Do yourself a favor, don't
This is what the theater has done, what the producer and tech director are still actively running from, and what I was expected to keep quiet and secret from the cast, crew, and public by the rest of the production team.

Watching the Firebird Theatre pretend that everything is fine and business as usual as they're crumbling from the inside and there is public, documented ableism that they'll only publicly address in reaction and once their show run is over is actually physically revolting

I am so sorry to everyone. I thought I was helping promote accessibility in theater. I thought I was doing good.

After the ableism I saw from those in charge, I wish all I genuinely believed before about this theater was true. It's not. And I'm sorry for misleading you all.

Apologies to all those looking forward to the showing tonight, there were emergency issues regarding our crew and we had to cancel our show this evening.

We are still planning on our show tomorrow at the regular time, and we hope to see you all then!

I've been informed that people have already started lining up at the theatre for tonight's show.

Guys it's just shy of 6 hours from now, I love the enthusiasm, but holy hell...

Another weekend means more shows! We're so excited to share FOUR more performances with our live audiences and streamers!

People who com to our shows like to dress up mice, like they're going to live theater irl. This was my first theater glam from last year. Lemme see yours!

The Firebird Theatre promotes accessibility in stagecraft. But it's more than disability, like my case, it's location as well.

For those who cannot get to NA data servers or wouldn't be awake during our performances, we have streams on youtube and twitch!

So... one thing you learn about our troupe defines "dress rehearsal" a bit... uniquely

Fun Fact: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, author of Sherlock Holmes, was a staunch second-wave spiritualist. He was devout to the point where he destroyed his friendship with illusionist Harry Houdini and is a speculative culprit in the Piltdown Man hoax. He might be upset to know he's remembered for Holmes

To say that our cast, crew, and alum are celebrating the new privacy features is an understatement!

We have been fortunate to not have this issue yet, but in the future, we look forward to being prepared for any malicious interruption to the show being dealt with quickly and quietly!
April 13, 2024 at 8:34 PM
seriously this keeps happening
April 7, 2024 at 12:04 AM
My favorite fun fact so far:

When you see live theater and experience a show, your heartbeat and breathing sync with the rest of the audience

No word on virtual theater yet, but I think lag plays a role

Saving a production fun fact for tomorrow because I don't want it to be seen as a joke

This easter, remember that the Hatchingtide event is based ENTIRELY on fever dreams involving archons and flying eggs, and more recently other things like goobues and tonberries.
March 31, 2024 at 7:52 PM
Sooooooo I don't have the exact dates for Sherlock Holmes yet, but I know with absolute certainty this much:

All performances will take place before the early release of Dawntrail.

Like theatre? Looking for something to do before all the new content? Stay tuned, we should drop our dates soon!
