"The One" Festival Brings Back "Elvis"!
Well, we've got some good news. Thanks to our good friend (and last year's winner) R. Ernie Silva, La Tea Theatre's sixth annual "THE ONE" Festival will feature three revival performances of Elvis Has Left the Building. You can come see "The King" on Monday, April 11th at 8pm; Tuesday, April 12th at 8pm; Thursday, April 14th at 8pm; and Sunday, April 24th at 4pm.
The festival showcases original, non-published theatrical works, both full-length and shorts. At the conclusion of the festival, the audience favorite will be awarded the grand prize of a $500 cash prize plus a full theatrical production at Teatro LATEA later this year. To win the grand prize, a work must receive a minimum of 75 votes from participating audience members during the course of the festival. So, in other words, we sure would like it if some folks showed up.
If you need a reminder of what the show is all about: During the final years of his life, Elvis Presley's Las Vegas performances grew more and more surreal, thanks to a combination of personal demons, pharmaceutical medications, and other outside influences. During these shows, Elvis began to devote large chunks of his stage time to rambling monologues about his career, his loves, and the rumors circulating about his lifestyle. These monologues present a candid, fascinating, and often hilarious portrait of the man behind the legend. Elvis Has Left The Building is taken entirely from transcripts and bootleg recordings of "the Vegas monologues" (there’s not one word in it that Elvis didn’t say), combined with seven songs to create a true Elvis concert experience—with a darkly funny twist.
Performances are at Teatro LATEA, located at the Clemente Soto Velez Cultural & Educational Center, 107 Suffolk Street, 2nd floor (between Delancey and Rivington Streets). Tickets are $15 in advance (order them here), $20 at the door.
And to give you a taste of what you're in for, here's a clip from last August's performances at the Duplex Cabaret Theatre:
