In other news, our own Michael Patrick Flanagan Smith played the 16th Annual Lower East Side Festival of the arts last Friday.  Mike sang a few Woody Guthrie songs for a packed audience and created a buzz for our upcoming show!  Great job Mike!!
The Trailer Shoot for Woody Guthrie Dreams went extremely well. We've begun the editing process and have been thrilled to collaborate with the talented gentlemen of Tie Day Media http://www.tiedaymedia.com/ in putting together such a polished promotional piece for the upcoming play in September. There are some pictures of the shoot below with the fully edited trailer to be completed and posted by the end of May.

"A folk song is what's wrong and how to fix it or it could be 
who's hungry and where their mouth is or 
who's out of work and where the job is or 
who's broke and where the money is or 
who's carrying a gun and where the peace is" - Woody Guthrie
