR THE
GEOGRAPHY OF YEARNING
by Eric Overmyer
Set in 1888, three female explorers at the top of their game team up to
conquer Terra Incognita, the most desired and mysterious of unexplored
territories. On this fantastical journey they encounter cannibals, trolls, artifacts, and more as each of their destinies are revealed to them.
A study of ambition and the human condition, On The Verge, Or The
Geography of Yearning has captivated fantasy and science fiction lovers for over thirty years and its acclaim has only grown.
March 30 - May 6, 2023
THE OTHER PLACE
by Sharr White
Juliana is a successful medical scientist whose life is unraveling. She is dealing with a divorce and disapproves that her daughter has eloped with an older man. While Juliana grasps to regain control, a mystery unfolds and facts begin to blend with fiction. As her distress reveals that things may not be what they seem, her focus on The Other Place (a cottage on Cape Cod) turns to obsession as Juliana believes this is where she might reunite with her missing daughter. Are phone calls
from her daughter a delusion? Is her obsession warranted? Juliana's
assuredness is put to the test as The Other Place's twists and turns
are sure to leave audiences on the edge of their seats.
Note: This show contains explicit language.
May 11- June 10, 2023
LUNGS
by Duncan Macmillan
In this brutally honest, intimate production, a young couple debates
bringing a child into the world. Zooming in on the results of overpopulation and climate change, W and M's decision reaches
well beyond their relationship, and laughter is the antidote to
the stress around their big-picture questions. In Lungs, Duncan
Macmillan successfully puts his finger on the pulse of the cultural and
personal questions that are informing the life decisions of our young
community members, and he does so through empathetic, jarring,
and hilarious exchanges.
Note: This show contains explicit language.
June 15 - July 8, 2023
WALTER CRONKITE IS DEAD
by Joe Calarco
In this endearing plea for common ground, Walter Cronkite Is Dead is
set in an airport amidst a flurry of delayed flights. Patty, a boisterous
Southerner, strikes up a conversation with Margaret, a liberal from
Washington. Over a bottle of wine, they argue about their personal
passions and emboldened opinions about what it means to live
in present-day America. When they begin to confide in each other
about details of their personal lives, their anger turns to empathy and
a friendship forms. This funny, frank, and unpredictable production
emphasizes all that could be possible if people from opposite sides of
the political aisle took the time to really listen to one another.
August 3 - September 2, 2023
VENUS IN FUR
by David Ives
Thomas, a director in a bind, is desperate to find an actress to play the female lead in his adaptation of the classic sadomasochistic tale Venus in Fur. Enter Vanda, a vulgar and equally desperate actress. Though, on the surface, she is utterly wrong for the part, she authoritatively and seductively masters the part. As they work through the script, a game
of domination and submission plays out with only enough room for one
of them to win. This mysterious, charmingly erotic and acclaimed work is a high point in David Ives' diverse body of work.
Note: This show contains explicit language and adult themes.
September 7 - October 7, 2023
HIR
by Taylor Mac
When a son returns home from Afghanistan ready to challenge his
abusive father, he finds an unexpected scenario: Isaac's father has suffered a debilitating stroke and his mother has gleefully taken
control of the household with unwavering support from little sister
Max, newly out as transgender. Isaac revels in the old, "be careful
what you wish for" mantra, as he struggles to find his place in this
new family dynamic. Celebrated as a dysfunctional family dramedy
for a new era, Taylor Mac's HIR turns patriarchy on its head with
intriguingly fresh results.
Note: This show contains explicit language and adult themes.
Children's Theatre Season
October 29 - November 13, 2022
DÍA DE LOS MUERTOS: THE MUSICAL
by Michael Martinez
The Day of the Dead comes to life in a new bilingual children's musical. When Juana stumbles into the world of the dead in search of her beloved pet turtle, she comes face to face with Mictecacihuatl, her hilarious sidekick Grito, and some of her grumpiest ancestros. Juana learns to face her greatest fears and that not everything is always what it seems to be. The whole audience is
invited to help Juana on her journey between the world of the dead and the world of the living.
December 2 - 18, 2022
ROCKIN' AROUND THE
CHRISTMAS TREE: A CHRISTMAS SING-A-LONG
by Richard Gremel
The Cheer Squad is preparing for the Christmas Extravaganza to raise Christmas Cheer, but after
most of them get sick from drinking bad eggnog, it's up to a band of misfit reindeer and elves to save
the day. But the Broadway producer reviewing the Christmas Extravaganza is secretly the head of the coal industry, and would like nothing more than to have every child get coal in their stockings. Come join in the fun, sing along to your favorite Christmas tunes, and enjoy a visit from the big guy himself.
