RAPID FIRE 20Q WITH PLAYWRIGHTS AND CAST MEMBERS OF ‘SAYRE’; Presented by Brand Spankin’ New Theatre at Playhouse 615 February 28 through March 9

February 27, 2025 by Jonathan

Co-written by Bel Stuart and Emily Dodson, SAYRE: An Original Musical About Spirited Women in the Athens of the South, will take to the stage at Playhouse 615 (11920 Lebanon Road, Mt. Juliet, TN 37122) beginning Friday, February 28 with shows through March 9. Earlier this week, as the playwrights and cast readied for opening night of this World Premiere production presented by Brand Spankin’ New Theatre, I had the chance to pose a few questions to Stuart and Dodson, as well as two members of the cast—Tameshia Martin and Mandy Moon, for my latest Rapid Fire 20Q. What follows are those conversations.

—————

RAPID FIRE 20Q WITH PLAYWRIGHTS AND CAST MEMBERS OF SAYRE

RAPID FIRE WITH SAYRE CO-PLAYWRIGHT, BEL STUART

JHPENTERTAINMENT: What can you tell me about the plot of SAYRE?

BEL STUART: SAYRE follows a group of women inspired by the Muses of Greek Mythology during an Open Mic night at the fictional Athena’s, a woman owned metaphysical shop and cafe. Throughout the course of their evening we address women’s and civil rights currently and historically in Tennessee and the critical role Nashville played in those movements. By personifying these struggles we hope to bring a broader understanding to all the ways a woman’s work is never done. 

JHPENTERTAINMENT: In researching to chat with you all, I discovered there was a reason this show seemed familiar to me. While I didn’t get the chance to see it, it premiered back in 2019, right?  What prompted you to revisit this work and remount it with Brand Spakin’ New Theatre?

 BEL STUART: Emily and I wrote and produced that version in just four months in 2019! The first monologue was written on June 1st and we workshopped it at Centennial Black Box the last week of September with our original cast. The plan was to produce a larger scale version in 2020 as part of the 100th Anniversary of Women’s Right to Vote but the pandemic shut all theatres down. I pivoted to writing/producing a socially distanced filmed theatre piece titled THE MUMU MEMOIRS with Metro Arts and Thrive Funding. Life took over and the timing to pick it back up had just never seemed right until now. Robby, Abby and I performed together in SORDID LIVES directed by Erin Grace Bailey at Playhouse 615 last July. I had spoken to them all then about SAYRE and the regret of it never reaching its potential. Robby approached me to read the original script and produce it this year in conjunction with BSN. We met with Abby to direct and here we are! We all believe it is absolutely the right time and place for the message of this show. 

JHPENTERTAINMENT: Speaking of BSN and the company’s founder, Robert Coles serves as this production’s producer. What’s been the best aspect of having him onboard?

BEL STUART: I think Robby is a great supporter of theatre in this town and is helping to expand the scene with more original adaptations and writing. 

JHPENTERTAINMENT: As alluded above, the show was co-written by Emily Dodson, who I’ll also be chatting with about SAYRE, so I’m curious to know how you two met and what makes her a great fit as a co-writer?

BEL STUART: Emily and I met at Ladies Rock Camp just a few months prior to embarking on our whirlwind adventure of co-writing the original script in 2019. We realized we had some common threads with people in our lives initially but we operate very differently creatively speaking. We have found this to be a huge benefit as co-writers, however. At the core of what makes us work is our hearts. When you’re tackling the material we present in SAYRE, it is almost impossible to not get emotionally charged or overwhelmed. The stories we tell through these characters are all very much rooted in the women we have been and known in Nashville over the years. Having such a strong natural bond and trust has been the key to success both in our comprehension of our process and our true desire for collaboration with mutual respect and support. 

JHPENTERTAINMENT: In addition to co-writing the script, you also serve as the show’s musical director. When creating the music for this show, was there a preconceived tone or vibe you wanted to convey or did it morph as you went along developing the story?

