WITCHES!? IN SALEM?! by Puffs author Matt Cox premieres March 16-30at HERE in New York City

Matt Cox, writer of the long-running Off-Broadway hit wizard comedy "Puffs, or Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic", is back with another play also involving witchcraft. WITCHES!? IN SALEM?! performs at HERE Arts Center beginning March 16th, 2024.

Welcome to Salem Village, 1692. A bad year to visit. Here, wealthy landowners want your land, local magistrates want your confession, unpopular reverends want your respect but more importantly your firewood, and everyone wants someone to be punished for something. Meanwhile, several local children try to make sense of a hysteria they find themselves at the center of. Oh! And the newest villagers, the Bloodkravens are here too. They are confused about it all.

WITCHES!? IN SALEM?! is darkly comedic, yet (mostly) historically accurate take on the Salem Witch Trials and all the (mostly) historically accurate horrors which may occur when populism runs rampant, injustice is a day to day occurrence, and a rigid religious minority sets the laws of the land. You know, old timey problems. A companion, or an alternative, to a certain other Salem play you probably read in high school.

“WITCHES!? IN SALEM?! is the most exciting kind of comedy: sharp, hilarious, and appallingly timely.” Says director Rachel Dart. “I could not be more delighted to work with this phenomenal cast and creative team on what is probably the funniest play there is about the brutal consequences of religious fanaticism!”

WITCHES!? IN SALEM?! stars Jessie Cannizarro (Puffs), Nick Carrillo (Puffs) , AJ Ditty (Puffs, Paddington Gets in a Jam!), Carolina Đỗ (Linda Vista, Grand Horizon), Aaron Parker Fouhey (Night of the Living N-Word!!! at Fringe NYC, The Christmas Tree Farm at Mile Square Theatre), James Fouhey (Puffs), Jake Keefe (Jesus Christ Tater Tot, Puffs), Andy Miller (Puffs, The Mysteries at The Flea), Jessica Mosher (Murder on the Links, “Mr. Robot”) and Jordan Sison (The Wolves at Hippodrome Theatre). Scenic, Costume and Puppet design is provided by K.C. McGeorge and Noah Ruff. Original Score by Brian Metolius. Stage Managed by Vanessa Rebeil.

WITCHES!? IN SALEM?! will be presented at 8:30pm on Sat 3/16, Tues 3/19, Fri 3/22, Sat 3/23, Tues 3/26, Thurs 3/28, Fri 3/29 and Sat 3/30 with 4:00 pm matinees on Sun 3/17 and Sat 3/23 at HERE (145 Sixth Ave, New York, NY 10013.). Tickets are available at www.witchesinsalem.com.

Matt Cox (Puffs; or Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic & Magic, The Kapow-i GoGo Sagas, Guy Choiceman Decides To Save America: The Chooseical: Where YOU Do The Chooses) is a playwright, actor, improviser, sound designer, and former comic book retail associate based in New York City.

Comic-Con for all

Updated: 7/26/20 12:59 p.m. ET

I’m going to miss not going to San Diego this year for five days of celebrity sightings, swag, sleeplessness, and snaking lines. But the good news for anyone who has never gotten a chance to experience the unique craziness that is Comic-Con is that the event will be free online for everyone from Wednesday, July 22, to Sunday, July 26! The official information is a little overwhelming, so here is a guide to getting the most out of Comic-Con@Home.

Panels

No camping out for Hall H necessary! Over 350 panels have been pre-recorded, and they will be released on the Comic-Con YouTube channel at certain times over the course of the five days. The majority of panels will be available beyond July 26.

The full schedule of panels is now posted, but it will be continually updated. Given the sheer volume of information, I recommend viewing on a computer rather than your phone. I also recommend viewing by day so that you can see the descriptions and viewing links.

You can create a MySCHED account to keep track of the panels that interest you. I just put them on my Google calendar. Keep in mind that all times are PDT. My SDCC group created a Slack so that we can have viewing parties and chat about the panels.

Now that the logistics are out of the way, here are some of my suggestions for panels to check out.

GeekED: Re-storied: Re-imagining creative privilege Wednesday, July 22, 3-4 p.m. PDT Panelists who work in higher education, theatre, and gaming will discuss how the narrative world is changing to include more diverse experiences.

