An incomplete selection of characters from my original writing project:

New York City, 1999 — On a hot July day in a bustling Manhattan café, journalist Van Daniels interviews Jonathan Hawkins—a dangerous mafia associate and a pop cultural icon called The Vampire. Despite Hawkins' taciturn nature, his face features regularly in tabloids and TV programs, and his deeds are mirrored in works of fiction. He does not speak to the press and has never volunteered any information about himself. All of it based on the rumors that follow him wherever he goes: whispers about the man who melts into shadows and rolls in with the fog—the man who cannot be killed and does not die. The rumors have followed him since he first came ashore in Long Beach, California, in 1919. He has not aged a day since then. The reason for Hawkins' unnatural longevity is unknown—equally so, his reasoning for agreeing to this interview at all. But before Hawkins can get up from their table and vanish back into shadow and fog, Daniels intends to get to the bottom of both mysteries.

The first call for a National Theatre came from London publisher Effingham Wilson in 1848, originally thought of as ‘A House for Shakespeare’. While Wilson’s proposal was supported by writers like Charles Dickens, the idea of governmental support for theatre as opposed to ‘fine art’ was an alien notion at the time (Rosenthal, D. The National Theatre Story. 2013).

The first detailed proposal for a National Theatre didn’t come until 1904, when critic William Archer and actor Harley Granville-Barker wrote the Scheme & Estimates for a National Theatre, popularly known as the legendary ‘Blue Book’. They proposed a repertory theatre with a resident company of ‘42 actors and 24 actresses’, a 15-member Board, a Director, and around 235 permanent staff. The theatre they imagined was to be ‘national, representative and popular’, and their scheme inspired the creation of the first organisation to make the National Theatre a reality, the ‘Shakespeare Memorial National Theatre General Committee’, in May 1908 (Archer, W. and Granville-Barker, H. Scheme and Estimates for a National Theatre. 1904).

Sherry! might indeed be one of the most unnecessary musical adaptations of a play ever, and it is... not great, but I would lie, if I didnt say this number is kinda a blast, and Nathan Lane obviously is perfectly cast as Whiteside (which I would assume happened for this recording due to him playing the part in a 2000 revival of the play)

- What are you saying to her? - Oh, I was just making conversation. Telling her it was a sewing card. - Does that mean that to her? - Oh, no, she won't know what spelling is till she knows what a word is.

Celebrated composer, Laurence Rosenthal recounts his experience with LSD in our summer issue: THE WILD: 

I had known about drugs given to novices in mystical schools of the East at the beginning of their training, for the purpose of providing a confirming glimpse of the kind of state they might one day reach through their own inner work. In fact it was a motive related to this idea that led me to try LSD. And now the mounting magnificence of the hours, growing constantly more radiant, finally melted all resistance.
