The Monday Moment
My four-year-old son Max leading a dance movement piece at Fringe Family on Sunday. I call this one “flock of wounded birds”. He’s the little guy in the orange shirt.
The Los Angeles Post Interviews Bitter Lemons’ Editor
Yes, I just spoke of myself in the third person. It’s a painful occurrence, trust me. Below is a little interview conducted by Los Angeles Post theater critic Rose Desena. It’s a veritable potpourri on the history of our site and the state of Los Angeles Theater. It’s interesting, I think, maybe, I dunno, so [...]

The Tony Awards Entertainment Explosion or “The Monday Moment”
Wow. What more can be said about this dude Neil Patrick Harris? Sign him up for the Oscars, shit, just let him host everything he’s available for. He is simply a walking talking, signing, dancing talent bomb. This opening from the Tony Awards last night is about as spectacular as you can get. Unfortunately, I [...]

Let’s Fringe: Town Hall Teasers
Navigate the Hollywood Fringe Festival! First two are dark but they get better. Quick teasers I shot at the last Fringe Town Hall, asking artists to pitch their show in 20 seconds. Some really did it: ‘ Ceremony w/ Michael Kass Brilliant Traces Bobbywood by Bill Ratner A Man of No Importance (musical) The Real [...]
The Monday Moment
Wow. Musical Theater in space, if you will. This is a music video version – the first ever recorded in space apparently – of Bowie’s “Space Oddity” performed live in the international space station by Canadian astronaut Commander Chris Hadfield. It’s a bit precious here and there, but mostly it’s quite spectacular and oddly moving. [...]
The Antaeus Company Shows Us How to do the Teaser Trailer
It’s a little long – they’ll figure that out as well – but clearly what the The Antaeus Company has already figured out – and what we’ve been pushing here for years at the Lemon – is that the teaser trailer for theater needs to ENTERTAIN. It needs to entertain to such a degree that [...]

Lost Moon Radio at South Coast Rep this Weekend
One of my favorite companies, Lost Moon Radio, is doing a weekend of shows this weekend only, May 2-5, 2013, at South Coast Repertory as a part of their Studio Series. If you’ve never seen them, go, if you’ve seen them before, go again and bring a friend. If you can’t do either pass the [...]
The Monday Moment
Okay, I’ve been trying not to get caught up in the recent Insane Gamma Delta Sorority Letter craze, but then I saw this interpretation from actor Michael Shannon over at Funny or Die and now I am posting unashamedly because we all need to laugh today. And you will, oh, you will. Alert: this is absolutely [...]
The Thursday Thought
In case you missed it, this happened at the Boston Bruins hockey game last night. Major kudos to the singer, who just stepped back and let the moment happen. We truly are an astonishing nation sometimes. It’s just sad that it takes such tragedy for us to come together as one.
Open the Doors for the Next Generation
Singer Michael Buble takes a chance and gives this kid a shot during one of his shows. And you know what happens…? And major props to this kid’s mom. Serious balls.
The LemonHeadMeter Cometh
I swear, it really is comething. We’ve just run into all sorts of little bumps and hurdles in getting our Kickstater campaign in ship shape, but the time is near I promise. So to keep your whistle whetted we once again offer you our video highlighting Operation LemonHeadMeter. Stay tuned! Operation LemonHeadMeter from Bitter [...]
The Friday Feature
The trailer for A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder, getting some nice reviews down at San Diego’s Old Globe. Funny little teaser.
The Monday Moment
A big “boom” to get your Monday jump started. Even if you aren’t a sports fan this is pretty special, straight from Lob City.

Operation LemonHeadMeter: The Bitter Lemons Kickstarter Video
We’ve had to delay our launch for a week. So until then, here again is your sneak peak of our Kickstarter Video. Enjoy. Operation LemonHeadMeter from Bitter Lemons on Vimeo.
The Friday Feature
From those crazy Four Clowns. The Harlem Shake. Thirty seconds of weird. They got a show coming up at the Long Beach Playhouse in March.
Sneak Peek: The Bitter Lemons Kickstarter Video
We’re calling the campaign: Operation LemonHeadMeter. It’ll make sense after you see the vidie. Our launch date is going to be Monday, February 18th - as long as our review goes through without a hitch of course – but that’s our target date. I apologize beforehand for the Kickstarter inundation that will be raining down over [...]
The Scared is Scared of the Things you Like
Filmmaker Bianca Giaever asked six year old Asa Baker-Rouse what he thought her movie should be about. He told her. She made the movie. For any of you have followed the running exploits of my best writing teacher, my four year old son, Max Mitchell, this fits in nicely with that series just beautifully. Enjoy. [...]
The Friday Feature
Track 3 by Theatre Movement Bazaar over at the Bootleg Theatre. Cool video teaser.
The Monday Moment
Brian and Stewie face off over Stewie’s new play in an episode of “Family Guy”. Real funny, as in it’s funny because it’s real. Apparently the whole episode was quite the satirical jab at Broadway and American Theater in general. Gonna have to Hulu that one.
The Production Company Teases the Funny Bone
I’m liking the energy and inventiveness of some of the teaser trailers I’ve seen lately. The key it seems is always capturing the essence of a theatrical entity cinematically, not just trying to recreate what happens on stage.The question must always be: how best to capture our production on film? Here’s another funny one from [...]
