1) ASASE YAA CULTURAL ARTS FOUNDATION LAUNCHES FIRST EVER
CROWDFUNDING CAMPAIGN
ON MIGHTYCAUSE PLATFORM
TO SUPPORT
YOUTH SUMMER EMPLOYMENT INITIATIVE
BEGINNING JUNE 15
Brooklyn-based Asase Yaa Cultural Arts has announced plans to launch their first ever crowdfunding campaign, the Asase Yaa Summer Youth Employment Initiative," to raise $50,000 to fund summer employment for 20 teenage youth (ages 14-19) from June 29- August 7, 2020.
The Mightycause crowdfunding campaign will be launched on June 15 and run through August 15. Donating tiers include, $500, $250, $100, $50, $25, or any donation with a minimum of $5.00. All donations are tax-deductible and 100% of the funds raised will be allocated to support the Initiative.
The Asase Yaa School of the Arts constituency is comprised of 100% minorities. The Youth Summer Employment Initiative is designed to fill the void left by the termination of the State Youth Employment Program, which had previously provided summer employment for youth throughout New York City.
Asase Yaa's youth employees will be working weekly assisting the Foundation teachers and staff in daily operational activities such as event planning, financial budget forecasts, and researching other cultural arts organizations. They will also be provided with training in resume development, the operation of non-profits as a business, and understanding organizational programmatic impact. Participants in the employment initiative will also work with the Foundation's 14th Annual Children's Summer Art Camp, which attracts 80-100 youth annually. The day camp is a six-week program that is scheduled from June 29 - August 7, 2020.
Asase Yaa is committed to following all prevailing COVID-19 preventative and protective protocols and ensuring their counselors have a fun, safe, and financially rewarding summer.

BROADWAY VIRTUAL
A NEW SUBSIDIARY SPECIALIZING IN STREAMED AND RECORDED CONTENT
Emmy, Olivier, and three-time Tony-Award winning producer Jim Kierstead (Kierstead Productions, Inc.,) and Broadway United have announced the launch of a new company, Broadway Virtual, a subsidiary specializing in streamed and recorded content, as well as the education of artists in order to continue development of their work using technology created to develop virtual theatre-related content for streaming and film. The focus of the company will be to synergistically bring the worlds of theatre, film, and television to work together. The company is being formed to educate and help artists, and not-for-profits to integrate modern technologies into their development process in order to help facilitate the creation of their work whether the eventual goal for the piece is live theatre, film, streaming, or a combination thereof.The company’s first endeavor has been partnering with The Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts in Miami, FL. Kierstead says, “It’s been my pleasure to partner with my Broadway United business partner, William Fernandez, to create content for the Arsht Center’s ‘Miami Monologues’ series where local playwrights and actors team up to film a recording of exceptional monologues from their plays.” Broadway Virtual has been releasing weekly monologues, adding to the list of exceptional work presented by the Arsht Center’s “Arsht At Home” series -
https://www.arshtcenter.org/
Broadway Virtual has a full roster of projects in the works including a fundraiser for New York City-based not-for-profit “The Sol Project,” serving LatinX writers, where a new play reading will be streamed that Broadway United is developing by Jake Cline and Vanessa Garcia (Amparo) entitled Jenna and The Whale. Also, a virtual play reading series is in the works for this summer entitled “Play ON” featuring plays from notable playwrights performed by top notch Broadway talent. And Kierstead suggests that a film version of the hit one-woman show that Broadway United presented this past February at Chicago’s Victory Gardens Theatre entitled The Adult in the Room – Nancy Pelosi in the House is in the works. He states, “We were ready to bring the show Off-Broadway this summer, but clearly that is not in the cards. But we are not about to let this pandemic keep us down. We will proceed in whatever way we are able, for now.” Broadway Virtual is partnering with the New York City Council to create a celebration video for the Heritage of Pride Festival for Pride month which marks the 50th Anninversary of the Pride Parade.

3) FROM HERE, A NEW MUSICAL CENTERED ON THE TRAGIC 2016 SHOOTING AT PULSE NIGHTCLUB, TO MARK ANNIVERSARY WITH VIRTUAL PRESENTATION TO BENEFIT EQUALITY FLORIDA
On June 12, Equality Florida, Florida’s largest LGBTQ organization, will present a full-length video presentation of FROM HERE, a new musical, as part of the annual #HonorThemWithAction Campaign. This annual call-to-action commemorates the June 12th anniversary of the tragic shooting at Pulse Nightclub in 2016; this year’s focus is getting out the vote in November 2020. FROM HERE, a musical centered on the Pulse tragedy, will be presented on fromhere.com and eqfl.org/fromhere starting at 9:00 PM EDT on June 12, 2020 and will be available through June 28, 2020. Filmed during the World Premiere performances at Central Florida Community Arts earlier this year, this event features a high-quality live recording of the full-length musical, fully-staged in front of an audience. The presentation will be free-of-charge, and patrons will be encouraged to contribute to the #HonorThemWithAction campaign. Photos and more available here.
FROM HERE (Book/Music/Lyrics by Donald Rupe; Orchestrations and Arrangements by Jason M. Bailey) “is and isn’t about the Pulse tragedy,” according to the Orlando Sentinel. It’s about a “fractured relationship between a mother and her gay son,” the Central Florida Scene agrees. Daniel (Blake Aburn), a 30-something gay man, is on a quest to find love and fulfillment despite a tumultuous relationship with his mother (Sarah-Lee Dobbs). As Daniel hilariously ends one relationship with ex-lover-turned-best-friend Michael (Peter Heid), he meets a new love interest, portrayed by Erick Perafan. Act 1 is essentially a comedy, accentuated with sarcasm, ‘shade,’ and the kind of humor which pervades the LGBTQ community, but “the show takes a decidedly serious turn when we arrive at the night of June 12, 2016 and the shootings at Pulse Nightclub,” Central Florida Scene recalls. “While none of the major characters in the show happened to be at the club that night, they all bond together,” reflecting lovingly on Pulse nightclub, “a place where people discovered themselves and met the friends that eventually became their own surrogate families.” FROM HERE provides a glimpse into the lives of gay people living in Orlando in the aftermath of the Pulse shooting and follows Daniel on his path toward hope and resilience.

