Tonight, at 7:00, there’s going to be a show at the Dreamland Theater in Ypsilanti called Muerta goes to Space Prison. I don’t want to give too much away, but, as previously reported at MM.com, the story revolves around President Sarah Palin, and her decision in 2013 to banish all female daytime TV hosts to space. The piece, written by Chris Sandon of the Dirty Brothers, begins with an introduction by yours truly, in puppet form. If you want, you can see a scene here. You really should come out to Ypsi and see it in person, though.
Muerta Goes to Space Prison…. tonight

thanks for the heads up on this, mark! ended up making it over just before the show started.
Cool. I’m glad to know that someone saw the post in time.
For those who missed it, the show will be running again next Saturday at 7:00.
What about a play where the real Mark swallows the puppet Mark and the whole play takes place in his cavernous, cave-like belly?
Did you know that Peter Frampton’s young daughter Mia is an actress?
That’s interesting Kim, but I’m curious as to why you mention it here? Are you suggesting that she be flown in for next weekend’s show?
