Closed Twelfth Night last week. It was free. I’ll remember it forever.
To Matt, Gia, Kierney, Trevor, and this whole company of scurvy fellows; Thank you for believing in me - ‘Twas an honor to have worked alongside you all. To everyone who came out; thank you for packing the house and reminding everyone that the theatre is rockin and rollin harder than ever.
Three by @gallerybygeve and one by me.

Adult Film presents CIMINO’S DEFEAT. A new play by Eric Faris @theatrenewyork directed by Sam Cini @stcini premiering this winter at Torn Page @tornpage
After the Oscar-winning success of The Deer Hunter, director Michael Cimino rose to extraordinary power within the New Hollywood system. But his follow-up, Heaven’s Gate, spiraled into production chaos, ballooned budgets, and a legendary box-office failure — a collapse that ended Hollywood’s era of director-driven filmmaking and ushered in the studio model we know today.
Cimino’s Defeat pulls you into that moment: the ego, the pressure, the downfall, and the behind-the-scenes storm that changed an entire industry.

This show absolutely rocked. So many thoughts and feelings but I’ll keep it light and just say I’m real proud of this crew who showed up unafraid to challenge themselves and me every time we got together to dive into this thing; and I’m eternally grateful for the folks who came out to see the show, offered a helping hand to our team, or just said a kind word or two along the way.
Go make things with your friends!

This Obie Award-winning play takes you right into the living room of a post-apocalyptic holiday. Liza, Lupe, Jeep and Shooter are trapped in a cold, isolated cabin after a mysterious “crisis.” Time has passed since the days of mass-media and indoor plumbing and they are struggling to pull off a holiday meal. Limited food, an uncertain future and overwhelming boredom begin to take their toll with disturbing and absurd results.

Hello wonderful humans. This past month some extremely talented people and I have been getting together a couple of times a week to bring new life into an old Sam Shepard one act play. We’ve decided to do this independently because we are tired of asking for permission to create what we want.
If you are a fan of live theatre, or Sam Shepard, or would just like to support some friends so that we can keep this beautiful & crazy little show going then I strongly urge you to purchase a ticket. There are 4 nights to choose from, but seats are limited and filling fast!
This will be a show for the senses.
I can almost guarantee it.
We’ve been laughing together for weeks, literally rolling on the floor, and it’s time to bring others in on our shared psychosis.

These are some of our posters and promotional content. We did a little photoshoot in my apartment on 35mm film and I love how the photos turned out.
Donations are nice but they’re not needed. If you want to support but can’t come to the show, kind encouraging words are always appreciated, and as always you can book me for some photos or videos. Let’s work together. I love a good story.