BEL STUART: These songs are all written by Emily and myself and they are quite diverse. Some were pieces floating around without a home and some were written specifically for SAYRE. The common thread is that they all were the perfect drivers in the storytelling of these characters. I grew up in and around the music business here and Emily has been a local now for most of her adult life. The songs are so important and it was critical that each character has their own voice. We hope that reflects in their performances. The music is mostly confessional and that takes on different tones through the women you meet in this show. 

RAPID FIRE WITH SAYRE’s MEMORY, TAMESHIA MARTIN

JHPENTERTAINMENT: Who is Memory to you?

TAMESHIA MARTIN: Memory is QUEEN MOTHER. She is the very reason that creation exists. She is a strong, fierce leader with a creative imagination that paints very vivid, detailed pictures of her life, as evidenced throughout the piece with her specific choice of vocabulary.

JHPENTERTAINMENT: Right from the get you not only have a rather lengthy monologue that starts the show, but you also perform SAYRE’s first musical number. Is there a particular piece of dialogue or lyric that you feel perfectly represents Memory?

TAMESHIA MARTIN: In the initial monologue, Memory states: “I am the unlikely mother of multitudes. I am a mystery within myself. Let me define that simply for you. I am my own. And where this is madness, there is magic!” That has to be THE MOST POWERFUL set of lines in the entire show for Memory. She admits to being who she is, flaws and all, DIFFERENT, a PERFECT IMPERFECTION! In other words, she let’s this world know that although I am a bit rough around the edges with some bruising and scarring if you will, that does not define my character. I AM GREAT. I AM WORTHY. I AM A PIECE OF ART. MY PAST DOES NOT DEFINE ME. I AM MAGICAL! POINT! BLANK! PERIOD! And that is not up for discussion or negotiation. 

JHPENTERTAINMENT: First monologue, first song…SAYRE also marks your first time to be part of a show mounted at Playhouse 615. What’s the experience been like thus far?

TAMESHIA MARTIN: This experience is very special to me. It has definitely challenged me in a great way, expanding my ability to character develop. I have played several characters throughout my career, but not one quite this robust and spicy! Thanks to Bel Stuart (one of the original authors of SAYRE and music director) and Abby Waddoups (the director of the show), for giving me free range to develop this character through my very on lens. 

JHPENTERTAINMENT: If you weren’t playing Memory, is there another character in Sayre that you’d like to tackle?

TAMESHIA MARTIN: Definitely Memory’s daughter, Mel. She is definitely her mother’s child. She is a representation of leadership, fire and strength as well, but from a little softer perspective. Mel not only holds her own life together, but she keeps the doors of Athena’s open and running after her mother’s death to help all the other women “hold their lives together” as well, in a very private space where they all come to hash out all the CRAZY that life has thrown them. That is an example of a kind human that cares about others……that’s pretty special to me.

JHPENTERTAINMENT: Memory is the original owner of the cafe, so I want to ask you about the set design and the immersive aspect of the show. Of course your thoughts on this might change once the show opens and the audiences fills those bistro tables, but for now…how do you think having members of the audience right there in the midst of the action might affect the energy of your performance?

TAMESHIA MARTIN: It will only enhance the performance. The audience will feel like an integral part of the open mic night, and that is the very point of Athena’s existence, for everyone to feel welcomed, wanted, included, and in a safe space. Drawing the audience into my world is going to be magical for them and myself. They will definitely leave Athena’s better than they came.

RAPID FIRE WITH SAYRE’s ECHO, MANDY MOON

JHPENTERTAINMENT: Who is Echo?

MANDY MOON: Echo, in mythology, is an Oread, a mountain nymph. The story of ECHO comes from Hera removing her “voice” due to her suspicions of ECHO consorting with Zeus. Her punishment from Hera was that she could only repeat, or echo, the last words spoken to her. In Sayre, Echo is a late 70s rock goddess (think Stevie Nicks/Ann Wilson energy), who co-hosts with Era at Athena’s. She is a singer-songwriter and a part of the coffee house artist community. She is nurturing, loving, and peaceful, but also lost, but in a beautiful way as an artist. Echo is everyone’s voice in Sayre and shares the stage with the cast throughout the show as a seasoned musician supporting her friends and community.

