Preparing for Philly: The Philly Fringe Blog Interviews Lizz Leiser...
EXQUISITE CORPSES, SERIOUS THEATRE
-Nick Gilewicz
“Destroying props—we call it making an offering to Dionysus. Anything you give me for a show, that shit is going to get destroyed as a sacrifice to the gods of theater,” says Lizz Leiser, director of the 2012 Philly Fringe show called The Apocalypse of John. What could be more appropriate, especially for plays that emerge from the planned chaos of New York’s Serious Theatre Collective?
For the raw material that became the Apocalypse of John, a group of seven playwrights were asked to generate high-stakes ideas, and all came up with stories of the apocalypse. Lizz turns to Jess Conda, who’s tending bar where we’re sitting upstairs at Fergie’s Pub, and asks, “Don’t you think that the apocalypse would happen in Philadelphia?” It’s a rhetorical question.
“Philadelphia is genuinely fucking weird,” Lizz says. So naturally, Philadelphia became the setting for this apocalyptic endeavor. John Derrian, the lead character, must save the earth from numerous archetypal apocalypses, ranging from Biblical forms to zombies to Satan himself. And the show, like all Serious Theatre Collective endeavors, is designed to attract a wide audience.
“We make theater for people who don’t consider theater an entertainment option. We take elements that you can only have live—bands, storytelling—and don’t publish clips of our shows online. The whole purpose of it is being live. We want to make a good product for audiences—we want to make good shit that people have fun seeing,” Lizz says.
Up now at the New York Fringe Festival, the play earned four stars from Time Out New York: “Directed with economy and savvy by Lizz Leiser and featuring a talented ensemble cast, the show is a riot of zippy one-liners and laugh-out-loud set pieces; it’s like watching a bunch of overgrown kids playing make-believe.”
These overgrown kids are open not just to integrating more popular images or forms into their writing, but also to welcoming the new kid. Anybody is invited to be a part of what is an open creative process; Lizz even volunteers an email address for readers interested in collaboration: tstcollective[at]gmail[dot]com. “If you can pick up a pencil, you can join us,” says Lizz.
The process works like this: At the weekly meetings, writers will generate raw material in response to prompts, or in exquisite-corpse-style experiments. Then, a second tier of “lead writers” will take on pulling that material together into a more cohesive form, and then ultimately, a head writer or writers will emerge for each show.
For newcomers, Lizz says, the collective gives training on their method when they first start writing. When they pass around material, they have certain rules. In exquisite corpse exercises, when a scene comes to a writer, that writer has to follow the voice that came before. “You can’t ask questions,” Lizz says, “and you don’t say ‘no’—you can’t write negatives.”
They meet in the Dublin House at 79th and Broadway, where, Lizz says, there’s a quiet back room. “It’s the official bar of our collective. We write and read the scenes to see what works. If they’re really terrible, I fold them I half, so I won’t have to bother. On Sundays, Ricardo [Delgado] and I, [who often work as lead writers], read what we have, highlight good lines, and we put it in the meat grinder to come up with a rough draft of a scene from all the best lines.”
Then, Lizz says, they have a straw man of what the play is, they do a reading, and see what needs to be fixed. Then, four head writers will cycle through revisions, until it goes back to Lizz and Ricardo once more. They have another reading, workshop it. Then, a big benefit of the collective emerges.
“At that point,” says Lizz, “nobody can tell who wrote any line. It’s great because you take the ego out of it. Nobody’s like, ‘this is my precious baby that I pushed out of my playwriting vagina.’”
The collective parents of this precious baby are Lizz, Ricardo Delgado, Becca Worthington, Terry Selucky, Ari Kessler (all of whom share writing credits), and Mike Drummey and Erin Salm (who both wrote and also act in the play). And to see some of the props from Norman and Ursula Stuby that are likely to be sacrificed, click here.
The Apocalypse of John runs September 14 through 16 at Fergie’s Pub. 1214 Sansom Street, Center City. Times vary, $15.

