Death of a Samurai

                 USA Weekly News 100 Star Award winner
 at the 2009 Edinburgh Fringe 

SHAKESPEARE meets JAPANESE SUBCULTURE

  Death of a Samurai

Shakespeare, the great playwright in Britain,

and the world of MANGA, Japan is proud before the whole world joined in “Death of a Samurai” 

«Story»

Once upon a time, in the future…

The world, a hundred years after the great flood.

It was a world like Japan when Samurai existed.

The dark age when people living in the civil war-chaos.

A girl and her guardian werewolf lived in the deep forest.

They were running away from the enemies aiming at her special power.

She could give immortality to whom she kissed in exchange for her own life. 

This is a love story of the girl and her power, and people around her with desperate killing.  

«Writer&Director Sasaki Tomohiro»

“When meeting something tremendous, beyond our imagination, we are moved, feel powerful emotion, tense up and began to smile, cry or get angry. So, I think that getting excited and being deeply moved is indispensable for us to live our life. No one can live without feeling strong emotion and tension.

I’m sure that it is a mission of entertainment to give such a special experience to the world. And that is what I desire to achieve through my work. “Death of a Samurai” is sure to be the work like that.”

Death of a Samurai
is the winner of a USA Weekly News 100 Star Award at the 2009 Edinburgh Fringe Fest
.

Death of a Samurai  is a on at the Vault Venue (29) 11 Merchant Street, Edinburgh at 8.30 pm

1. Sarjeela Kersho, well known English comic, writer, actress, MC and promoter of Comedy who runs a comedy group called Comic Angels. Sarjeela is certainly an angel and a funny one at that...Sarjeela Kersho has two shows at the 2009 Edinburgh Fringe Festival. One is the Spirit of the Fringe, which is a show Sarjeela hosts and is a showcase of 2009's spirits of the fringe including stand-up, sketches, bite sized show tasters, gossip, star interviews and Sarjeela's unique speed promoting event to help punters decide what shows to see. Sarjeela was a winner of a 2008 If. Comedy Spirit of the Fringe Award. Spirits of the Fringe is a must see show for audiences and performers and is on at an ideal time of 10.25 pm at the Counting House catch up on all the latest gossip around the fringe, find out which are the hot shows to see and have a few end of the night drinks at the Counting House to cap a great fringeday off.  Sarjeela Kersho, also has her own show at the 2009 Edinburgh Fringe Fest called Bitch Got Owned
 and is directed by Catherine Harvey. The Bitch Got Owned was previously seen in Brendon Burns' 2007 IF. Comedy Award winning show and is being performed at 5.10pm in the Kasbar Room in the Esionage, venue 185, 4 India Buildings, Victoria Street, Edinburgh
. "Vilified on You Tube, thrown out of the House of Commons, unwittingly inviting a BNP member in for tea...These are just a few of the pickles Sarjeela Kersho has found hereself in. Now she reveals the real woman behind the Asian provocateur." 'Will be a big name in Comedy**** One4review. "Sarjeela is really heading for the bright lights. and well deserves an over five star review with a recommendation to on the list for serious consideration for a USA Weekly News 100 Star Award ..." USA Weekly News
Another great show to see is the Cubicle on at 3.25pm at the Counting House-devised from people's thoughts on toilet doors, we see snippets of a selection of bizarre characters obsessions, heartbreak and gneral crudeness. The piece is entirley collaborative and gives a new twist to the phrase 'toilet humour'.  The Cubicle is followed by another free fringe show not to be missed, 'the 80's Movie Flashback' , a comic look at your 80's movie characters and where they are now,  starring Rachel Anderson, Rik Moore and Fraser ( BBC Radio I's 'My Flatmate the comedian')....'Fabulously funny original gags'..(Chortle.co.uk).
2. Sarjeela Kersho introduces one of the perfomers at the 2009 Edinburgh Fringe Fest during the a show show hosts called "The Spirit of the Fringe" which is on every night at the Counting House at about 10pm which provides the general pubic and people involved with other fringe shows a chance to view short taster previews of other shows and finf ouit what are the hot shows being performed at Alex Petty's Free Fringe and other fringe shows during the 2009 Edinburgh Fringe Fest.
3, 4 and 5: The cast from Death Of A Samurai excited about their USA Weekly News 100 Star Award for being an exceptional show that is way above the ordinary five star standard for a Fringe Performance. In 2006 the SA Weekly News created the USA Weekly News 100 Star Award for fringe shows that are way above the average five star standard as the fringe equivalent to an Academy Award of the Fringe. The first fringe shows to receive a USA Weekly News 100 Star award in 2006 was Love Labours Won,  a Shakespearean verse style play with Black Adder style comedy, written by the up and coming playwright-Singer Songwriter, Ryan J Smith. The Editor for the USA Weekly News  described Love Labours Won as "Trendy Shakespeare" and stated in the review that "if there were 100 stars available to give Love Labours Won, I would have to give this show 100 Stars". From then on the USA Weekly News 100 Star Award was born. The USA Weekly News tries to review as many shows a possible each year that perform in all the various segments of the Edinburgh Fringe Fest,  such as Street Buskers,  the Free Festival, The Free Fringe Festival, the Five Pound Fringe, and all the other venues where there is a few charged to see a fringe show. There is a misconception that just because a fringe show does not have a set price tag in it, such as the the free fringe shows and street theatre, that such shows are not as good as the paid ones. It seems that the the Scotsman, Three Weeks, The List, USA Weekly News,  the Fringe Shows Have Talent Team, and other fringe reviewers, have discovered the some of the most outstanding talent can be found amongst the free fringe shows and street theatre busking.  At the Edinburgh Fringe Fest,  you have to keep your eyes open, as you never know when you are going to find that absolute Gem, where you will instantly say to yourselves that this act will be on the world entertainment circuit before long.