JHPENTERTAINMENT: Echo, as described in the character breakdown, is a singer/songwriter and host of the coffeehouse’s open mic night. As a singer/songwriter yourself in real life, the character seems to pretty much echo (pun fully intended) your own creative path. So I gotta ask, what are key similarities and differences in your on-stage persona in SAYRE and your own personality?

MANDY MOON: Sure. Haha yes, there was pure synchronicity when this part was offered to me in Sayre. I don’t think the production team knew I had experience hosting events, and open mics, and had done so in Nashville until after I accepted the role. Whether is was AAPI events, or events for charity or themed shows. That’s been a big part of my life as a musician and part of the Nashville music community. My real-world persona versus on-stage persona are close but far from each other. Echo and I are similar in how we see the world and want to be supportive of others and “hold space” in the best way for people to come as they are with their artistic expression. In my real-life persona, I do find myself much more sarcastic, dry, and unapologetic with how I show up as a woman and artist. It’s taken years to get here and find my voice. With Echo, while is an incredible musician, is still lost in that pursuit of who she is and how she shows up and speaks her truth. It brings me back to times when I questioned my values and who I was. I think Echo was the woman I was. We all were.

JHPENTERTAINMENT: As a singer/songwriter yourself, do you have a favorite musical moment in the show?

MANDY MOON: That’s so hard and without giving it away. 😉 I LOVE the sing-a-longs we do with our cast and hopefully at the show, with our audience! The end scene is extremely powerful and I don’t think Nashville is ready for this mic drop. 

JHPENTERTAINMENT: A quick peek at your show bio reveals you’ve been in Nashville for a decade now. What do you see as the biggest misconception when folks learn that you’re a singer/songwriter in Music City?

MANDY MOON: That I play country music. haha, I play a lot of soul, r&b, and jazz. But honestly, I consider myself a very genre-fluid songwriter. Letting go of what I need to sound like, or be, has given me absolute creative freedom to write more authentically. That also includes stepping into projects that stretch my comfort zone. I love Nashville for always continuing to challenge me. I’m incredibly grateful to Bel, Emily, and Abby for entrusting me.

JHPENTERTAINMENT: The show is directed by Abby Waddoups. What’s one aspect of Abby’s directing style that you appreciate as a performer?

MANDY MOON: Abby allows us to work very organically and fluidly with our characters’ stories. She is open to change and how we have developed with our role(s). With it being the 1st edition of this production, it’s given us as actors so much runway to develop these characters versus something that already exists. That also includes developing these songs from literally demo inception and arranging parts for each cast member. 

RAPID FIRE WITH SAYRE CO-PLAYWRIGHT EMILY DODSON

JHPENTERTAINMENT: When I chatted with Bel, I asked her what makes you a great fit as a co-writer, so I’ll ask you the same of her?

EMILY DODSON: We balance each other.  There was an instant authenticity and vulnerability to our relationship that is rare and I think we both knew we had to create together. Bel continues to set a fire under my ass and push me to let go of my tendency towards perfectionism. Co-writing isn’t for everyone and it isn’t always a good fit, but it helps when you find someone who truly sees your artistic genius and encourages you to let it free.  I think we do this for each other.  There’s a lot of competitive energy in this industry, which tends to smother creativity.  Bel and I don’t have that.  We encourage each other to allow our light to shine fully, without restraint or a need to diminish due to jealousy. It’s refreshing and I wish there was more of it in this world. 

JHPENTERTAINMENT: I also noted that the show was first produced back in 2019. What do you recall of the creative process of co-writing SAYRE?

