Recent Press about Isaac Rathbone's New Play, "Little Eva"

Play Reexplores Eva Coo Crime 75 Years Later
Wednesday, January 14, 2009

Production Planned In Milford
On Hooker With Heart Of Flint

By JIM KEVLIN

Eva Coo lives, and not only in the picture of her victim, Harry Wright, on the label of Cooperstown Brewing Co.’s Back Yard India Pale Ale. (He’s the one with an X above his head.) “I fell one of her victims,” Niles Eggleston, 92, author of “Eva Coo, Murderess,” said the other day in explaining his fascination. “But at least I’m still alive.”

If so, then Eva Coo’s latest “victim” is Isaac Rathbone, a New York City playwright raised in Milford (Harry Wright’s hometown), who will be staging a play at the Upper Susquehanna Cultural Center this June 2009.

It will mark the 75th anniversary of a crime that, thanks to New York City’s then-flourishing tabloid press, electrified Otsego County, the state and nation.
After a three-ring trial in Cooperstown, Eva Coo, on June 27, 1935, at Sing Sing, became the last woman executed by electric chair in New York State. A WGY announcer broke in and the news was signaled around the world via a relatively new medium, radio.

“Eva’s a wonderful character. She’s deviant. She’s funny. She’s great to watch,” said Rathbone the other day from his Brooklyn apartment.

“The bulk of story takes place during the Great Depression,” he said. “The play explores the desperation and survival that people went through during that time. Eva was so desperate and willing to commit a heinous crime for economic survival.
“It rings true a little bit today, to see how low people can go.”

OTI's World Oracles, Legends, and Folklore performs at North Merrick May 7th 1:30pm

AUDITIONS FRI. APRIL 4, 2008 6-7p by appointment

noreply@blogger.com (Oracle Theatre, Inc.) — Sun, 16 Mar 2008 13:34:00 PDT

OK, so we are holding non-union auditions for our World, Oracles, Legends, & Folklore (WOLF) Family Series for both male and female actors.

Requirements:

Male or Female age 20 - 40, but more importantly, willing to work in a family environment and as part of a team
MUST like mask work, puppetry work, and kids
This casting is for an ongoing series that we'd like to find actors/actresses interested in developing or further developing a relationship with our non-profit theatre company. www.oracletheatreinc.com

This is a moderate touring opp. Meaning, we go to Long Island, Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan to perform for museums, libraries, gardens, public spaces, and schools that we think would benefit from this type of theatrical experience.

Please send us your headshot and resume in an email titled WOLF AUDITIONS to: oracletheatreinc@oracletheatreinc.com

Reading of Isaac Rathbone's "There's Always A Band"

noreply@blogger.com (Oracle Theatre, Inc.) — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 17:27:00 PST

We just held the first read thru of Isaac Rathbone's full length version of There's Always A Band. In its' original one-act form, the sentimental and lightly existential, serio-comedic drama about two soldiers standing post in an abandoned field, has been performed at OTI's Truth Be Told Series, Manhattan Rep's Fall Series 2006, and the Sam French Festival 2007. Now it has evolved to encompass a second act.

Thank you to everyone who read and to those who came to give feedback. This type of literary constructive criticism is very productive to the creative process!
