Tonight: Pirates, Patriots, Patricides

Hey, gang. If you're looking for something to do this evening and need something to tide you over until Colorful World opens, the Stolen Chair Theatre Group, to celebrate the opening of The Accidental Patriot: The Lamentable Tragedy of the Pirate Desmond Connelly, Irish by Birth, English by Blood, and American by Inclination, presents Pirates, Patriots, Patricides, several evenings of short works of theatre inspired by the play's themes and styles.

And tonight (and May 7), Nosedive is involved.

Tonight's show features "The Adventures of Blackie Nobeard," written by Yours Truly with Kid Sister Rebecca Comtois, featuring Rebecca as Blackie Nobeard, that rascally lady pirate who’s always in a jam! With Special Guest Star Brian Silliman as "The 'Swain."

The sublime silliness is directed by Matt Johnston.

So, if you've had the hankering to see my sister's Alf impression while wearing a pirate hat, come on down tonight to the Milagro Theatre on 107 Suffolk Street.

The show's at 8 p.m., tickets are $12, which you can get here.

Tested positive for scurvy,

James "Salty Jack" Comtois