January 28 - February 12, 2023
NO OTHER NEMESIS
by Catherine Oda
Space Lady (Karate Expert, Alien, Hero) and Doctor V (Totally Real Doctor, Air Guitar Enthusiast,
Villain) are sworn enemies, and yet, they find themselves the only constant in each other's lives. It seems as if they live in a simple episodic monster-of-the-week series. That is, however, until the Masquerader, a new ruthless villain, tries to destroy the city that Space Lady and Doctor V have been fighting over! The sacred bond between hero and villain will be stressed as things start to get real. What will happen?
Who will win? Find out, in a battle of Good and Evil versus Slightly More Evil!

TOOTH FAIRIES IN TRAINING
by Richard Gremel
It is the first day of tooth fairy training for Bridget Bicuspid and Marty Molar. But things aren't
going as well as they wanted. As hard as they try, they just don't have what it takes to become
official tooth fairies. When Calvin McCavity threatens to end the Fairy Flight Force once and for
all, it is up to Bridget and Marty to save the day before it's "tooth" late.
June 3 & 4, 2023
YOUNG PLAYWRIGHTS OF TUCSON
LTW's 4th annual Young Playwrights of Tucson Competition encourages students from all over our
community to write and submit their short stories for a chance to be workshopped in the summer. Each
top young playwright is teamed up with one of LTW's seasoned playwrights/directors to help get their plays from the scripts to the stage. Local talented students audition, perform, and run the tech for all of the shows. This is a great way to see Tucson youth blow you away with how much talent they have. With the help of LTW's Children's Theatre leaders, these students take the stage and give a voice to the stories they want everyone to hear.
July 14 - 30, 2023
PUFFS (ONE ACT FOR WIZARDS)
by Matt Cox
The New York Times proclaims Puffs "A fast-paced romp through the 'Seven Increasingly Eventful
Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic.'" This clever and inventive play "never goes more than a minute without a laugh" (Nerdist) giving you a new look at a familiar adventure from the perspective of
three potential heroes just trying to make it through a magic school that proves to be very dangerous
for children. Alongside them are the Puffs, a group of well-meaning, loyal outsiders with a thing for
badgers "who are so lovable and relatable, you'll leave the theater wishing they were in the stories all
along" (Hollywood Life).
Best for wizards ages 11 and up.

10 Minutes With Dawn
Improv With The Best!
This week - Alrinthea Carter!
Exclusively on our
Unscrewed Theater Facebook page!
This week marks our 72nd episode of Ten Minutes with Dawn. What started as a way to improvise, connect, and laugh during a pandemic that kept us indoors craving human interaction has led to two wildly successful seasons with Dawn and improvisors from all over the world.
And on this extremely high and bittersweet note, we're calling these delightful episodes to a close. As is only fitting, we'll end as we started it. With the one and only Alrinthea Carter!
Emmy Award nominee Alrinthea Carter is a South Carolina girl who was raised in Germany as part of a military family. After graduating from Winthrop University, Alrinthea moved to South Korea for a year, becoming a preschool teacher for Air Force children in Osan.
After learning more kids' songs than she ever expected, Alrinthea moved back to South Carolina to attend graduate school at Clemson University, which set the stage for a career advising Clemson students for 16 years.
Her tenure at Clemson ended when she was staffed as a writer on the Emmy-winning Comedy Variety series "A Black Lady Sketch Show" on HBO, created by comedy giant Robin Thede. Alrinthea was nominated for "Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series" alongside the ABLSS writing staff.
An improviser for nine years, Alrinthea has performed across the country and is a highly sought-after improv instructor and coach.
Alrinthea is also a photographer with an artistic focus on the abandoned spaces of the American South. She was recently noted in The Hollywood Reporter and widely published and featured in Art Galleries. She gave a TED Talk focusing on the connection between her abandoned space photography and living with depression.
She is always searching for new ways to implement glitter into her daily life while waiting for a call back confirming her selection as a Solid Gold Dancer, which should be any day now.
We know you'll miss this great way to start your weekend. But not to worry - The archive will remain right here. Bookmark it to come back again and again and again.
