Even though only about 25% of my blog's traffic comes from people in New York, I still want to take this opportunity to plug Molly's latest show and encourage people to go.The Funeralogues is one woman's comedic journey into the known and unknown.
Created in collaboration between Stacy Mayer and New York playwright Robert Charles Gompers, The Funeralogues examines the words and lives behind eulogies. The evening draws inspiration from real life eulogies by Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. to the more humorous eulogy a six year old imparts for her headless Barbie. The audience is drawn further into the parlor as Stacy shares her experiences of wandering through the services of total strangers. Find out the not so certain answers to the uneasy questions we all ask including, "What will they say at my funeral?" and "Does this dress make me look fat?"
The Funeralogues premiered at Emerging Artsists Theatre's One Woman Standing Festival in 2007 and later appeared in the Director's Company Katherine & Friends Festival. It is now enjoying a 6 week limited engagement at All Souls Chapel in New York City.
