Mailbag!

Dear Tim Israel,

How do they know my name?


New York Theatre Workshop would like to invite you to a performance of
HORIZON, the New York Premiere of a new play created, written and
composed by Rinde Eckert, directed by David Schweizer. We think this
show would be of great interest to you and the readers of your blog.

'readers' - that's you, Mom!

Rinde Eckert, an Obie-winner for AND GOD CREATED GREAT WHALES and 2007
Pulitzer Prize finalist for Drama, is renowned as a writer, composer,
director and performer whose Opera/New Music Theatre productions have
toured extensively. In HORIZON, a work for three actors loosely based on
the teachings of theologian Reinhold Niebuhr, Eckert plays Reinhart
Poole, an unconventional theologian and teacher of ethics at a seminary.
Reinhart, who has been pressured to resign by dogmatic powers within his
church, works all night on his last lecture. He also talks with his
wife, argues with the ghost of his brother, remembers conversations, and
indulges his hobby: writing a comic allegory about two ageless masons
who've been building the same church foundation for 1750 years. In
story, song, movement, and music Reinhart, his family, and his strange
masons inhabit a visually brilliant landscape, a moving and funny
horizon.

This is a lot. I hope you noticed that and stopped reading, too.


Attached is a press release with more information about Rinde, David,

For a minute I thought it was someone I didn't know, running a google search of theatre blogs.
