Who I'd like to meet: Paul Storiale (Creator/Director) has toured throughout the country performing on stage, and spent three years in Chicago’s perennial hit comedy “Tony n’ Tina’s Wedding” before having the privledge of playing with New York’s original cast reunion. (at the Pechanga Resort and Casino in California.)
In 2006, Storiale’s production of Woman with Pocketbook won an ADA award for best production and received a nomination for best director of a musical.
In 2007, Storiale went on to direct and play the lead role in “Lend Me a Tenor” followed by the creation of “One Night Stands, the sex comedies”.
That August, Storiale flew to New York City to obtain the rights of a brand new musical barely in its adolecence called “Twist” a re-telling of the tale of Oliver Twist., which was nominated for a drama desk award for Best Music (partly written by Paul Leschen of the scissor sisters)
In December 2007, that musical was mounted at the Avery Schrieber Theatre, starring up and coming Alexandra Billings (Grey’s Anatomy).
Most recently, Mr. Storiale has had the honor of critiquing Los Angeles Theatre for stagehappenings.com, a well respected blog site featuring news and reviews; thus having a fantastic time learning of other companies and understanding what he is up against in the battle for brilliance.
One Night Stands, began as a brainstorm for idea’s having had rights to his dream show cancelled due to another mounting close-by.. In One Night Stands original run of six weeks, celebrity comedian Ant partook in the show as a celebrity guest. READ THE REVIEWS: "the young and very attractive performers do titillate and amuse the audience with their uninhibited energy." StagesceneLA.com
"Great great great show! The actors were talented (finally, after seeing a couple weird shows from GoldStar). And my girlfriends and I laughed our asses offf... also parking was easy and the theatre was easily accessible, unlike some other venues. Overall, this was a fantastic experience... I highly recommend everyone to see it!" ~ GoldStar.com
"The Highlight of the Evenings is Brandelynn Turner, as a blowsy, stumbling drunk and hilariously profane Cupid." ~Tolucan Times
"Writer/director Striale keeps the pacing swift, and the cast, who fill up the front row of the theater, get to enjoy the other skits along with the audience and provide a built-in laugh track/cheering section." ~StageSceneLA.com
"This performance was so funny! I laughed the whole time I was there." ~Goldstar