Star Trek Universe Virtual Panel Thursday, July 23, 10-11 a.m. PDT There will be a discussion with the casts and producers of “Star Trek: Discovery,” new animated series “Star Trek: Lower Decks,” and “Star Trek: Picard.”

DC@Home Day One and Day Two Friday, July 24, 10-11 a.m. PDT, and Saturday, July 25, 11 a.m.-12 p.m. PDT Some DC Comics legends such as Brian Michael Bendis and Jim Lee will give you the scoop on what’s in store for your favorite heroes and villains.

Marvel Comics: Next Big Thing Friday, July 24, 11 a.m.-12 p.m. PDT Marvel editor-in-chief C.B. Cebulski will discuss what’s in store with comics writers and editors such as Tom Brevoort and Al Ewing.

AMC’s The Walking Dead Friday, July 24, 1-2 p.m. PDT Moderated by Chris Hardwick, this panel will highlight the forthcoming standalone episode “A Certain Doom” and feature the cast and producers.

Building Your Own Themyscira: Connecting With Other Geeky Bosses Friday, July 24, 6-7 p.m. PDT Jordan Ellis of Jordandené and “The Sartorial Geek” will discuss networking and finding your community with Robyn Warren of Geek Girl Strong, Matt Cox of “Puffs” and “Kapow-i GoGo,” comics marketer Jazzlyn Stone, and Rose DelVecchio of FanMail.

Blast Off with Disney+’s “The Right Stuff” Saturday, July 25, 1-2 p.m. PDT NASA astronaut Dr. Mae Jemison moderates this panel about the first scripted series for Disney+ from National Geographic. This show follows the early days of the U.S. space program. Much of the cast and crew will participate. I’m excited for Colin O’Donoghue (Captain Hook from “Once Upon a Time”) as Captain Gordon Cooper.

Careers in Geek Fashion Sunday, July 26, 4-5 p.m. PDT This is an admittedly shameless plug for the panel moderated by my friend, GeekFold founder Lisa Granshaw. Professionals from multiple aspects of geek fashion will discuss their careers and the impact of coronavirus on the industry.

Exhibit hall/exclusives

You can view the “exhibit hall” map and a full list of exhibitors, which will go live with interactive links on Wednesday, July 22. My understanding is that all exclusive merchandise will be available directly through the vendors, and there is no Comic-Con exclusives portal, which was used to assign timeslots in years past. Since the portal also used to serve as a full list of the exclusives, your best bet for finding out what’s for sale is probably the comprehensive SDCC Unofficial Blog.

Be sure to check out the LEGO “booth,” which is offering a chance to design your own minifigure and comic book, which will be emailed to you.

Other activities

The masquerade is always a signature event of Comic-Con. Submissions to the Comic-Con@Home Virtual Masquerade have closed, but the Masquerade website will go live on the @comicconathome Tumblr on the evening of Friday, July 24.

The Comic-Con@Home Art Show (sans auction) will be viewable on the @comicconathome Tumblr starting Wednesday, July 22.

Comic-Con@Home also created some fan activities to help you recreate the Con experience at home. There are challenges such as the Cosplay Challenge, badges and signs that you can print yourself, sound clips of the announcements, and recipes so you can create your own hospitality suite.

“Off-sites”

My favorite part of Comic-Con actually has been the off-site activations outside the convention center, where you can have unique experiences like a “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” escape room. Fortunately, some networks have found ways to have virtual activations this year.

Adult Swim Con Thursday, July 23-Saturday, July 25, 4-10 p.m. PT Adult Swim will have online experiences such as behind-the-scenes looks at “Rick and Morty” and “Robot Chicken,” including a Q&A with the casts and crews of both shows. Check the website for the full schedule of events.

Amazon Virtual Con Thursday, July 23-Sunday, July 26 You can watch exclusive announcements, game reveals, live drawings, costume how-tos, and more. There are also interactive experiences, such as a “Hanna” escape room.

FX Unlocked This site features a virtual pyramidal structure that you can swipe to explore different TV show experiences. For example, you can test your “American Horror Story” trivia knowledge or play a “What We Do in the Shadows” game.

FutureTechLive! You can download an immersive World Builders activation for Windows, Windows VR, or Mac.

Let me know if there’s any other information you want, and I’ll update this post. Enjoy Comic-Con@Home!

