This will be my attempt to get better at the parties. Refreshments will be served. Dances will be danced. And one iconic pop song will be absolutely destroyed by my trombone.

Last one. We are so very excited to see what happens this weekend at First Date. First Date is sold out! If you show up, we'll try to get as many as we can in the door for standing room, but no guarantees. 👯

Our final pairing for First Date: @arlettaanderson & @kensakushinohara ! Just a handful of tickets left. Fight the Los Angeles urge to be casually noncommittal and get that ticket now. Born in Japan, Kensaku Shinohara is an immigrant, researcher, and interdisciplinary dance artist. His praxis draws on anthropology, electronic sound, and intimate collaboration. He investigates the primal forces that move and motivate our lives, while simultaneously challenging social hierarchies and interrogating the individual values we each hold as our moral code. Arletta Anderson is a Los Angeles-based movement artist and educator. She makes work in collaboration with writer/sound designer Adam Smith under the moniker Andersmith. Their multidisciplinary work lives at the intersection of movement, theater, and live sound and has been presented nationally.

Their work spans clown, sketch and performance art, and will never be quite the same twice. Featuring: Cecilia Della Peruti Zig Metzler Audrey Polinski Adriana Rondón Curt Seablom Josh Wilmott Showtimes Show 1 – 3:30pm Show 2 – 5:00pm A ticket to one show gets you into both. So join us on Saturday, May 23 for Unstable Attention Shift: An Increasingly Unreproducible Class Show! Tickets are just $5. Ticket link in my story. #adamsmith #theater #devising #lyrichyperion #clown

Our next First Date pairing is @mossterman & @gothictropic ! Marie Osterman is a movement theatre artist whose work combines spontaneous composition, contact improvisation, theatre, clown, and any other iteration of messing around and finding out what happens in front of others. They believe in a theatre of compassionate mischief and queer embodiment. You can find them teaching and organizing contact improvisation events around the west coast or looking at the moon.  Cecilia Della Peruti is a Los Angeles based creative working across music, film, and experimental media. Under her artist moniker Gothic Tropic, she has established herself as a distinctive voice in modern indie, creating kaleidoscopic, guitar-driven music that blends indie production with an exploratory, cinematic sensibility. She has collaborated with Beck, Charli XCX, and Amaarae, and highlighted by outlets including Interview, The Guardian, and Paper.

Registration for June's Practice is now open! Link in Bio. Every other month, we hold Practice. It's a space for performing artists of different disciplines to come to together and focus explicitly on process not product. This is a space without the any pressure to make anything final, entertaining, meaningful, or even good. We have fun. Space is limited to 12. Artists of all experience levels and styles welcome.

RERUN is back on 5/30! Link in bio! In a very special episode of Full House, Steph learns humility, Joey and Jesse learn to work together, and Michelle learns to read. And we all learn a valuable lesson. Competing for glory and a mediocre potato trophy are @starrymillz98 (returning champion), @maddiemutations , and @madd.halliday ! Our competitors will do their best to earn the ardor of the audience judge by completing challenges vaguely inspired by the show. Have mercy. Cut it out. How rude.

"there were berries" A silly, soft, weird play I wrote during the @sfneofuturists first year. Maybe even the 1st 6 months? The script says 2013. I originally performed it with @helloimalion when we were housed a space that was probably not up to code... or safe. Amy and I got to do it again during the @sfneofuturists gig at @elysiantheater in October 2025. Much more up to code and safe. Shout out to the audience members who held flashlights in our eyes so we could be seen.
