ORGASMICO THEATRE CO. SPONSORS "THE O FACE AWARD" FOR 2013

EXORCISTIC: the Rock Musical Parody Experiment

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

The Orgasmico Theatre Company is sponsoring THE O FACE AWARDS for Orgasmic Achievement at this year’s Hollywood Fringe Festival!

In case you are wondering how exactly the word “orgasmic” applies, here’s a quote,

“Great spiritual teachers throughout the ages have stated that orgasm is the closest some people come to a spiritual experience because of the momentary loss of self. Why is this true? Because with spiritual sex, you move beyond orgasm into a connection with yourself, your partner, and the divine — recognizing them all as one.”
-Alexandra Katehakis – Clinical Director of the Center for Healthy Sex in Los Angeles

Our Goal: We at Orgasmico Theatre Company LLC would like to single out one production, one performer, and one playwright (or composer) to receive THE O FACE AWARD for forging a connection between artist, audience and the divine, bringing all three together in an explosive* theatrical experience that transcends convention and can only be regarded as “Orgasmic.”

Details about each category:

The “ORGASMIC PRODUCTION” winner could be from any fringe category (comedy, drama, solo, musical, physical theatre etc…) Direction, design and ensemble achievement are all contributing factors of a great show, but ultimately we seek the production that is more than the sum of its parts, and hurls the audience over the edge.

The “ORGASMIC PERFORMER” is a mad priest/priestess who seduces the audience, unites them intimately with the character they are playing, and ultimately brings the whole theatrical ritual to an unforgettable climax.

The “ORGASMIC WRITER” is bestowed on the individual who literally gets you off with his/her pen. They use language and/or music to sing the human experience in all its absurdity and twisted poetry: the fables, and foibles that aim at the audience’s mind, heart and loins all at once, taking us to a place that lies beyond words – a place where only one letter exists: the letter "O.’

The winners will be announced at the Hollywood Fringe Closing Night Award Show where they will receive THE O FACE statuette for their respective categories.

“In my next life I want to live backwards. Start out dead and finish off as an orgasm.”
-Woody Allen
