SHAKESPARODY (2001, 2002, 2004)

DESCRIPTION
ShakesParody Festivals feature theatrical performances of Shakespeare, modified Shakespeare, Shakespeare-inspired skits, Shakespeare-like readings, most with a comic bend. Performances are repeated during the day at indoor and outdoor stages. Local musicians (e.g. Barley Thar, Eclectic Acoustic) perform on stage and as wandering minstrels. Local performance groups add to the flavor by setting up camps where they stage demonstrations, such as broad sword fighting (Society for Creative Anachronism), period dance (Troupe Arabesque), and fencing (FSU Fencing Club). Games, arts and crafts activities for the children are provided by Railroad Square artisans and community volunteers, e.g. the Ophelia Dunking Booth and Sponge Jousting.

The Mickee Faust company performs parodies of Shakespeare plays, e.g. MacBeef, a Fast Food Tragedie; scenes from Shakespeare plays with a twist, e.g. “Shakespeare on the Rocks” featuring the balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet performed on the walls of the Rock Gym; or the adaptation of modern works with a Shakespearean twist, such as “Othello in the Family,” featuring Archie Bunker et al., and Green Eggs and Hamlet. Local performance groups also take the stage with such fan favorites as Monty Python’s The Spanish Inquisition (SAIL students), or Brush up Your Shakespeare (Wakulla Little Theater).

FAUSTIAN FIRST FRIDAYS (on-going)

On the First Friday of the month, it has become a tradition that all of the art emporiums in the city of Tallahassee stay open late and offer free admission. The main beneficiary of this monthly event has been the many art studios and galleries in the area of town affectionately called, “ Railroad Square”. With over twenty art studios in a single area, people are free to park their cars and simply walk around the square visiting galleries large and small. As part of the city’s First Friday experience, the Mickee Faust company offers interactive experiences…with a typically Faustian bent. Each First Friday of the month finds the doors to our Clubhouse open with something unusual happening: Faustian Art Shows, Video Premieres, Musical Jam Sessions, Evenings of Bad Jokes.

MICKEE FAUST’S RUN FOR GOVERNOR (2002)

DESCRIPTION AND EVENTS
In the 2002 Florida State election year, Faustkateers blurred the lines between reality and fantasy by staging a performative protest designed to call attention to the disreputable state of politics when Mickee Faust (aka Terry Galloway) filed to become a legitimate rat-in candidate for Florida Governor by presenting his/her identification (a Leon County Library Card) at the State Elections Office on the last official filing day.Pulled in a little red wagon by rat minion Squeeky Fromage (aka Diana Kampert) and Camp Pain manager Chi Chi Atwater Matelin Carville (aka Nancy Lang), Mickee toured the state in an hour and twenty minutes before stopping for an extended lunch. His running mate was Voodoo Queen Sister Mo (aka Andrea Jones). His Camp Pain treasurer was Peggy "Piggy" Banks (aka Isabelle Potts). His PR people were stylish news reporter Jack Hammer (aka Frank Lynch), mouthpiece Loose Lipsinkaship (aka Susan Gage) and photographer Frenchie Shutterbug (aka Beatrice Queral). Camp Pain slogans were "Lower the Bar" and "Vote Vermin." "Vote Vermin" bumper stickers still appear on several vehicles to this day thanks to their super-glue backing. A series of four Faust V89 radio programs (January 30, 2002; May 29, 2002; July 31, 2002; October 30, 2002) chronicled the events of the campaign, with original skits and songs, culminating in Mickee Faust’s glorious garnering of 23 statewide votes on November 5, 2002.

IN THE HOUSE OF THE MOLES (2004)

DESCRIPTION
Terry Galloway’s In the House of the Moles is an absurdist, realistic, vaudevillian, queer take off of Hamlet. The play focuses on a family of four sisters and their late mother’s live-in male friend. To honor their mother’s memory, the sisters agree to perform their mom’s life work, her play, one last time. Within this drama comes another morality play creating a play-within-the-play-within-the-play, and a show that both entertains and provokes.

In developing the script of the play, the playwright, Terry Galloway, initially workshopped it at the American Place Theater in New York City, the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles, and The Rude Mechs in Austin, Texas. 2004 Tallahassee Production was directed by Terry Galloway and Donna Marie Nudd. Ensemble performers: Susan Gage, Jeanette Peterson, Mickey Dutey, Alan Kagan, Eden Rush, and Sharon Moskowitz.