EMILY DODSON:  It helped that it happened so organically, as if it had to happen and we were just vessels. The process was a bullet train and we were along for the ride, fast tracked, no stopping, and intent on the destination. The words came from our souls, tumbling out like water being released after being dammed too long.  It was our stories, taken from our lives or those we deeply loved. We had to tell them, there was no other alternative, especially with what was happening in our world.  

JHPENTERTAINMENT: Speaking of that 2019 debut, you not only co-wrote the script, but you also originated the role of Melpomene, the owner of the cafe. In this production, Mel is played by Emma Reinbold. Did you offer any advice to Emma as she takes the reins of the role?

EMILY DODSON: Actually, no. I offered support if she needed it, but I wanted Mel to be hers to mold. As a playwright, I write the words and then relinquish them to the director and cast. The actress side of me also considers this to be off limits.  Every production should be at least slightly different because every actor brings a different perspective to the character, otherwise the performance becomes stale. Trying to reproduce someone else’s portrayal has a tendency to lead to canned line readings and forced emotional responses, taking the performer out of being in the moment.  My training at The Atlantic Theatre Company at NYU really emphasized the importance of this and it has stuck with me.  Part of the creative process is finding your own personal connection with the character, making them yours, and having real moments with your scene partners. That’s what makes good theatre.  

JHPENTERTAINMENT: Having sadly missed that original production back in 2019, as I was preparing to chat with you all for this round of Rapid Fire 20Q, Robert Coles was kind enough to share with me the script. Before I even got into the story, I was immediately struck by the description of Athena’s the metaphysical coffee house that serves as the setting in which the action takes place. It’s described as “a welcoming older craftsman residence turned shop that encourages hours of conversations while surrounded by all manner of creative pursuit”. I think I spent a few hours in just such a place during my post-college years. While you’re originally from Virginia, you’ve called Nashville home for the past couple decades. So, I gotta ask…is Athena’s based on any real spot from Music City’s recent past?

EMILY DODSON: For me it’s a combo of places and times, during college it was mainly a coffee shop in the East Village of NYC called Alt Dot. I met many interesting folks there and it lent to a lot of good writing. When I moved to Nashville, I needed to find that space here. I stumbled across the original Bongo Java off of Belmont and it felt like home for me. I’ve been in East Nashville for most of my time in Nashville, not necessarily a coffee shop, but definitely a community vibe that nurtured me. During the creation of Sayre, we spent many an hour at High Garden (sadly lost to the tornado of 2020) and Retrograde.  I think all of them are represented in my version of Athena’s.

JHPENTERTAINMENT: What do you hope audiences take with them after a visit to Athena’s?

EMILY DODSON: That they are not alone in their experiences and feelings. Their power is still there and cannot be diminished or extinguished by someone else.  Your tribe is important. The most powerful thing you can do in life is to tell fear to go fuck itself because it will only keep you caged.  Take the leap, have the hard conversations, open your heart, let your genius shine, be bold and brave, and above all always remember that you….exactly as you are, with all your scars and bruises, are enough.

Rapid Fire 10Q with Director and Cast of ‘Lithium & Xanax & All of My Friends’; World Premiere production onstage at Darkhorse Theatre October 4-12

October 3, 2024 by Jonathan

Lithium & Xanax and All of My Friends, a thought-provoking play centering ‘round a young gay man struggling to finish his long-promised novel while simultaneously dealing with self-doubt and cerebral upheaval is the latest work from Nashville-based playwright, Robert Coles. Quite the departure from his most recent production, the southern comedy Aunt Sally’s Wild Ride, which recently wrapped a sold out run in Nashville.

Having first been introduced by way of a Zoom reading during the COVID-19 pandemic, Lithium & Xanax and All of My Friends enjoyed a successful workshop in New York in August 2024. Now comes time for a fully fleshed-out production as Brand Spankin’ New Theatre presents the World Premiere production of Coles’ Lithium & Xanax & All of My Friends at the Darkhorse Theatre beginning Friday, October 4 and continuing through Saturday, October 12.

