THE SCORE
ALL THE WORLD’S A FRICKIN’ STAGE
The director slept with half the cast, your lighting designer is homi-
cidal and that bastard from the Daily News just panned the show in
his column. You’ll be lucky on opening night if the cast remembers
their lines, nobody mentions the Scottish Play and the scenery doesn’t
fall down mid-performance. But hey, the art is all that’s important,
right?
Break A Leg! is a tribute to the grand traditions and superstitions of the
Theatre from the casting couch to the Great White Way.
MOVIE NIGHT
Waiting for Guffman, Slings & Arrows, Extras, Noises Off, An Awfully Big
Adventure
A SPECIAL NOTE
Special thanks to all the theatres we have worked at over the years
that have given us inspiration for this Playset. Almost everything in
here may have actually happened to one or both of us during our time
working onstage and backstage, including the big box of swords with
no lock on it and the severed inger.
Also thanks to one particular production of Uncle Vanya and to the
theater departments at Columbia College and Northwestern Univer-
sity for twisting us into the thespians we are today.
