Theater Tonight: The Match.com Monologues
Posted by Alison Hallett on Mon, Dec 5, 2011 at 9:44 AM
Remember Phil Busse? (Now do you remember? How about now?)
Our erstwwhile news editor debuts a new project tonight: a staged reading of The Match.com Monologues, based on his online dating experiences.
It is a multi-media stage production about the thrills, chills and history of on-line dating—and, one man's fool-hearted attempt to find love there.Funny? Well, we think so. Offensive? Probably. (A-hem, adults only.) Entertaining? Most definitively.
The show is directed by Megan Ward (99 Ways to Fuck a Swan, My Name is Rachel Corrie) and performed by Tom Watson and Amanda Jensen; it runs tonight at theSomeday Lounge (125 NW 5th), 8 pm, free.
