Some of you haven’t been doing your part to assure that we all consume enough energy to black out the eastern seaboard and necessitate the takeover of a few more Arab nations. Shame on you.

But there’s still a chance. Hop into your SUV’s (please, one per person), motor into Manhattan with the windows open and the air conditioner blasting, and come to where the bright lights are illuminating yours truly on stage. [This’ll be my last week of regular performances for about a month, so you’ll have to find a way to burn the gigawatts without me in September.]

After some good reviews and consistently sold-out shows, The Next Big Broadway Musical will be closing its doors after this Friday’s performance. We’re a little fatigued, and one of our cast members gave birth to her first child last week. But we’ll be back someday, oh yes, we’ll be back.

And then there’s my Viking epic, written for and performed with 10 year-old Jonathan Rosario. It’s part of the 52nd Street Project’s 1-on-1 series, and it’ll be running from Thursday through Sunday. Come see some of Broadway and Off-Broadway’s finest performing with Hell’s Kitchen’s finest (details on the website, click on “Newsstand”). My play features the barbaric reggae smash “We Vikin’.”

So come on down for this late-summer Felbfest, and please feel free, as always, to say hello afterwards. And remember to leave all your lights on while you’re out. Otherwise, the terrorists will truly… um… have a hard time seeing if they, uh, drop by.