As the cast and crew ready the piece for their Music City opening night, I recently had the opportunity to pose a few questions to the show’s director, Bradley Moore and cast members Payton Justice and Taryn Pray for my latest Rapid Fire Q&A interview in an effort to get a little insight into the show. What follows are those conversations.

—————

Rapid Fire 10Q with Director and Cast of Lithium & Xanax & All of My Friends

Rapid Fire Q&A with Lithium & Xanax & All of My Friends lead actor, Payton Justice

JHPENTERTAINMENT: How would you describe Adam, the character you play in Lithium & Xanax & All of My Friends?

PAYTON JUSTICE: Adam’s a young writer who’s indecisive, headstrong, and a bit neurotic. Honestly, just a lovable mess just trying to figure things out. He’s been through a lot—losing his dad, the trauma of conversion therapy, dealing with manic depression, and having to manage a lot of guilt from his past mistakes. He spends a lot of time in his own head, which really trips him up.

JHPENTERTAINMENT: The subject matter of the work is some pretty heady stuff. How do you prepare for the intensity of the scenes? AND…what’s your favorite way to decompress after such intense work?

PAYTON JUSTICE: It gets intense for sure. I try to remind myself of my own personal experiences to find the emotions he’d be feeling. I try to remember a similar conversation or conflict, and remind myself of how that felt or something that was said. 

Bradley Moore’s been awesome in helping me fine-tune Adam’s intentions. Truly a fantastic director. The cast has been awesome too. They push me through tough moments, and sometimes their choices completely change how I see a scene, which is really cool.

To decompress, I try to leave the work in the rehearsal room or at the theater. My cats and video games definitely help me unwind too.

JHPENTERTAINMENT: While Adam is aware of his shortcomings, he doesn’t seem to know how to move past them. Heck, I can totally relate myself. Has exploring this aspect of the character motivated you to move full-steam ahead in any aspect of your own life?

PAYTON JUSTICE: Yeah, totally. Playing Adam has been a bit of a wake-up call. I moved to Nashville at the beginning of 2020, right before everything went crazy, and it’s taken time to find my rhythm. I’m really feeling ready to focus in on acting and let go of all the things that don’t matter in the bigger picture.

Rapid Fire Q&A with Lithium & Xanax & All of My Friends cast member Taryn Pray

JHPENTERTAINMENT: What can you tell me about Mom, the character you play in Lithium & Xanax & All of My Friends?

TARYN PRAY: What I love about this role is yes, the main character I play is “Mom,” but I also play a few flashback and ancillary characters as well – which is so much fun as an actor! There is a lot of comedy in the other characters that I play, and then I get to be this very complex character of “Mom,” as she is trying to navigate her broken relationship with her son in his darkest moment.  It is very compelling because you understand her perspective as well as Adam’s – not one person is to blame. Before I read this play, I thought the mother might be the villain in this story, but she is not. Is she flawed? Absolutely. Did she make some mistakes? Yes. But what is really beautiful to me is that they come to understand each other and can move forward.    

JHPENTERTAINMENT: I understand the character of Mom wasn’t even really a character in the earlier iteration of the play, only a ‘flashback’ as played by another cast member, but following the recent NYC workshop of the piece, the playwright revised the script and fleshed out Mom as a full character. That said, how excited are you to be bringing this character to life on stage for the first time anywhere?

TARYN PRAY: I absolutely love acting in new works! It’s really exciting to originate a role and bring your own take, without any reference to how other actors have performed it.  Also knowing that this play is very much rooted in the playwright’s own life story, I feel a tremendous amount of responsibility and honor in playing this role. I am thrilled that this character was expanded as a result of the workshop, and love seeing the nuance in her complicated relationship with Adam.

JHPENTERTAINMENT: From what your director told me, you two had sort of worked together previously…I say sort of because during the pandemic, you were part of a couple of Bradley Moore’s The Big Read Zoom events, in which he presented readings of some iconic film scripts as performed by area actors. I gotta tell you, those readings were such a blessing to the theatre community as they allowed us to connect—though virtually—during a time when theatre was so missed. Now you’re working with Bradley face-to-face and in person as your director, so I gotta ask..how has the experience been so far and what do you appreciate most about Bradley as a director?

