Heywood Wakefield and TraniWreck: Saturday Oct. 4's Blurbs
About me: The Next TraniWreck is Saturday October 4, 2008 and it's going to be a huge blow out benefit show with every freakish awesome performer in Boston helping to raise money for a bunch of us to go to IDKE. It's going to be star studded and so gorgeous it's going to be painful.
TraniWreck: all gender, all genre cabaret/variety mess. Rawkus rabble rousing show of genderbending irrevernce.
"Some drag is about impersonation, impressions, and imitation. Our drag is about innovation, invention and irreverent gender(fuck) performance." -Heywood Wakefield.
Truth Serum and Heywood Wakefield started TraniWreck, the all gender, all genre cabaret show, in August 2004 and by February 2005 the show had spawned a second show called Wreckage: The Contest Show. At the final round of Wreckage 2005 we crowned Windsor Newton "Boston's Biggest Wreck" and awarded him $500 in cash and prizes.
Six preliminary rounds starting in April 2006 and ending in September 2006 yielded 11 contestants for Wreckage: The Final Round. And we crowned J. Roush and his friends "Boston's Biggest Wreck 2006" and awarded them $500 in cash and prizes. Check the photos to see how it went down!
"...Wreckage, likely the most surreal event Boston has to offer, remains a must see, where creativity and eccentricity rule the night." Bay Windows April 28, 2005
Truth Serum Productions will be producing TraniWreck and Wreckage: The Contest Show at new venues around town in the future. Please visit the website or join our mailing list to get the latest info. Accept no imitations! TraniWreck and Wreckage's brand of all gender, all genre performance cabaret can't be replicated by others elsewhere!
The 2006 cast included: Heywood Wakfeild, our host and MC and everyone's Dad. Ben our spot light boy who finally hit the stage, as Vizable Gayze. Miss Nicholle Pride the always changing character feminist performance art queen. Nomi Sparks bringing the weird. Yekaterina Petrovna Zamolodchikova (aka Katya) the Russian super-slut, oops, we mean super-star. Myles West/Kerewin West/Hothead Hutton three creations of fight choreographer and pint sized performance artist Alisia Waller. Miss Georgette who occasionally took the mics when we could pry the drink and pill bottles from her hands. And reigning queen of Scary with a captial S it's, Mr. Lady!
You can find out more about us at Truth Serum Productions. Especially, check out the photos section for all of our past shows.
Who I'd like to meet: you.
and your wad of single dollar bills.
and your wife/husband/sweetheart/roommate.
and their wallet too.
however, just because we're sluts doesn't mean we want to be friends with everyone! we have standards. if your profile is set to private and we can't see who you are, and if we can't send you a message, we won't friend you. we want to know who are fans are. we're cheap, but not that cheap.

OMG! It has been too long! I tell you this has been an incredibly challenging few months, but some of the things that are happening are also really incredible. Call me sometime! I'm back in SF this weekend, and I'll have some time out there.
I'm so homesick for Boston that I would ask you to bring me lots of goodies (like Ana's Taqueria), but I'm so happy just to have your handsome self back.
Hey...I feel the same way! Oh, if only we were magical and could wriggle our noses and appear in each other's towns! That would be amazing! In the meantime...Give a Wham!
This Lou is fer You... what say we go out sometime and play Snack Attracktor with the Chicks. I could show you some moves.. They don't call me "The Ladies Lou" for nuthin ya know. be good bro.
So, I wanted to tell your to have a Happy Birthday tomorrow because I thought it was you birthday but your myspace page says your a "SAG" so now I'm confused. But then again that's the way I like it!
You m'dear are a Gawd. Was soooo lovely to werk with. Let's "Do it Again".... and maybe I could sing this song for you while on stage with you again ... xoxo
I heard you gave me a shout out at IDKU - sadly I was hosting another event that night (a spelling bee if you can believe it). I'm sorry I missed you in Van City. Poo.
But additionally, I'm all nonplussed that I'm not still scraping along in Allston/Brighton, where I could come and stare at big hot chunky girls and get drunk at the Great Snot while ogling them.
Dammit. Please make Dr. Sketchy do a road show and bring that shit here.
