Katherine Mylenki's Naked Ambitions

The cast for "Naked Came the Painting," a one act comedy by LindaAnn Loschiavo, had its first rehearsal on Monday, 18 October 2010 in Manhattan's theatre district.
• • In the cast are: Lila Smith, Katherine Mylenki, and David A. Green.
• • Shela Xoregos directs.
• • Here's an excerpt from an exclusive interview with the actress Katherine Mylenki, who will portray the character AMELIA, a sexually provocative widow whose earthiness intimidates her frumpy daughter MEREDITH.

• • • •  QUESTION:  What made you decide to become an actress, Katherine?
• • • • KATHERINE MYLENKI said:  I can tell that to the moment. I saw "Gone with the Wind" for the first time at about age 12 and Scarlett, in that gorgeous dress, is rebuffed by Ashley when she tells him she loves him, then picks up a figurine and smashes it against the fireplace. I thought, Wow, she did that and nobody got mad at her and she didn’t have to clean it up! That’s for me.
• • This spirited three-character comedy — — that explores the boundaries between art and artifice — — will make its debut at the 2010 Harvest One-Act Play Festival.  Variations Theatre Group will offer performances between November 10th — 20th, 2010 at the recently renovated LABA Theatre at the 14th Street Y.

Lights, Camera, Tarot!

The cast for Naked Came the Painting, a one act comedy by LindaAnn Loschiavo, will begin rehearsals in Manhattan's theatre district on Monday, 18 October 2010.

• • One of the conflicts has to do with a young woman's obsession with Tarot cards when her mother feels MEREDITH ought to be studying for her exams instead.  Exasperated, AMELIA shouts:  "I can predict the future.  Students who fail to study — — FAIL!"

• • • • Lights, Camera, Tarot! • • • •
• • The Tarot deck, by itself, has no power, of course.  The power must come from the person who is reading them.

• • If you are a novice reader, the best deck is the Rider-Waite Tarot card deck. Developed by A.E. Waite, the Rider-Waite Tarot card deck was illustrated by Pamela Colman Smith. This user friendly deck may look simple but the imagery of the major arcana is complex, filled with esoteric symbolism and hidden meanings. The symbols provide additional insight into each card's messages.

• • The reader lays the cards out in a pattern,  with each position corresponding to an aspect of the question. As the reader shuffles the deck, he/ she would focus not only on the question, but also on the spread and the order in which the cards will be placed.

• • When each Tarot card is cast, its position and its values represent the subconscious forces operating around the querent and the situation.  Here is where the true art of divination happens. A skillful, intuitive reader will interpret the symbols on each card in its specific position to describe these forces in light of what the reader knows about the question.  Making a Tarot card reading meaningful and helpful will require no fancy psychedelic deck but rather an intuitive, skilled reader who knows the strengths and limitations of the Tarot.

• • We predict this play will be a success so get your ticket as soon as possible.

• • This spirited three-character comedy — — that explores the boundaries between art and artifice — — will make its debut at the 2010 Harvest One-Act Play Festival.  Variations Theatre Group will offer performances between November 10th — 20th, 2010 at the recently renovated LABA Theatre at the 14th Street Y, 344 East 14th Street, New York, NY 10003.
• • In the cast are: Lila Smith, Katherine Mylenki, and David A. Green.
• • Shela Xoregos will direct.
• • Specific performance dates and times will soon be finalized by Variations Theatre Group and announced.
• • Subway: Union Square Station/ IRT Lexington, 4, 5, 6; First Avenue Station / L line
