Interview: Writer and Performer Jean Franzblau on MY MOTHER DOESN'T KNOW I'M KINKY
by Shari Barrett
- Jun 8, 2024
In May 2014, I heard about the new solo show Coming Out Kinky written and performed
by Jean Franzblau in which she related her personal journey to sexual self-acceptance. In it, she portrayed 20 characters in her sexual memoir adventure story for curious and open-minded adults to enjoy. So when I heard Jean was bringing her updated play My Mother Doesn’t Know I’m Kinky to the Hollywood Fringe Festival this month, I decided to speak with her about how it’s has been updated, how much her mother really does know, and her plans for taking it around the world as a way to spread the word about how important it is to “know thyself.”

Review: TWO ARTISTS IN PRISON at Teatro Paraguas Second Stage
by Jackie Camborde
- May 29, 2024
“Most theater companies choose their plays. Grottesco’s reveal themselves.”
Thus begins the director’s notes for Theater Grottesco’s Two Artists in Prison, now playing at Teatro Paraguas’ Second Stage space. The play, co-directed by Grottesco Founder John Flax and Apollo Garcia Orellana, takes place in a dystopian future where artists are locked away at the hands of an authoritarian regime. The prisoners are forced to tell their captors stories on a daily basis; if they are entertaining, they get to remain, if not, the consequences are dire.
Two Artists in Prison runs through June 9th.
