JSB Show this Friday 7/18 as part of 12 Ophelias

Monday, July 14th, 2008

Hello lovelies,

Hopefully you’ve heard a peep or two from us about this great theatre piece we’re involved with this summer at McCarren Park Pool - 12 Ophelias. We’re in the midst of press previews right now and we think we have a very entertaining show for you to enjoy.

I’ve got to admit, we’re so used to banjo strings and beer cans as our backdrop that it has taken this bunch of lunkheaded musicians a few extra beats to get used to the greasepaint and set design of the theatrical world. But the band’s got the flow, the cast are outstanding actors and actresses, and the crew works overtime making sure everything is ready and running properly.

We eagerly await opening night!

Come join us this Friday, July 18th for the official opening of 12 Ophelias! To help mark the occasion, get to the Pool early, as we’ll be playing a set of JSB music before and after the performance. We’ll play 4 shows like this during the the summer run so mark your calendar for these JSB set dates: 7/18, 8/8, 8/16, 8/22. The play will start nightly around 8pm, but on these dates the JSB will start playing @ 7pm. Don’t be late or Rosencrantz and Guildenstern will punish you mercilessly!

Because sometimes sleep is a rare gift,
The JSB
