TP154 The R. & F. Invocation
Lee Lozowick and E.J.

Mr. Gold recommends this talk that uses the analogy of "running & f--king" as a prime example of an invocation in which the content is not significant for its meaning but rather for indication of group mood-shifts and space changes that reveal how the invocation is proceeding.

TP157 Creation Story Verbatim
You should hear the Lord do Her...yes, Her! Thing in this recording of a live performance of the play at the Nevada Theatre, Nevada City, CA, under the direction of author E.J. Gold. Grace Kelly Rivera's Lord is wonderful - her demeanor suggests at one and the same time a Puerto-Rican Long Island Jewish Princess and Lady Macbeth in full regal mourning, high-camp style. Robbert Campbell is equally roaringly funny as the Archangel Gabriel, the archetypical "straight man". His befuddled, ruffled-feather, Stan-Laurel-hint of Divinity coupled with his not-so-heavenly antics provide the perfect (and possibly eternal) foil to the Lord, Herself.
