PIGGIE PIGGIE PIG!

I have one more short play opening this month - my comedy PIG PATTER in Seattle at Live Girls! Theater. It's being done in their Quickies! Festival, which is where it originated several years ago. It's the 7th anniversary of Quickies, so they're bringing back 4 of the most popular pieces, and PIG PATTER is one of them.

The premiere totally rocked -- I didn't get to go, but they send me a video and Zoe Fitzgerald's production was drop dead hilarious. It takes a look at 3 teenage girls trash-talking in a high school bathroom, and weaves themes of girls' friendships and fights with a situation of sexual innuendo from a popular boy.

It's since had a NY production, and was recently published in GIRL TALK, an anthology from Theatrefolk in Toronto, which specializes in plays for student actors.

Quickies runs Thurs-Sat from June 30-July 22 in LIVE GIRLS!' new space in Ballard. As a "Classic Quickie", PIG PATTER will run every other performance, so if you're in Seattle and want to see it, email the theater about which particular days it's playing.