Holly Penfield_Rare Live Clip1 2007 Edinburgh Fringe Fest  - www.edfringe.biz - www.edfringe.info - www.edfringe.com  - www.fringeshowshavetalent.com

Amazingly talented Holly Penfield came and stunned audiences at a cosy venue at the 2007 Edinburgh Fringe Festival. a seasoned cabaret artist who entertains all over the USA , gave the Edinburgh Fringe Festival audiences a rare a treat. The Fringe Shows Have Talent Team were lucky enough to film Holly Penfields shows. POPULAR San Francisco-based singer-songwriter Holly Penfield, offering an enticing mix of cabaret and burlesque. For those who’ve not heard of Volupté , the Vaudeville-style venue is located in the backstreets of Chancery Lane and offers a world of pleasure and exquisite delight, where anything goes. A dimly lit upstairs cocktail bar offers visitors the chance to smoke cigars and watch old movie clips, while the downstairs cabaret salon/restaurant enables guests to vamp it up downstairs in a series of cutaway, hand-painted booths. Entertainment comes in the form of jazz bands, rock bands, musicians and cabaret singers, 1920s flapper dancers, comedy, Burlesque and Vaudeville extravaganzas – all with a sexy edge. Holly Penfield is one of the most popular attractions at Volupte, thanks to her distinctive voice, good looks and cheeky style. The quintessential California girl - blonde, sunny and kooky – Holly has played piano from a young age, admiring the work of Joni Mitchell, Carole King and Laura Nyro. Working in the Los Angeles music market, she recorded albums that were subsequently released worldwide. Songs from that stage of her career are reprised in her shows in tandem with songs more recently sung by her alternate persona - a scorching jazz diva wearing a black bobbed wig and near-burlesque costumes! If she looks like she plays Las Vegas, it’s because she does! Holly Penfield is a popular attraction at private parties in Caesar’s Palace and other deluxe hotels. But she has also been a regular fixture in London and Europe, having played in our capital’s plush Savoy Hotel as well as Café de Paris and in Edinburgh at the 16th Century Celtic Lodge, a Masonic temple seeped with a sense of history, mysticism and secret society. According to Tim Rice, “Holly Penfield is more than one fine diva she’s a whole host of them, and they all look wonderful and sound sensational!” for more on Holly visit www.fringeshowshavetalent. us 10TH DECEMBER TILL END OF JANUARY USA TOUR Holly will be on her USA tour, performing in Las Vegas, San Francisco and New York. Don't forget to check back soon for her UK 2009 dates! Holly Penfield Holly's Hot Spot - Friday, August 26, 2005 SOME PEOPLE ARE just special, fair and square. As Holly Penfield's crack squad of jazz musicians limber up with a few sultry bars, Metro overhears an elderly chap tell his pal how he hasn't missed a single show since the elfin San Franciscan began this Edinburgh stint. Before the evening is out, Penfield has had him jiving like a teenager and clambering over the audience to decorate everyone in fronds of pink ribbon -rather than merely tolerate it, we love it.

Beat up Dirty Yanks...peformed at the 2007 Edinburgh Fringe Festival in the famous Mercat Bar in West Maitland Street, Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom
http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&VideoID=52771772
Beat Up Dirty Yanks created and performed by the talented Ronnie Prouty, Ty Twiss and Tim Schwartz who call themselves Doubt Us productions and started their company and show because they were tired of conventional stand-up.They wanted to do something unique and different from what seemed to be the norm at comedy clubs. "Beat UP" Dirty Yanks is the first installment in a run of completely original character comedy shows. The show is a fresh and completely original alternative to most stand-up shows. "Beat UP" Dirty Yanks doesn't really contain well written jokes with witty punch-lines. The show doesn't focus on the joke but more on the chance to meet unique characters who happen to be funny people. for more on "Beat Up" Dirty YANKS go to http://www.usaweeklynews.c om/Beat_Up_Dirty_Yanks.htm l - "Beat Up" Dirty Yanks deputed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 07 and has been leaving audiences perplexed, half cheering in hysterics and half with dropped jaws. DoubtUS Productions is a fresh, completely original alternative to your average stand-up show. DoubtUS hopes to redefine the comedy experience by claiming Death to Stand-up! Ronnie Prouty is shrouded in spirituality and personal growth. A regular practitioner of transcendental mediation, he finds an outlet for his bizarre and outlandish behavior on stage. Ron has a talent for combing quick-wit with wild physical humor. Rons favorite outlet is comedy, he finds everything to be comical and enjoys bizarre and outlandish forms of expression. Alone in Los Angeles while Ty and Tim were in London, Ron developed his own unique and outrageous characters. He showcased his talents in clubs throughout Los Angeles and brought his audiences on rollercoaster rides. Tim Schwartz: A true traveler at heart, Tim has spent the better half of three years traveling the world as a means to ease his old soul. Tim is a man, full of passion, he spent his last summer as a volunteer in a Bulgarian orphanage. He has always had knack for comedy and began a career last fall as a stand-up in Los Angeles. Quickly picking up his bags he moved to London and advanced his career in a scene full of conventional stand-up comedians. He is a true believer in karma and feels the world is unjust and un communal. His spirit is strong and therefore keeps a strong support system around him. His dream is what started the DoubtUS team, therefore he brought his friends with him, those that he enjoys their company and admires their work. Ty Twiss: Working at a youth hostels in Los Angeles is where Ty first met Tim. Becoming friends quickly after finding themselves having similar views of the world, the two jokers took on peoples perceptions of reality with obscure antics and stylish personas. Tyler moved to Central America though, but after months of life in the sand Tyler and Tim met again in London. While Tim worked on his act with the help of the young stallion, Ty squated in Shoreditch running a speak easy to make ends meet.

Dar Williams-one of the most talented folk rock singers that came out of the USA alternative hippy culture that questions authority in a very pleasant way-wonders who will run the country if all the politicians end up in jail- Dar takes you back in time when TV was Black & White, and there were no DVD recorders, one had to plan the watching of a TV program with great effort because if you missed it, there was no back up dvd copy, to see the show at another time.Dar writes and sings her own amazing folk songs with a solid back band to put the rock into the folk. Street Teamers Needed For Northeast Tour! If you are interested in being a Street Team member to help distribute posters and fliers in your hometown, please email: dartour@gmail.com.For tour dates see: http://www.darwilliams.com About Dar Williams "With every album, I’m trying to figure out what I don’t have to say, while still giving each song its due," Dar Williams says. Of her new album, Promised Land, Williams commented, "On this one, I was paring the stories down to their core. I wanted the songs to sound simple and down to what they were meant to be, which is hard to do. It takes a lot of knowledge to get to the point where you can say what you need to say — no more, no less." To peel her insightful, melodic story-songs down to their essence, as well as inject them with the energy and momentum they clearly called for, Williams enlisted Brad Wood, a Grammy-nominated producer and musician known for his work with rock singer-songwriters Liz Phair, Pete Yorn, and Ben Lee. "Dar was looking to try something different and get out of her comfort zone," Wood says. "She had made a number of records and it seemed like a good time, career-wise, for her to make a chan I was flattered that she thought to ask me to help. Her voice is so great that you can do just about anything behind her and it’s going to sound cool!" Personally inspired by the spindly live feel of late '70s/early '80s albums by the Police, Elvis Costello, and the Pretenders, Wood manages to make Williams' elegant, worldly songs sound visceral and urgent, while preserving the integrity and emotion that have been hallmarks of her sound (along with a beautifully intimate, bell-clear voice) since Williams began playing out on the Northeast singer-songwriter circuit in the early ’90s. “Brad understood the songs and gave them the space they needed,” Williams says. “I love that clean, straightforward sound he gets.” And so Promised Land includes several immediately engaging toe-tappers, such as “It’s Alright,” “The Easy Way,” “Buzzer,” and “Go to the Woods,” as well as Williams’ trademark thoughtful balladry, including the keenly felt “Book of Love,” “The Tide Falls Away,” and “You Are Everyone. http://www.darwilliams.com In the past, Williams’ songwriting has located the personal in such universal topics as politics, religion, sexuality, and family. This time, rather than tie the songs together around any particular theme..
