Dearlings,
The day we know we've ALL been waiting for has finally arrived: The day of the night of the only ♏️ Scorpio full moon 🌕 🦂 of the year. (Note to selves: The Day of The Night of The Only Scorpio Full Moon Of The Year is a really good name for a movie!) (Note to readers: We're working on a script for a new movie. It's called The Day of The Night of The Only Scorpio Full Moon Of The Year. It's of the AstroCamp Psychotragi-com genre, a genre where astrology, cosmic timing, surrealism, dark comedy, and emotional unraveling collide in a single chaotic and enchanting event of pure surrender and Phoenix-style rebirth. It's about two Scorpios 🦂🦂 who are best friends and creative partners and business partners who have a theater called Dynasty Typewriter which hosts all sorts of great shows and events with the most talented people in the world and they send out a weekly email newsletter with all the show listings, and use the real estate above the show listings to talk about big astrological events, especially ones that directly affect their sign, but everyone reading it LOVES IT because even though most have other signs, they are smart and intuitive and can recognize the humanity in it, and ultimately that is the bond that ties them all together. Meanwhile, there is a rival theater called Small Nuclear Family Notepad that is trying to fuck with them because Small Nuclear Family Notepad represents evil in the universe, obviously. And in attempted act of arrogant sabotage, they challenge Dynasty to the first ever DESERT IDITAROD. 🌵🐺🛷 Dynasty is overwhelmed because... um, we're not the sportiest bunch! But 🚨SPOILER ALERT🚨: It's a close race, but with the help of the positive thinking of their audience, lots of ethically sourced hallucinogenic plant medicines 🍄💐, and some silly magical talking and humanely treated desert wolves, Dynasty wins! And Small Nuclear Family Notepad are so mad and sad they end up like puking everywhere. Including on each other!! 😂 Also we're working on a really funny scene where someone gets caught making love with a radish. TBD whether the radish is sentient or not, but they are making love WITH not TO them regardless, because no matter if a protagonist or antagonist is getting with the radish, they’re doing it consensually. Together. And That’s The Dynasty Difference!™ Which obviously shouldn’t be a “difference” that should be a universal truth. But our CONSISTENCY and demanding that even inanimate objects give spiritual consent is… different. For now. In the future that will be the NORM. Right now we're leaning non-sentient radish. If you have any thoughts on the sentience of the radish, any ideas for names for the radish, or feel there's a root vegetable that would be funnier or more poignant for someone to be making love to, please let us know!)
Anyhoo, yeah, we're making a movie! We’ll be working on the script at EVERY coffee shop ☕️, as part of the International Movie May-de challenge which is kind of like that month where everyone writes a novel? (Is it Novelmber? If not we just flarpin' invented it. 🆒!) Except this is a month where everyone writes a screenplay AND utilizes as many coffee shop offices as possible. And everyone talks on their phones in the coffee shop as they are breaking their third acts at MAXIMUM VOLUME. 🔈 If you see us, say hello! We'll be bouncing around in the mornings but will usually be at our favorite spot Brewhemium Rhapsody in the afternoons. Their Dirty Cherry Chai Lattes are iNsAnE. 😋😵💫
And also yeah, today is a big astrological event in a year filled with them, and we urge you to manifest for your greatest good because you deserve it! And honestly the universe needs you to be the most expressed, magical version of yourself. Truly!
In other news, we've been blown away by the number of applications and resumes we've received for our open Director of Operations position here at Dynasty! We're still fielding submissions, if you feel like you or someone you know could be a perfect fit for a leadership role at a venue/production company that connects with its audience through emails like this!
List of upcoming amazing in-person shows and livestreams are below! We love you very much!
