"TWO INTO ONE" IS LAUGHS ON THE RUN

By Chuck Graham, TucsonStage.com

 

Could the wacky art of British farce become an Olympic sport? Live Theater Workshop makes a zippy case with “Two Into One,” a fast paced and fleet of foot comedy by the English playwright Ray Cooney (“Run for Your Wife,” “Funny Money.”)

Cooney’s many plays are famous for being filled with elaborate complications of mistaken identity trumped by sexual misadventures and myriad frenzies of door-slamming. LTW’s director Missie Scheffman ups the ante by spinning her athletic bunch of actors even faster.

What do you call the next stage beyond “manic?” Half-way through the second act I’m sure this veteran cast officially reached it.

Keith Wick as the speedy schemer George Pidgen always seemed to be in three heated predicaments at once. Stephen Frankenfield playing Richard Willey, a rather randy Member of Parliament, kept popping up in all the wrong places just as often.

Debbie Runge as Willey’s wife Pamela had her own racetrack games going at a red-line pace, determined to have even more affairs than her husband.

But the biggest surprise in a most hilarious evening was the performance of bit player Do Pham as the London hotel’s long-suffering Chinese waiter with no name. A natural physical comedian with an athlete’s nimbleness, this University of Arizona grad shamelessly stole his every scene and the audience happily encouraged him to steal more.

“Two Into One” is not so much a play with acting – it is a play with running. Lots of it, as one secret tryst after another collapses, usually into laughter (for the audience, that is).

Everything starts at the Westminster Hotel in the mid-1980s. No cell phones, no computers, no sexting, thank goodness. These Brits are all so over-sexed on their own, with today’s digital toys in hand they would be spontaneously combusting right on stage.

Willey and his wife are staying in one of the hotel’s finest rooms, but Willey instructs Pidgen to secretly reserve the adjacent room as well. That way, Willey can join his statuesque sweetie Jennifer (also Scheffman) in clandestine comfort.

Of course it isn’t long before Jennifer’s husband Edward (Nick Salyer) shows up unexpectedly -- as well as a far more puritanesque member of Parliament, Lily Chatterton (Martie van der Voort).

Manning the hotel’s side of the ledger is Brian Wees as this oh so proper establishment’s manager, a worldly man who has seen it all but is determined not to see any of it in his hotel.

Brightening this balance is the sparkly chambermaid, also with no name, but given a brio-filled personality by Sofia Orduno.

Making fun of pompous politicians is standard fare, to be sure, but Cooney’s manipulations of one crisis situation after another is the point here. Logic is never a part of the equation.

By the end of LTW’s opening night performance, it was the awe of maintaining that crazy pace for nearly two hours that had the audience cheering the curtain calls.

“Two Into One” continues through June 9 with performances at 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, 3 p.m. Sundays, at Live Theatre Workshop, 5317 E. Speedway Blvd. Tickets are $18, discounts available. For details and reservations, 327-4242, www.livetheatreworkshop.com

JOSHUA BREAKSTONE'S JAMMING BREAKOUT

Not only bebop guitar madness but also guitar elegance is coming to the Old Pueblo Grill, 60 N. Alvernon Way, on Sunday, June 2, with the arrival of internationally acclaimed Joshua Breakstone.

“Fire in velvet” was one critic’s recent description of Breakstone’s playing.

The New York Times expanded on that thought, reporting how “Mr. Breakstone produces guitar lines that flow through smooth, mellow-toned, bop-based phrasing.....There is depth and thoughtfulness in his playing, a sense of graceful development even when he is swirling along with jumping intensity."

Hear Joshua Breakstone for yourself in two separate musical settings for one all-inclusive price of $10 per person.

At 7 p.m. Breakstone is joined by his touring bassist Earl Sauls and OPG impresario drummer Pete Swan to groove out on some of those applauded bebop adventures.

Then a second guitar super-set puts Breakstone in a throw-down with local jazz guitar giants Matt Mitchell and Ed Delucia. Talk about fire and ice…that would pretty much describe it.

For this very special performance with house concert rules, reserved seating will be available. For the second set, only the tables will have reserved seats.

Arianna & Eugenia Zukerman to join CS Duo

 

On Saturday, February 15, 2014 we have the enormous pleasure of welcoming a very special mother-daughter team: soprano Arianna and flutist Eugenia, Zukerman.

 

The program is dedicated to women's music and it promises to be a very special event indeed.

 

The Washington Post has acclaimed, "Arianna Zukerman possesses a remarkable voice that combines the range, warmth and facility of a Rossini mezzo with shimmering, round high notes and exquisite pianissimos that would make any soprano jealous."

Ms. Zukerman's extensive career includes performances with an impressive group of conductors including James Levine, Charles Dutoit, Leonard Slatkin, Lorin Maazel, Ivor Bolton, Constantine Orbelian, Julian Wachner, Jeffrey Thomas, Jane Glover, Lawrence Foster, Rossen Milanov, Marin Alsop, Pinchas Zukerman, Jose Luis Gomez, and Andrew Litton. She has worked with major orchestras worldwide, including the orchestras of Boston, Chicago, Minnesota, Dallas, Colorado, Cincinnati, and Pittsburgh, and the Philadelphia Orchestra, Rochester Philharmonic and National Arts Centre Orchestra in North America, and with the English String Orchestra, Royal Philharmonic (UK), the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, the Gulbenkian Foundation Orchestra and the Moscow Chamber Orchestra abroad, to name a few. Among the opera companies with which she has performed are such esteemed organizations as New York City Opera, Chicago Opera Theater, Arizona Opera, The Chattanooga Opera, the Berkshire Opera Company, and the Castleton Festival. 

 

Eugenia Zukerman is a true Renaissance woman. While maintaining an international concert calendar with more than thirty performances annually, her multi-faceted career also includes distinguished work as an arts administrator, author, educator, internet entrepreneur, and journalist. 

In demand from New York to China as an orchestral soloist, chamber musician and recitalist, Eugenia Zukerman has been praised by The New York Times for her performances - "Her musicianship is consummate, her taste immaculate and her stage presence a sheer pleasure." She has enjoyed musical collaborations with Emmanuel Ax, Yo-Yo Ma, Jean-Yves Thibaudet, the Shanghai String Quartet and fellow flutists Jean- Pierre Rampal and James Galway.

 

So, join us for the March of the Women on February 15, 2014, part of the Tucson Desert Song Festival and for the rest of the exciting 2013-14 Season!

The Tucson Improv Movement (TIM) is Tucson's brand new Improvisational Performing Company and Comedy School. Founded in October 2012, this performing company has grown into a diverse group of fifteen performing improvisers. TIM produces hilarious improv comedy based on the same philosophy as the great comedy venues in Los Angeles, Chicago and New York City. Catch the comedy of the big city, right here in the Old Peublo!

The Tucson Improv Movement is proud to present our brand new improv comedy show Twitter Blast. Based on the chaos of the social media website Twitter, our talented group of improvisers will take the top trending topics, and weave them into an intricate network of hilarious threads. The cast will also interview audience members and use their interactions on Twitter to formulate another batch of sidesplitting scenes. Bringing the bedlam of social media physically onto the stage in a live format will be sure to present an uproariously, amusing show.

Communication in our world is constantly changing, and that has been highlighted by the monumental growth in social media websites. Daniel Kirby the Twitter Blast's artistic director explained "Twitter is a unique peek into the collective consciousness of the world. There's so much information and so many stories. Our job with this show is to break some of those down. We will take what seems most interesting and examine it. We'll try to make sense of it through our scenes. We'll tap the global gold mine of ideas and bring them to the stage. Also, there will probably be a couple jokes about farts."

With a desire to being new formats of improvisational comedy to the stage, Justin Lukasewicz birthed the idea of creating the Tucson Improv Movement last April when he moved back to Tucson. "For the size of Tucson, I did not see a lot of improv comedy happening. It become my daily goal to find ways to create a vibrate comedy community in town!" Through this TIM was created to provide a venue for people to learn, perform, and enjoy the art of improvisation. "I believe improv comedy makes people's lives better whether they are learning, performing or watching improv, I hope TIM can really bring laughter and a positive perspective to Tucson!" said Lukasewicz

The Tucson Improv Movement also features a comedy school where students can learn the art of improvisation in a creative and supportive environment. The comedy school features five levels of improv training, with the ultimate goal of perfecting the harold, the most famous long form improv format created by Del Close in the 1960's. Harvey Gardner a recent TIM comedy student said, "Thanks for your great gift to us all, clear pointers to how we may confidently, enthusiastically, innovatively and cooperatively improvise the rest of our lives." TIM teaches a comedy curriculum developed by Zach Ward the current Managing Director of ImprovBoston and founder of the DSI Comedy Theater in North Carolina. This style presents a fast paced, smart comedy format that pushes directly on the funny in a scene.

