This message from my beloved Dancing Sky Theatre"

 

In 2020 we planned to do a show called THE CURST by Kelley Jo Burke. But 2020 didn’t go as planned and it was cancelled. Now THE CURST is back on our schedule for 2023 Fingers crossed  things go right this season!

CV-19 adds to the The Curst curse

POSTPONED (in a hugely meta way)

This play obviously DID NOT open May 1st.

My letter to the amazing cast of THE CURST, sent when we were supposed to be in rehearsal starting this week--to prepare for our world premiere at Dancing Sky Theatre:

"First of all, a huge thank you to all of you for everything that you've put into the show up to date. 

Secondly a huge thank you to Dancing Sky Theater for giving our artists something in lieu of the salary they were expecting. This is more than some theatres are doing. We have reports at playwrights Guild of artists being asked to return advances, and actors being cut off without a cent.

 

I am not surprised that Dancing Sky chose the decent path.I am just hugely proud to be associated with a theatre that has done so.

This is such a discombobulating time that there seems to be nothing to say except how much I care about all of you. And value what you bring to the work, but more what you just bring to the world.

 

I look forward to a time when we all come together again and make this happen. 

And finally, my sincere apologies for writing a play about artists being chased by bad angels. I knew I was opening the door to some epic bad luck. But I never thought that it would end up in a pandemic.

My bad."
