KATHY KINGSTON is a transplanted New Yorker who has variously worked as a bankteller, fashion model, grocery store cashier and, for the past twenty-seven years, as an award-winning landscape contractor. Relatively late in life, she decided to get serious about writing and joined Sisters-in-Crime. Having her story “This I Know” accepted for their MURDER IN LA-LA LAND anthology made her dream of becoming a published writer come true. She is also working on a novel-in-progress, but the short story remains her favorite literary form. Kathy lives in Venice, CA with a huge stack of books, a very tall husband (a veritable mountain of a man), a son who is a music producer, a fashion model daughter, one very silly cat, and two dogs. “This I Know,” the story she will be reading Wednesday night takes place in the California high desert during a Halloween party. The hostess discovers there are monsters on the prowl, some imagined, some very, very real.
DONNA MAY, after years of exile in Boston (her mother, raised in Brentwood had followed her husband there) returned to native soil. Working on the East Coast as an English teacher and a theatrical costume designer, it one day came to her that she was shoveling way too much snow. So, she got smart and returned to Los Angeles. For the past fifteen years, she has worked in the entertainment industry on production crews for popular television shows like “E.R.” and “Heroes.” Wednesday she will be reading her first published work, “The Acquisition,” from the anthology, MURDER IN LA-LA LAND. “The Acquisition” is set in the world of fine art, and is the story of Hilda Prudhomme, a restorer of artifacts and sculpture from all over the world. One recently acquired Getty acquisition holds a particular fascination for her; staring at it, she is drawn into a world of dark secrets…
GABRIELA VAZQUEZ is a graduate of Pomona College and holds a Certificate in Feature Film Writing from the UCLA Writer’s program. Her screenplay, “Wrestling with Angels,” won third place in the Diane Thomas Screenwriting Awards competition. In her short story, “Average Monster,” which she will be reading tonight, Private Investigator Tom Wells searches for a serial killer who is so ordinary, so average, that no one seems able to describe him.
WANTED: WRITERS! is a forum dedicated to authors reading from both published works and original works-in-progress. Authors interested in giving voice to their writing– short stories, novels, essays, plays or poetry–should sign-up on our registration sheet or contact: Joe Staats * 310-889-6172

COMEDY NIGHT !, THIRD TIME AROUND brings together a new group of five talented stand-up comedians with actress/comedienne/writer—and host—Sardia Marley. This new group of comics is every bit as disturbed as the last bunch and the public should take notice that they are funny (don’t come if you don’t like to laugh!). Individuals should only expose themselves to this group if they have been inoculated with a sense of humor because they are, to a man or woman, astonishingly amusing, deliriously deranged, and entirely without restraint. Uncaged. Demented. Get the idea?! Having thus fairly warned you, it should be noted that this group includes celebrity comedians in the persons of Stogie Kenyatta andHank Garrett, both of whom tour widely on the professional and college comedy circuits—and are wanted in many states. There may be a reward available, and you will certainly be rewarded in coming to this show! Comedy cohorts of this nefarious pair, also appearing Thursday, July 22, 2010 at the Rumor Mill, include Rebecca O’Brian, Aldo Guiliano, and Shari Vasseghi, also known to be armed with barbs, zingers, trenchant observations, and the ability to puncture the pompous. All are dangerously funny.
Stogie Kenyatta has an extensive acting resume with more than twenty-five TV
and film credits including guest starring appearances on JAG, FBI, E.R. MaddTV, Jake & The Fatman, The Bold and the Beautiful,Batman & Robin, and Species, to name a few. He is the writer and performer of the acclaimed one-man show “The World is my Home - The Life & Times of Paul Robeson,” and has performed over 100 shows on the college circuit.
Hank Garrett,among many other career accomplishments, was Patrolman Ed Nicholson on sixty episodes of Car 54, Where Are You?and he won the New York Film Critics’ Award for his role as the infamous killer postman in the feature film “Three Days of the Condor.”
Shari Vasseghi (a.ka. “Corky”—her criminal alias) describes herself as “very
spiritual” and as an “uplifter” who likes to make people laugh. She would like to meet someone “who’s very confident, independent, happy on his own” and “who’s not afraid to love.” Keep an eye on her: it’s always the quiet ones you’ve got to watch.
Aldo Guiliano, is the kind of beachcomber who finds women instead of shells along the seashore. He has appeared on The Tonight Show, Jay Leno, and The David Letterman Show; is a veteran of the Witness Protectioncomedy shows, and has appeared with the legendary Garrett Morris in a benefit for Habitat for Humanity. He shares an interest in weightlifting with Hank Garrett, and as he was a star wrestler back in the day, has offered to wrestle Hank at this show.
Rebecca O’Brien has been on ER, Kath & Kim, Jimmy Kimmel Live, NYPD Blue, Big Love, and you can look for her in an upcoming episode of ABC Family’s HUGE! She runs her own Comedy Show every Friday night at Rebecca O’Brien’s Stage at Elderberries on Sunset and Curson.
Musicians, actors or other performers interested in participating in future Open Mic/Performance Night events–with comedy routines, dramatic readings, music, one-act plays or performance pieces–are all welcome. Please contact event programmer Joe Staats at 310-889-6172,or use the sign-up sheet found on the Rumor Mill counter.