Fuller was one of the most celebrated performers of her era, inventing a radically new art form that merged performance and technology in unprecedented ways. One of the "mothers" of modern dance, Fuller also exerted a strong influence on many artistic movements from Art Nouveau to Cubism and Futurism. Sperling, considered the foremost contemporary interpreter of Fuller's genre, presents an engaging and richly illustrated lecture on Fuller's vision, legacy and relevance in today's technologically-driven world. Join the conversation with Q & A following the talk.

The Flea Theater announces Anne Washburn (Mr. Burns, a post-electric play; Shipwreck) to lead a Pataphysics Playwriting Workshop in June 2020. Pataphysics Playwriting Workshops are an intimate, intensive opportunity for writers to create new work and explore new ways of writing under the guidance of master playwrights. Washburn’s Pataphysics workshop titled Make Good Politics and Bad Art and Bad Politics and Good Art—a workshop in virtual activism and the civic function of theater will be offered online on June 13, 14, 20, and 21. Applications are being accepted through May 17, 2020.
Named for Alfred Jarry’s science of imaginary solutions, Pataphysics workshops are a gymnasium for the writing brain: curious, particular, and rigorous. Students enter with blank sheets of paper, and leave with pages of notes, fragments, scenes, even entire plays unlike anything they would have written on their own.
To apply, participants should submit an application online at www.theflea.org/for-artists/

8) Theater Resources Unlimited
Announces
the First Virtual Presentation of
2020 TRU VOICES NEW PLAYS READING SERIES
Featuring Two World Premiere Readings
June 14 and June 17, 2020
Theater Resources Unlimited (TRU) announces the first virtual presentation of its
2020 TRU Voices New Plays Reading Series, presented with generous support from The Storyline Project. The series, a benefit for Theater Resources Unlimited to help make up for financial losses due to COVID-19, will take place on Sunday, June 14, 2020 at 2:30pm EDT and on Wednesday, June 17, 2020 at 2:30pm EDT. Information and ticketing can be found through onthestage.com at https://www.onthestage.com/
The series will comprise world premiere readings of two timely and resonant plays: No Entry by Marc Paykuss, which follows Jews who were displaced after being liberated from Nazi camps and placed in interim detention camps, and Disbelief, a Cassandra Tale by Garret Jon Groenveld, which uses the Cassandra legend to catalog the struggle of women being believed and having their voices heard.
This year's TRU Voices Series is being performed under an agreement with the Performers' Unions through the Theatre Authority. Tickets are being offered for free during this time of crisis, with the hope that those who are able will support TRU with tax deductible donations.
World Premiere Reading
No Entry
by Marc Paykuss
Produced by James Simon
Directed by Melody Bates
Sunday, June 14 at 2:30pm EDT
No Entry is a fictional historical play centering around a group of liberated Polish Jews in a displaced persons camp, facing the challenges of rebuilding their lives, and waiting for the world to open its doors to them.
World Premiere Reading
Disbelief, a Cassandra Tale
by Garret Jon Groenveld
directed by Jess Cummings
Wednesday, June 17 at 2:30pm EDT
Disbelief is the story of Apollo's gift to Cassandra, rethought for today, from her point of view. This updated telling adds a contemporary perspective on how women are perceived and controlled and disbelieved (or dismissed). Scintillating language explores the parallels of belief in a higher power, with belief in a powerful man, versus a woman of power, struggling to be believed. And for the first time the two most famous women of the Trojan War, Helen of Troy and Cassandra, actually speak to each other, without a man around at all. The play draws a gentle parallel to our 2016 election, and a candidate who told the truth, was systematically undermined and disbelieve.
9) CREATOR OF THE VIRAL VIDEO “BEFORE YOU CALL THE COPS” PRESENTS
THE “THIS IS WHO I AM” CHALLENGE
Nashville-based actor Tyler Merritt of The Tyler Merritt Project and creator of two viral videos, “Before You Call the Cops” and “The Playlist,” proudly presents the THIS IS WHO I AM CHALLENGE, a call to anyone who is an advocate for change, anyone who is willing to fight for what’s right. This is a way for protestors to mark themselves safe, and also a way for those who are trying to change the world and those who are called to serve and protect, to get to know each other better and find allies.
How to participate in the THIS IS WHO I AM CHALLENGE:
Upload a one-minute video to all of your social media channels with the hashtags #thisiswhoiam and
#thetylermerrittproject. Open the video by saying, “This is who I am.” Then, share five things that are significant to who you are. End the video by saying, “This is who I am.”
