Effable's Own Jenny Anderson Takes Bushwick

So, after a much-needed post-show hiatus, we're back and rolling.

Updates:

1. This September's SCL: 20Nothings was an eff-ing SOLD OUT success, largely due to the contributions of roughly 3 dozen actors, assistants, volunteers, playwrights, directors, dancers, artists and choreographers, not to mention all the friends, family and donors. We were, and are, literally without words to express the thanks and enthusiasm. So, since we're out of words, click through and look at THESE PRETTY PICTURES FROM THE SHOW INSTEAD.

2. We've got new projects in the works!! More on that later.

3. Photographer and Effable Resident Artist Jenny Anderson, whose absolutely fantastic debut portrait series was ogled and adored as part of SLC: 20Nothings, was recently named one of the Top 25 hottest new photography talents to watch by Brooklyn-based gallery and art mecca 3rd Ward. We were going to blog all about how proud (and honored) we are to work with this immensely talented woman, and how much prouderer we were to see her art on the walls of a gallery we truly love.

But then Effable tech mastermind and real-life writer Zac Wilson beat us to it and made a video. 

So, without further ado, here's what went down with Jenny Anderson's big show, as scored by Lady Gaga (thanks Zac). Keep your eyes peeled for many Effable cameos amid the hipsteratti of Brooklyn:

Are You Effable?



You have reached the Official Blog of Effable Arts--congratulations.


Ha, you have no idea who we are, do you? It's okay, you can be honest. Come on...the truth will set you free. See, that wasn't so hard, was it?


Don't worry, we're not offended. The reason this blog is here is so you do know who we are. Or, more specifically, who we are, what we do, what we're up to, how we're doing it and how you can be involved.


So, a little bit about us:


Effable Arts is a bourgeoning performing arts company based in New York City. Founded by twentysomethings Brad Landers, Kimberly Kaye and Meredith Packer as an antidote to reality TV and jukebox musicals, our mission is simple: to provide a performance forum for the creative voices of today while developing a safe place for artists to hone their craft.


Our art collective is comprised of traditional theater artists—including actors, dancers, directors and choreographers—as well as writers, musicians, filmmakers and visual artists, all working in tandem to create while entertaining and provoking audiences. Effable Arts also provides a safe and constructive place for creative talents from across all mediums to hone their craft.


That's just a little, blog-worthy bit of info about us. Over the coming days, weeks, months and, hopefully, years, we'll be presenting everything from full theatrical productions to art exhibitions to readings and back again, as well as concerts, film screenings, poetry slams, dance offs and everything in between. Yeah, it's a lofty goal. But we've got a stable full of hungry, worthy talent repping all genres of art--and trust us, you want to see their work. Even better, the collective is growing by the day, so if you're an artist of any kind looking to show your work, get and give feedback, help support independent art or just grow professionally, get in touch with us. We're effablearts@gmail.com, and we love emails (they go so well with coffee).


So...are you effable?
