Gnap! Theater Projects is pleased to announce a workshop production of their most ambitious project yet, 69 Love Scenes.

By taking the titles of all 69 songs from Stephin Merritt and crew's beloved triple album and running, very very loosely, with the themes and situations presented in the songs, Gnap! has created not one, but three unique evenings of performance to mirror the three-album nature of the band's opus.

Each week of the four week run will feature an evening of 23 scenes from the corresponding disc of the album (week one features disc one's song titles in order, etc.), with the final week devoted to running the three shows in order, one each night.

      I LOVED THIS SHOW! Sadly, I had never heard of Stephen Merritt or his songs. But after googling him up and watching a few videos, I knew this show was departure from traditional theater, and wanted to see it. Stephens songs inspired the writers and actors to conjure up some refreshingly honest and amusing loves scenes about ALL of loves myriad illusions, foibles, inspirations and riches. I was particularly impressed with choice made in the crowd or party scenes. Each cast member plays a diversity of roles and seemed to be having a great time with them all. 69 Love Scenes is enchantingly unpredictable, amusingly honest and engagingly intimate. I plan to see parts 1 and 3 the next two weeks. Hope to see you there! Collapse