It’s been a crazy busy month with soooo many art commitments colliding during October and sometimes I’ve felt like my head might explode all over the studio. Kapow! I missed a couple of prompts and I have a couple unfinished but I’m determined to try to complete #mabsdrawlloweenclub even if I don’t make it by the end of the month. I fly out to the US on the 9th November for Dcon in LA and the opening of my show with @sheridebow and @kurtisrykovich at @bashfineart in Las a Vegas, so I’m trying to finish a good many things before then and also get organised to go! I will upload any unsold sketches from #mabsdrawlloweenclub this month to my website but if you are after one I’d purchase before November 5 so I have time to ship before I leave. Here’s my villains started. Last year I did Gogo Yubari and I couldn’t resist sketching her again and adding in Oh Ren Ishii. I love that scene from Kill Bill with all the blood and guts. So over the top...

As a member of what is decidedly the target audience (millennials, geeks, and millennial geeks), I expected to enjoy the PIT’s Kapow-I Gogo marathon. I expected to laugh, to have a good time, and to enjoy the Cereal Bar offered alongside the performance as a throwback to watching weekend cartoons in your pajamas.

What I didn’t expect was how attached to the characters I would be by the end of the marathon four and a half hour session, or how quickly the entire afternoon would go by, or how much fun I would have. I definitely didn’t expect to feel like I could sit through another hour of stories from this talented and enthusiastic group of performers, but I did.

It may not be for everyone, but if Kapow-I GoGo’s adventures sounds like it may be something you would enjoy, it probably is. Warning: you may end up feeling a lot more then what you expected to feel. Characters recur and reappear throughout the pieces, plots build on each other to the ultimate showdown at the end, and just try to catch all of the references to eighties, nineties, and oughties geek culture. I especially enjoyed how pared down and simple the production was. With such intense and complicated concepts and plots, it’s easy to get lost amidst costumes, props, and set pieces, but this is not the case here. Kapow-I Gogo’s minimal set pieces and simply designed props and costumes portray very ridiculous things, but nonetheless the audiences knows exactly what they are supposed to imagine in their place.

Also, Giggle made a basket. That was awesome. Brought the house down.

Also, on a more serious note, Kapow-I GoGo’s relationships were such a welcome surprise, and very well treated within the show. My guest and I were very impressed that the audience did not catcall or make any rude comments or sounds at Kapow-I’s on stage kisses with her love interests. Made me feel better about the human race in general.

The Kapow-I GoGo marathon will be returning to the PIT on Sunday, October 4th at 1:00pm, Sunday October 11th at 6:00pm, and Sunday, November 1st, 1:00pm. Purchase your tickets here!

“Her name is Kapow-i GoGo. And she's going to save The World. Again. And again. And again. Matt Cox's Kapow-i GoGo is a 4 1/2 hour live-action comedy mash up of Dragon Ball Z, graphic novels, space operas, the Final Fantasy series, and every after-school cartoon you watched in the mid-to-late '90s. It's a geek's Coast of Utopia.

A nerd Gatz....with cooler hair....and more robotic appendages.

Kapow-i GoGo is a theatrical experience built for an audience used to binge-watching Netflix. It began as one of the most popular plays at The Flea Theater's #serials@theflea. For the PIT run, the show has expanded into a 4 1/2 hour comedy marathon akin to watching three seasons of your favorite TV show on Netflix. It take our plucky blue-haired fighter from ages 14 to 32, following her journey to collect all the legendary Hydra Crystals, to the World's Martial Arts Tournament, to far-flung future dystopias and fights with power-mad cybernetic generals, giant robots, mountain monsters and assorted other final bosses. And, of course, saving the princess. Now in its fourth extension, the show features a breakfast cereal buffet, trading cards, and a plethora of other surprises throughout the day. Costumes encouraged.”

Can a Broadway belter defy a Scotch Bonnet while she’s Defying Gravity? Will a drop of Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce make a juggler drop his pins? How much heat turns a Durang monologue into a real Actor’s Nightmare? Join hotpeppertheater and our brave cast of guests from across the world of theater, cabaret, and burlesque as we test our mettle and spice up the night.

Watch the video for initial cast announcement. More folks to come, but I’m really excited by who’s agreeing to do their art while their mouths are on fire.