TARYN PRAY: Oh my goodness, yes! I met Bradley for the first time virtually, and those readings truly were such a bright light in a dark time. Having the opportunity to perform when we were all stuck at home was definitely a blessing.  And now getting to work with him in this play has been an incredible experience. What I love about Bradley is he has such a clear vision as a Director; he has brought out so much from the cast as we are developing these characters, while still giving us space to make them our own, and he has created some truly beautiful imagery on stage. He really thinks through and has a purpose in all the little details he gives in his direction, and I’m just so excited for people to see it. Also, he’s just a blast to work with 😉

Rapid Fire with Lithium & Xanax & All of My Friends director, Bradley Moore

JHPENTERTAINMENT: How did you come to direct Lithium & Xanax & All of My Friends?

BRADLEY MOORE: I was actually lucky enough to perform in the first reading of this play on Zoom & FB Live way back in the Covid-y days of 2020. I was totally honored when the playwright, Robert M. Coles, reached out to me earlier this year and told me he had been working on the script and wanted me to direct the world premiere of the show. I even spent some time in NYC this summer observing the workshop of the play, where some things changed and so much subtext was explored. It has been a wonderful journey from my first connection to the piece to where we are today. The show is definitely ready for its Nashville maiden voyage, especially with this insanely talented cast.

JHPENTERTAINMENT: What can you tell me about your cast?

BRADLEY MOORE: They are bananas. I have not directed a show in Nashville in five years; it was so cool to have auditions for this show and see that the talent in Nashville is still just as incredible as it has always been. This cast is filled with six dynamic artists who take risks, make strong choices, challenge themselves, challenge me, crave collaboration, exude passion, and blow me out of the water every single day with their insane talent. Not to mention, each and every one of them are kind and empathetic humans who just love what they do. I love the family we have built these past five weeks. And their connections and chemistry really come out on stage and through these complex characters they have created.

JHPENTERTAINMENT: You’ve not just assembled a talented cast, but you’ve surrounded yourself with a who’s who crew, among them, Cat Eberwine as your costumer. When does the play take place and how important is wardrobe in completing the look and feel of the show?

BRADLEY MOORE: This play takes place in 2022, so basically, the recent past. Costumes should always enhance the characters and assist in bringing them to life. We made more simplistic choices with the costumes, but the choices really do help to define these characters. As a director, I love some subtle Easter eggs hidden throughout the show. We definitely achieve that with this show through the set and costumes. It helps to keep production elements fresh and exciting, plus adds a layer of intrigue to the whole experience. This show is a journey, not just for the characters, but the audience too. Our costume and set choices are designed to really enhance that circumstance. I am so fortunate to have had Cat Eberwine as our Costume Czar and Jaymes Campbell as our Set Magician. These are two people who know me well, know my process and style, and really just knocked it out of the park. We could not have done this show without them. Also, big shoutout to Mary Hankins for always being an incredible stage manager, Robert Allen for his beautiful lighting, and Josiah Kareck for understudying every single role. Truly, surrounded by the best, on and off-stage. 

JHPENTERTAINMENT: What do you hope audiences come away thinking about long after seeing Lithium & Xanax and All of My Friends?

BRADLEY MOORE: As a director, I always say — if the audience walks away feeling something, then we have done our job. However, it is impossible for us to always know what the audience will feel. With a play like Lithium, I believe people’s life experiences will inform what they take away from this show. The play is funny, yet beautifully heavy and impactful. I don’t think it is possible to sit through this 75 minute show and not feel a single thing; in fact, I think it is more likely that someone watching will experience all the feels. It is a rollercoaster ride, so just buckle in and get ready to take a journey. I am excited to see the feedback we get from this tremendous piece that Robert gifted us.
