Lock up your daughters, your sons, and your founding fathers. KML is back--and this time we're bringing you a show all about history: KML Springs Forward Falls Back opens this week. That's right, beginning Thursday and running through July 27, we'll be tripping through time and bringing you epic-ly epoch-spanning sketches at San Francisco's Dance Mission Theater. Imagine cavemen, pilgrims, flappers, inventors, hep cats, '70's detectives, video game characters, ne'er-do-wells and might-have-beens all sharing the same stage. The greats and not-so-greats we all learned about in our history books and struggle to recall with the help of Wikipedia.The madness is directed by KML vet Andy Alabran, and features music by Olive Mitra and Mike Smith, choreography by Jen Chien (of the Erika Chong Schuch Performance Project) and performances by KML vets Sarah Mitchell, Todd Brotze, and Leslie Waggoner, and KML newcomers Sally Clawson, Joseph O'Malley, and Patrick Russell. [Get to know the gang a bit better by reading the cast Q+A.] Don't wait! Get Your Tickets Now and make history with us. See you at the theater. *Please note: if you choose to pay for your tickets at the door, theater policy allows for walk-ups to be sold only with cash or check. No credit cards will be taken at the theater box office--so if you want to use plastic, please purchase in advance. |

 KML Springs Forward, Falls Back takes YOU back. Way way back... to when drinks were so cheap, they were free. Well, free as long as you dress like you're from way back, too. That's the rule of our awesome theme nights. Come
to the show in the costume appropriate to each Friday night's theme and
score a free adult beverage at intermission. [And they say you can't get anything in this life for free anymore.]

 Want to see the new show for free? Come be a volunteer. All you need to do is show up to the theater early (and help us prep while our cast and musicians warm up), then pitch in as an usher or perhaps some other position we may need depending on the night you come, and you're gold, pony boy. You'll get first dibs on where you sit and other treats along the way. We could use the help, and why not see the show from the inside?
If you're interested please send us an email now. Thanks for considering and hope to see ya at the show.

 It takes a lot of elbow grease to put on a KML show. (A lot of sandwiches, too, but mostly elbow grease.) It also takes a lot of dry goods, wet goods, and burlap. Oh, the amount of burlap we go through--you wouldn't believe.
No, for real, whether or not you know it, KML would love to take some items off your hands, should you have an old PC laying around, or some printer paper, or even a case of bottled water. As a non-profit, we accept your donations and even can throw a tax deductable receipt your way--as proof of your donation come tax season next year. Check out the stuff we need section and consider turning to your closet or workspace to make a donation. You'll feel good. We'll feel great. And we'll hug it out, homey. |

 When I was a kid, I used to take pictures of the TV with my Polaroid camera. They always turned out blurry, which invariably pissed me off. Don't ask why I was taking pictures of the TV. Just know someone has perfected the practice... with hilarious results.
His name is Mike Sacks, and his pictures of TV is one of the funniest and most oddly moving online galleries we've ever seen.