The Tucson Improv Movement Performs weekly at the Red Barn Theater on Saturday afternoon at 5 PM. Tickets are $5 at the door, and $3 for students and military. Our shows feature Improv Jam a fast paced comedy battle between two teams competing for street cred, and the honor of being our weekly Comedy Champion. TIM is excited for our first run of night shows during the month of June with Twitter Blast shows at 7 PM. Each level of our comedy classes feature a showcase, where our students put their new improv chops on the stage for family and friends. Recent Comedy student Yarrow King said, "I had a blast at our student showcase for Tucson Improv Movement's Improv 101 class! Thank you for the great class! Thanks to all my fellow improvisers!"

TIM

TUCSON IMPROV MOVEMENT

Daniel Kirby: Daniel is the Artistic Director of the Twitter Blast show for Tucson Improv movement and a comedy addict in general.

Daniel has been performing comedy since 2006 when he was accepted to the University of Arizona's Comedy Corner: the longest running college comedy troupe in the nation. While in College he served as the troupe's Artistic director and Producer. He has done numerous workshops with Improvisors in Cities from LA to Chicago and has performed locally at the Beowulf Alley Theatre, Auld Dubliner, Sky Bar and Surly Wench Pub. He enjoys the challenge of each new project and looks forward to nothing more than making people smile.

Ben Dietzel: Ben Dietzel, apart from being an avid fan of anything involving avocados or grilled asparagus, is a semi-experienced improv and stand-up comedian. Since 2009 he has been 76% committed to achieving his dreams of work in the entertainment business in one capacity or another. While lack of focus and procrastination may be his strong suits he still feels that if you aren't fully amused by his performances you will at least walk away with a bit of worldly wisdom.

Jessica Gregg: Although Jessica dreamed of being a fly girl on the hit sketch comedy show, In Living Color at the tender age of 8, she was actually terrified of the stage for most of her life. However, after moving back to her hometown of Tucson, she decided to take the TIM Improv 101 class in March 2013. A week later, she kicked herself for not trying Improv sooner and is now super pumped to be a part of the TIM company. When she is not improv-ing or practicing the Running Man, Jessica enjoys going to concerts, watching too much television and hanging out with her adorably overweight Miniature Pinscher, Sophie.

Jacob Lockwood: Jacob is a long-form and short-form performer with the Tucson Improv Movement, a technology guru and a life-long fan of improvisation.

Jacob is a Tucson native and has only been performing improv since October 2012. Growing up, Jacob had a penchant for characterization and voices creating a small following for several of his characters. His eidetic memory garnered for him the designation: "a Walking Book of Useless Information." Coupling his skills with characterization and details, Jacob hopes to be one of the many outstanding members of The Tucson Improv Movement.

Lena Olsen: Lena has been doing improv comedy since 2011. Like other members of Twitter Blast, she was a member of the UA sketch and improv troupe, Comedy Corner. After graduating from college this spring, she decided she wanted to keep doing improv and gain more experience through TIM. She hopes to do improv and stay involved in comedy for the rest of her life.

Justin Lukasewicz:

Justin has been involved with the performing arts for over ten years. In college Justin performed with the Misericordia Players and produced Misericordia University's first live comedy show CougarLive. After moving to North Carolina he began an in-depth study of improvisational comedy at the DSI Comedy Theater in Carrboro, NC. While at DSI, Justin was a resident instructor in the Comedy School, performed on the IMPROV SLAM and OMAHA 9 house teams. Justin also coached the high school improv team GISUEPPE, and did corporate trainer work with DSI COMMUNICATION.

Jessica Peck: Jessica only recently started doing improv in TIM's 101 & 201 classes lead by Justin Lukasewicz and soon fell in love with it :) A Tucson native, she earned her Business Management and Film degrees at the University of Arizona where she also works.
