That's Weird Grandma
TWG Weekly Update
Let’s face it: technology is a hot topic. We are a society frantically trying to keep up with new technological inventions. Just getting or experiencing a new technological interface is the zeitgeist. This hardly leaves time to assess whether our new device or app or robot is good or actually improving our life.
Fortunately, Jose from Avondale School has pondered the tough questions for us in his argument-
I think we should have babysitter robots.
He weighs the good and the bad- efficiency vs. human connection, taking vs. deferring responsibility for one’s children… it’s all there.
Also, this is your last chance to see this particular cast performing these particular stories. I know the show changes every week, but certain cast members will have their last show on Monday and so certain popular stories will likely leave the show.
Have you seen, for example, The Model? Good Days? I am a Dragon?
Popular, great, not to be missed.
Be there.
$2 off at the box office by saying, “babysitter robots”

School Shows
For all of you who missed the Dixon School show this morning, let me just tell you that it was INCREDIBLE! I was so excited to see all of the students I worked with as well as meet all of the other talented kids at Dixon!
I’m a little bummed that the show is over….but I won’t be sad for long, because I know you’ll keep writing those amazing stories and I hope the next time I see all of you that those journals are full of new and creative things to share! I had a blast working on this show, and I had an even better time seeing all of your wonderful faces in the audience.
Till next time! Kaitlen

School Shows
Ladies and Gents, I have to say one of the best parts of doing a show with Anthony, is the amazingly, fantastic snack table he brings to rehearsal. Yes, we all know him as an super talented actor and all around good guy; but have you tried the tasty asparagus or the glutton free cookies, that’s good stuff baby!
With out question, Meredith’s puppets for “The Bone Family” are absolutely spectacular; but on Monday our snack table had fresh fruit and pie…say what!!! I’ll bet you’ll rush to sign up next time Courser’s in a show.
Carly busts an ice cold rap about texting, with Annie, McKenzie and Lacy doing some awesome hip hop moves in the back ground, but all the while I have my eye on the fresh bread and the carrots. Oh yeah!!!
But in all seriousness yall, come check out the Dixon Show. The snack table is great, but the show is going to be phenomenal!!

TWG Weekly Update
Friends of the internets,
That’s Weird, Grandma continues to swell with greatness. We took out Untitled (Beach) because, let’s face it, does anyone even know who Demi Lovato is anymore?
I don’t. But I never really did. Demi, we never knew ya.
Joining the show this week are:
I am a Dragon
And
The Limo Party. The Limo Party has a lot of celebrity appearances, but they are more recognizable celebrities to a 20-37 something crowd than Demi Lovato.
I’m sorry, Demi Lovato. I don’t know what you did to deserve my ambivalence on this blog post, except star in a Disney Channel show I’ve never seen cause I can’t afford cable.
Password for $2 off this week is “Demi Lovato”.
Be there.
