 We have a project on the slide. So we have worked on a presentation. And when you watch it up there, it's the department that will say, there you go. I'm in a bigger building. I had to either live or reside in New Jersey, or have some New Jersey roots. We did not tell these writers what to write it out. So the themes and connections that are made are sort of directly reflecting on their voices in your community. This is our way of saying this is what the artists in your community are thinking about responding to right now, and we're reflecting it back to you. Tonight's proceeds will benefit the New Brunswick Theater Festival's educational program. So thank you for being here with us, and thank you for buying in. And I'd like Jendering to talk about what that is. So basically the New Brunswick Theater Festival, for the last couple of years, has sent teaching artists into New Brunswick High School to do, offer students the opportunity to work with professional artists. See what we do, see all of the different, you know, fields that there are avenues to explore in the theater. So not just acting, design, stage management, playwriting. We've done Shakespeare workshops. This year we're looking at expanding our program and offering more sort of a wider array of subject matter. It's really exciting. And we have one of our alumni here tonight, Sean Moore, who's interned with us. I don't know where he is. So do theater. Yeah, and I will say that we do this festival all over the country. We're doing this festival in the cities this year. And sometimes the proceeds earned are, like, a token for the community. And in this case, the money will actually be going directly to the teaching artists. So thank you for supporting them. And without further ado, the second annual New Brunswick Theater. You can't say what you want to say in half that time. You have no idea how to edit. You don't. Cut to the chase, people. Cut to the chase. Yup. Oh, Jesus. Here. Stop whining. Fucking village. Oh, I just saw it. You can't be bald. I get you ground up real fine so you wouldn't fuck up the ice. Rush is yours, baby. But you ain't here now, but we're going to do good by you. Take care of Maggie and the kid and everything. Even though she ain't really talking to us right now. No, shut up, Tony. I love you, bro. Why not? Because you could be busy. Time of year. Damn right. Well, you need to be hassling him. What's going on? How much does he have going on? A while ago. What? The whole Todd thing. It was a while ago. So what? It happened. Todd was here one day and all of a sudden he's fucking there. You said that wouldn't be a problem. It won't. It won't. You say something that is going to completely under me that we have yet to meet. And there's comfort in that. I'm glad I have it. I would rather... Would you say you're going to the diner and get breakfast? Yeah. Yeah, that'd be great. Where was you, Lawrence? We had a farm in some of our AZIERs. F-R-A-S-E-Rs. Scottish. So were you. I thought you knew. They were going to send your grandma, but she'll be here soon. I have some paperwork from my office. Well, you see, technically it's not your house. You're just renting. I'll explain everything. I'm comfortable if you talk to your grandma first. I'll be back. I'm sorry. It was really nice to see you again. I was actually going to have you in about ten seconds. I forgot I was carrying six. I just got hit by a bus. I wasn't. Are you mad at me about something? I was getting your things and carrying your packages. I'm not saying. This isn't opinion, but it's not just any old opinion. My teacher bent it. Report to the owners here to pick you up. It's an opinion that you can prove using facts. Hi, Reese Richards. Report to Mr. Manning's office. It's an opinion that you can prove using statistics. If you don't have that... At least that can better support you on your journey to Cuba. It's not me. You feel badly about yourself, don't you? Well, yeah. Because Brian Daniels and his folks would be calling each other trash every day for the last three years. And I know anyone who's willing to escape from a sports team. If I don't see it, I can't do anything about it. We can't allow punching in this school. How about the place? It wasn't an insane style. It was just nuts. I was here. It's just a plant. I need to get home. We'll talk about your paper. I won't. A metaphor? No, no. You can't use sex as a metaphor for sex. I would say something like, we played hide-the-salami if you know what I mean. She's a vegetarian. We went back to my place and had sex. If you know what I mean. Rachel and I actually danged for a little while. I was going out with her because I wanted to make you hate her. And I knew she was the one for you. It was just difficult for me because I am a... When I did that, I knew I hurt you. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. She looks exactly like my sister. At least that's... I think I'm going to be an online influence for the cause. Wait, wait, wait. I tweet every ten minutes. It doesn't give people's attention. How did you find out about my protest? A friend forwarded it to me on Facebook. My outreach reached you. Yeah, but you don't have time. I will. You stay. It's got to start somewhere. That he ran into his high school sweetheart on the subways after work and they reconnected and realized that they were meant to be together. And then he just left me. Debbie? That's not a lovely signal. Drive carefully when the roads are icy. Peace and joy you've been looking for. Thanks. If my father passes, I'll let you know. Please do. I love you, babe. Love you too, P. I'm sorry we couldn't make things work out. Me too. But this is one other thing. Yeah? It's nothing really. It was. Well, I didn't fuck your roommate. I didn't fuck your roommate. No, I thought about it a couple of times. Oh well, live and learn, right? I should go now. Yeah, take care of yourself. Goodbye. Goodbye. Bitch, say that pepper spray is not that bad for you because maybe we should tell them. Looks like he got some... Learning these inspirational stories? Yeah, you should be writing. No, I... Also, my computer has been in the hospital, so... They have these things called pens. She thinks that I completely forgot about our anniversary. She's going to be so surprised. Oh yeah, we have just... Make sure you get her reaction. Got it? Yeah, good. Make sure you get it. It was the best for us, and I trusted you to bid on it. Save your money. Get a little apartment where the kids can play, where you can breathe, where the sun rises without dread filling your stomach. No, I've lost everything. That's where the future begins. You'll see. Stars in movies where she steps on raw meat with her bare feet when she sells them to fetishes. I suffer from dementia. You can't remember any of your names. Your head gets run over by a train, and someone takes a picture of it and puts it on a web... We'll miss all that loud awful noise soon enough. That's what you say. You gotta give it time. I'm listening, Kate. And he said what to that? Did you say back? You called your partner a fat dumbass? Listen to a fucking thing we've worked on. Who should you be focusing on? Type 2 diabetes. If your partner wants to stuff his face with donuts like some cop cliché, that's his business. Now, did he take his weapon out and force you to eat that crap? Who could have found someplace for him to get his bacon? Well, you've got some nice fresh fruit and low-fat cottage cheese. Yes? Now, John. I helped more law enforcement officials manage their week. And all I'm asking you for is commitment. All right, let's talk about lunch. Like, I have a word, slightly misspelled, sped out in a foreign language. I'm sorry. It's the same place we're keeping, no. Personally, but... I never... Oh, they say that. What? I said... Deep breaths now. Here we are. Music. Stuff like that. Pipely. Closer, Queenie. Let all mirrors show you truth. See? My nose is the same as it ever was. It is wider, much better to breathe with, my dear. You are confused. Please, my Queen. Mirror knows what is coming. All right, Mirror? Look deeply, my Queen. Look past your future. Conceit it by perfection. You pass on. No, not your daughter for what she is. You eternal... I don't get a chance after what I've done, but they... And very soon. I'm sorry. I have another patient. Shoot me? The bullet person... Have enough money for a baby. I told him he should have thought of that when we were in bed. Jess will be fine at college. I still cold every day. Sometimes just to hear a voice on the answering machine. At 25 years, they threw us a wedding anniversary. At 50 years, I left him. In the snow. It's something they didn't make a movie out of. They tried to bring in the counseling years ago, and they were futures. They're just funny. Well, whatever it was.
