RMSTN wins 2010 Capital Fringe Director's Award



The 2010 Director's Award was dedicated to the memory of Darin Ellis, a young performer who passed away during the run of his show Assembly Required.

good publicity is good publicity.

We were fortunate to get some really nice shout outs for our DC run. First there was the Washington Post that named us an editor's pick. Then Jessie Newman gave us an amazing shout out on her blog C.A.P.S.love. DC Theatre Scene gave a well-deserved nod to Jo Firestone's performance in one critic's thoughts on the fringe.

And then there was the City Paper's Chris Klimek who interviewed us for Fringe & Purge.

Thanks to all who cared to write about us!
