The MOMMY PROJECT: the real poop on parenting.
Growing Up 101 --- Pandora pieces together the puzzle of parenting and being
parented.
THE MOMMY PROJECT is a saucy, fun, irreverent and candid cure for the 
common cultural misunderstanding that mothering (parenting) is all smiles
and giggles.  This one-woman  comedy by spoken-word/stand-up poet Pandora
Scooter  is sure to leave audiences, particularly anyone who is a mom or has
a mom, feeling great.

OCEAN MILE -- The Reading of a Serialized Screenplay by Maureen Nevin


"The Deal" - the first episode of "Ocean Mile",
a TV Sitcom Pilot by Maureen Nevin of Asbury Radio fame.

Anyone who has heard Maureen's program Thursday nights on WYGG 88.1 FM knows that Asbury's colorful characters are never at a loss for something to say about their home town.

"OCEAN MILE -- The Deal" is no exception.

The audience is asked to present the other characters who'll bring to life
subsequent episodes.

After 15 years of economic captivity at the hands of an out-of-state
bankruptcy court, the beleaguered residents of Ocean Mile, NJ have a
developer who promises to break the spell. A parade of savvy old timers and
hopeful new comers drop into Rhoda's Deli, in the shadow of the skeletal
hull of a hi-rise condo tower frozen in time when the last hot market
crashed through town 20 years ago.


Join us upstairs at
The Paramount Upstairs Mezzanine Lobby
Ocean Ave.
Asbury Park
8 PM
$5 suggested donation at the door
Cash Bar Available
