I watched the latest episode of Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist last night and sobbed uncontrollably (like screaming into a pillow crying). The show paints grief in such an ugly way. Exactly like it is. Just disgusting. It's been 11 years since I lost my dad and my relentless grief impacts everyone around me, all the time. I am so sorry that my sadness rears its ugly head, often. I tweeted that, and then the magic of social media took over (the good side - cause there is one). Austin Winsberg - the man who created the series, replied to my tweet. I woke up to this: "Sorry for both our losses. F*** this shitty club." Jeepers, the man who created and produced a global award-winning series TWEETED ME LAST NIGHT, but more than the coolness of that was the sincerity of what he said. Zoeys .pdf — PDF (681.0 KB)

It's Thursday, and that means it's time for theater critic J. Wynn Rousuck to bring us her weekly review of one of the Baltimore-Washington region's thespian offerings, and this week it's First Date, a musical comedy now on stage at Spotlighter's Theatre. The minimalist romp finds blind-date novice Aaron (played by Reed DeLisle) set up with serial-dater Casey (Lindsey Litka), and their casual drink at a busy New York restaurant soon turns into a complex and comedic dinner for two that involves a suprisingly large cast of characters.First Date is stage-directed by Fuzz Roark, with book by Austin Winsberg, music and lyrics by Alan Zachary and Michael Weine, and musical direction by Michael Tan.First Date continues at Spotlighter's Theatre through Sunday January 21.

Austin Winsberg is a hilarious television (and Broadway!) writer/producer who made a name for himself at a very early age as one of the youngest show runners ever in network TV. He was 9. No, I kid, but he was freakin' young. That series lasted only two years, but the path he took to get there, and what he's done since, makes for fascinating conversation! Join us as we take you on fun-filled trek from the mean streets of Brentwood, CA to the hard-scrabble world of musical theatre summer camp in the Catskills to the dog-eat-dog existence of the Ivy League to...well, the no-kidding cutthroat battle of big-time television. Along the way we befriend Fred Savage, get fired from Punky Brewster, get championed by John Stamos, crack the code of Gossip Girl, try to solve a problem like Maria, make it to The Great White Way, conceive and look for that elusive thing called Happiness. Oh, and there's a great deal of finger-banging. Hilarious, inspiring, informative and ultra-snarky, enjoy Austin Winsberg... -LM

Who doesn't remember the awkwardness of a first date? First Date, the first new Broadway musical of the season playing at the Longacre Theatre, is a romantic comedy about a young couple meeting for the first time on a blind date. The book is by Austin Winsberg and the score is by Alan Zachary and Michael Weiner. Zachary Levi from the television series "Chuck" stars alongside Krysta Rodriguez, who appeared in the backstage-on-Broadway series "Smash." New York Times theater critic Charles Isherwood tells us if the two leading characters, Aaron, a nice Jewish guy who’s a banker, and Casey, “who falls for bad boys,” will survive this first date while pointing out some of the highlights in what is otherwise a familiar story.