Sonic Branding: An Interview with Ari Kessler Creator of Apocalypse of John's Live Soundtrack
Ari Kessler: Composer, Lyricist, Pianist, Band Leader, and all around great guy sits down answer 5 questions about the Serious Theatre Collective's FringeNYC hit, "The Apocalypse of John ".
1. Ari, you're the lead Aural Specialist for the Serious Theatre Collective. How does that make you feel?
I've always prided myself on my aural abilities, though I do have reservations about this title.
2. Reviews have likened the music in the show to a sort of "live soundtrack". How does that description compare/contrast with what you were going for?
The music for A of J has always been more in line with the idea of a soundtrack than a traditional musical accompaniment. The live band is a part of the show's world, and so its job is to interact with the characters and act as a sort of guide to the audience as the plot zips through locations and scenarios.
3. Tell us about how you created the music for the show.
The main theme, "Kiss My Ass Goodbye", was written as a stand-alone song way back in the early stages of the script when we were still treating it as a traditional musical. Once we decided on the role for the band, though, the song became a motif for the Upstairs bar and for John in particular. That led me to write themes for the other main characters, and during rehearsals things settled into place organically.
4. What do you do when you're not playing music for the theatre?
When I'm not playing music for the theater, I'm usually doing something else music-related. Teaching private lessons, teaching classes, playing for classes, playing gigs, gigging for classes, classing for gigs -- you get the idea.
5. After all the excitement for The Apocalypse of John has died down, what will you do next?
After A of J finishes its Philly Fringe run, Lizz and I will go into seclusion to work on songs for a super-secret project, currently codenamed "octopus seahorse-saurus". I've said too much already.

Time Out NY Gives Apocalypse of John 4 out of 5 stars!
Time Out says
In The Apocalypse of John... Directed with economy and savvy by Lizz Leiser and featuring a talented ensemble cast, the show is a riot of zippy one-liners and laugh-out-loud set pieces; it’s like watching a bunch of overgrown kids playing make-believe. (One sublime moment of silliness features a shotgun-toting John blowing away a host of hostile forces—including the weather.) .... All told, this is a damned fun party.

The Apocalypse of John- Meet the Artists
The Serious Theatre Collective has formed a special contract with acclaimed Philadelphia Artists Ursula and Norman Stuby to create masks, puppets, and additional surprises for the Apocalypse of John.
These hand made art pieces have been loving crafted by Ursula and Norm to be ridden hard and put away wet by the cast for your entertainment!
Critics agree, the masks, puppets, and set items created by the Stubys are nothing short of awesome:
"...the show is a riot of zippy one-liners and laugh-out-loud set pieces..." —TimeOut NY
"...Excellent masks and puppets by Ursula and Norm Stuby are effectively used when the four horsemen of the apocalypse, aliens intent on Earth’s annihilation, and flesh-hungry zombies are introduced..." —Nytheatre.com
"...the titular burnout must weather no fewer than six global cataclysms—zombies, aliens, plague, nukes, storms, and the devil—all skillfully rendered by prop, puppet, and mask designers Ursula and Norm Stuby." —Backstage
Behind the Scenes Interview with Norm & Ursula!
Making awesome props and masks in five questions....
1. Hi Ursula and Norm. Thanks for doing the interview. Just to let our audience know a little bit about who you are, who are you? What do you do in Philly?
N: We both work in arts related jobs, but generally don't get to be creative at work. Ursula works for a public art exhibitions program installing the work of local artists and institutions. I work in a shop that does small scale commercial sculpture (toys, xmas ornaments, occasional internal organs of the body). We like to make things on the side that we can really sink our creative teeth into.
U: Norm said it. I love being challenged to solve art problems.
2. How did you guys get your start in art/theater/prop-making/things that look good?
N: I majored in sculpture in college, and went on to working in a few scenic and exhibit shops in the city before landing where I am now. It's really my need to make things combined with my love of all of the detail that makes movies (even really bad movies, which I love) interesting and fun to watch. Doing props for the theater is sort of a different animal because there are no close-ups in theatre and everything has to be big and bold.
U: I studied Art History, but have never stopped making things since kindergarten. I enjoy learning new mediums and techniques. The challenge to make props that looked good while being functional was great.
3. And you're husband and wife? What 's it like to collaborate creatively with the One you love?
N: It generally works out well because when one of us hits a wall, the other one is there to pick up a sledgehammer.
U: Working together on art is some of our happiest times. We like being a team.
4. Reviews have celebrated the props and design of the show. What inspired you in making these items? What was one of the most fun and/or challenging pieces?
N:They're all fun... we both love Halloween, mythology and sci-fi, so the subject matter is perfectly suited to our interests. The masks were took some trial and error with the papier mache, but turned out to be really good. The nuclear bombs were probably the most challenging, as shadow puppetry is tricky when the puppet, scrim, and light source all have to be hand-held by one person. We agree that they turned out much better the second time around with the color images of the mushroom clouds painted on the back of less translucent material.
U: I really enjoyed painting Blackstock's portrait. It had been a while since I did an acrylic painting and I had forgotten how relaxing that sort of painting is.
5. What's up next for you guys as artists?
N: Hopefully somebody will see this play who is working on a sci-fi B movie and decide that spending 60% of thier budget on props made by me will make their movie 85% better.
U: I want to make some masks for myself, do some more painting, design us a set of dishes, finish my quilt and the list goes on.
Below are exclusive behind the scenes photos of the making of just a few of masks and props featured in our show.
Don't forget to purchase your tickets here to see us lovingly destroy these works of art!
