Social buzz

Earlier today Yvonne invited everyone to tune in to the Regional NPR station (90.3) to hear the 'Sisters Rosensweig' talk about the production. Well in case you didn't get a chance to tune in, here is what you missed. WAMC: at Capital Rep (2012-01-27)www.publicbroadcasting.netALBANY, NY (WAMC) - Ray Graf speaks with Marcy McGuigan, Bernadette Quigley, and Yvonne Perry about their work in Capital Rep's production of Wendy Wasserstein's The Sisters Rosensweig.

Meet Michael Bush, the fantastic and talented director of THE SISTERS ROSENSWEIG. You might recall him from LESLIE UGGAMS/UPTOWN DOWNTOWN show.

'The acting was superb and direct, with special hats off to Marcy McGuigan. Hats off to all actors and actresses for a great job in a play that is long on dialogue.' - Rich DiMaggioReview: Sisters Rosensweigwww.didyouweekend.comWendy Wasserstein was an award-winning playright and author, who passed away at the way young age of 55. She brought to life numerous plays, but perhaps she is best known for Sisters Rosensweig, now playing at the Capital Repertory Theatre in Albany, New York. The Capital Rep is known for having som...

'Let’s define the word “funsy”, shall we? (Pronounced “fuhn-zee”) In the urban dictionary, which I rather enjoy, the word funsy is defined as “the sarcastic suggestion that something provides enjoyment or amusement”. It is a favorite expression of the character Gorgeous Rosensweig, one of the key characters in the play The Sisters Rosensweig, which I saw, and thoroughly enjoyed, at Capital Repertory Theatre last night.'Jeannine’s Warrior Chronicles, Days 14-19: Art, Theater, and my funsy life. - Real [Fit] Life - Jeanblog.timesunion.com“Funsy” and “pish, pish” are fun to say. If you want to learn how to use these terms properly and also make them mainstays in your somewhat stale vocabulary, get to Capital Rep and see The Sisters Rosensweig.

'What is truly charming, though, is the way the main actresses truly become like sisters by play’s end. There is salt and sweet in nearly every line the sisters pass between them. They know each other, like, well, siblings, and the actresses capture that feeling.' - Michael Eck, Times UnionThe Sisters Rosensweig @ Capital Repertory Theatre, 1/25/12 - Arts Talk blog.timesunion.comALBANY – Plays are good. Old-fashioned plays. People speaking to each other without chandeliers falling. There’s something even more magic when the only stage magic comes from characters talking, telling their lives, sharing their secrets and — theater being theater — being mean to each other.

The lovely Yvonne Perry joined us for our marketing meeting today, giving us the inside scoop on THE SISTERS ROSENSWEIG.
