The return of Roger Mathey's The Back Pocket and other crazy theatre posts - By N.L. Belardes

Roger Mathey is one of those theatre guys who is a little pretentious; yeah he has a bit of an ego, but so what? He's funny as hell. He loves the Green Lantern, and he has a heart as big as the world. He's a director, a producer, a creative director, a motivator, an actor, a film buff, a creative Wile E. Coyote Super Genius, and most people love him, myself included.

Just don't tell him what to do when he's doing his biznatch.

Read his tip of the week about morons in theatre trying to step on the big wig producer. Yeah, he kicks them to the curb!

Oh, and then there are those whimpy actors who won't treat theatre like a shrine. Roger eats those punch drunk whiners for lunch. Yes, he kicks them suckers to the curb too...

Roger also has rekindled a favorite bit of ambiguous writing called The Back Pocket. He's got four written now and you're going to want to read each one carefully because they're all about local Bakersfield theatre gossip.

Read between the lines and you'll learn who is boinking who, who the local theatre whores are, and who needs an ego enema. I just wish Roger would cough up the real names of all folks involved in the REAL drama of local theatre. Damn him.

Oh yeah, Roger loves film and needs your submissions for BIFF. Get in touch with him before he unleashes on you like the damn Green Lantern...