#blade gunnblade #asia kate dillon #kapow-i gogo #eliza simpson of [angel & others in the mysteries] & [the mother line story project] & [saw ak dillon in triptych yes we're jealous]#& [princess cloudberry in kapow-i gogo]#here we also see stephen stout in the 1st pic but going ''!! surely our dear cherished blade gunnblade's back. hair's long though hmm''#only to have that cleared up by the 3rd pic thank god =']#i guess at some point blade gunnblade has blue hair & i do love that for them #i believe they're in part 3 but i have all the less information about that plausible appearance #(and of course still no info on [asia perhaps doubling roles with the longer black haired wig & ultracorp jacket in that one pic?])#one thing that would be fascinating & fun is if part 3 blade has more of part 1 kapow-i's look. the bright blue hair #looks like pink lipstick. Pure Speculation but i know the like [this is reaction to You Know How Media Is] element discussed like #part 1 thinking most [sat. morning cartoons experience; the legend of] part 2 is like when these series get sequels or just some #ep or turning point that upends its own previous established conventions. Darker more Serious / Mature Themes etc #part 3 like well sequel to That which adds yet another layer of the same factor there lol #i'm not really that versed in All This Media directly b/c i'm not that versed in / familiar with much of any media directly but #i am also not completely at sea & also one thing i could think of is like. blade is our revenge vengeance tragic anti antagonist lmao #what if after that they get to lighten up in delightful contrast to the torment & tragedy. turn more optimistic moral support bestie etc #but like i said utter speculation based on ''oh this is a look they have?'' & comments on [comments on material commenting on itself] so #could be anything! or nothing! except that it's Something enough to have been photographed a couple of times. thank god #oh hang on also we can see that that's stephen stout's character in the pic of Wearing A Black Longer Haired Wig & Ultracorp Jacket #who's to say it isn't also: yes that's blade disguised or something. underneath they have this bright blue shorter wig & Blade Outfit lol #i would cheer for that. compelling #(also noting that it didn't preclude a doubling of roles instead but; that figure Is wearing blade's necklace. makes it easy to switch to #Blade Mode backstage; makes it easy to switch to Blade Mode onstage....)#which: noted! bullet necklace! makes sense lmao. sort of #also pic 2 ft. director kristin mccarthy parker fyi. and the typical blade hair length i.e. simply asia's own.#''😳........ 😍'' soooooo true ''MMM:'' standing for ''most memorable moment:'' and also sooooo true as well #blade gunnblade is everything to me. if they died in part 3 i'm blowing this whole building up. they have bright blue hair now

honorarily: blade gunnblade's gunblade, akd glimpse in rehearsal ft. the other blade (sword), & no context blade (name) note

#presumably it's not a common noun blaaaaade!!!#blade gunnblade #asia kate dillon #kapow-i gogo #even more blade gunnblade tragedy: that they're probably just out of frame in that first rehearsal triptych there #presuming further that a) blade's wielding their gunblade & b) it's the fight glimpsed in the trailer #(actor's last name is axelrod which is so effed. you gotta change it sorry :/ )#pic 2 has the context provided of being from part 3 which i remember being like ''didn't like that''#b/w a) sources being like yeah characters die all over b) a pic of blade tagged RIPgunblade (one N though)#then c) this pic of part 3 like hey that's theirs :( after part 2 ends with the epic fight with them :( ''didn't like that''#but d) i do think they're in part 3. believe at least 1 source specifically lists them as being a returning character there #& e) they can probably just borrow lend & trade weapons then; alively....

our beloved blade gunnblade upstage at any time

#but not every time. afaik also at any given time idk they could be being generally intense but that takes on many forms #and maybe also funny? don't know any specifics there but. ''in times like these i guess all you can do is laugh / :l''#deciding like hey may as well strike while the iron's hot like. weeks later.....#like oh the pen size setting will be less than one percent of the canvas width & the lines will be unnecessarily honed...smh #could've taken even longer on those counts though. anyways of course it's time for a waist up portrait of everyone's fave #there's also pics where their hair is varying lengths but it's never this long. that's just a matter of convenience #well it's 8am it's bed time bitch #kinda like the like umm. topographical map style effect this gif format has on the gradient shading/highlights in this lol #hang in there blade gunnblade....however it's Very funny that they don't hang in there & wanna kill litchrelly everyone haha yes go babe go #ok that's simply enough tag commentary For Now when it's naptime #blade gunnblade #honorarily:#asia kate dillon #corned beef #kapow-i gogo
