So it has been ages since, I last added to this blog. Life, alas, has been crazy these past months. However, as the year comes ever closer to its conclusion, I am back in the game and I have some exciting news to share. As you know this year I have been throwing myself into both my solo performance career as Seattle's Limelight Loverboy, Fosse Jack, and alongside my dear friend and fellow burlesquer, Polly Wood, have been producing cabarets and variety shows on a monthly basis. The Jack & Wood Show: A Neo Vaudevillian Cabaret has had nine awesome shows this year, as well as our first charity event; STRIP POKER A Trivia Game Show. This month Polly and I are bringing a new show (the first of a Jack & Wood holiday tradition), and charity show to The Jewel Box Theater at the Rendezvous in BellTown...
RUDOLPH! is an adaptation of the old holiday, clay-mated special about Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, a movie that has long been a tradition in my family. This cheesy, politically incorrect, holiday feature though outdated still has a message that is important for us to hear today. Misfits have a place to.
Rudolph and his friend the misfit elf Herby are told that because they don't fit in, they don't belong. Rudolph and Herby set off on their own, and after meeting the jolly, and welcoming prospector Yukon Cornelius, journey to a land of misfits, all the while on the run from the Abominable Snow Monster of the North. But you cannot hide from your problems for ever and in time the misfits return, and in a twist become heroes.
With a stellar cast of Jack & Wood regulars and a couple of new faces, RUDOLPH! is guaranteed to entertain.
CAST:
- Fosse Jack as Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
- Polly Wood as Hermione the Misfit Elf
- Sam Petit as the Narrator
- John Huddlestun as Donner/King Moonracer
- Becky Peterson as Missus Donner
- Qevin Smith as Fireball
- Tulula Von Luptuous as Santa
- Adra Boo as The Head Elf
- Ashley Coates as The Charlie in the Box
- Stella D'Letto as The Abominable Snow Monster of the North
- The YES Sisters as The Depressed Dolly and her Girl.
With the recent suicides by LGBT teens throughout the country, I feel that RUDOLPH! is especially poignant this holiday, and Polly agrees with me. We will be donating a portion of the ticket sales to Lambert House, a support organization that works with LGBT youths.
Come join Polly Wood, our star studded cast and myself on November 29th (7:00pm AND 8:30pm) for Jack & Wood's First Annual Holiday Special; RUDOLPH! and help us start a new holiday tradition.
Love,
Fosse Jack
