Booked and Blessed...OR BUST! (formerly Something, Somewhere, Somehow) is a hilarious exploration of showbiz in the 21st century. Set in the heart of the New York theatre scene, it takes an absurdist lens to the experiences of actors, agents, and casting directors. Lucille gets a Broadway contract, but isn’t immediately catapulted into stardom. Walter tries to find comfort in a great callback, but turns violent when he doesn’t get the part. Brig tries to keep his agency afloat. Shannon tries to apply her acting skills to a new endeavor. Ruffles tries to squeak his rubber duckie in peace, but ends up starring in one of Shakespeare’s greatest roles. A bunch of Noodle people dance from audition to audition, trying to keep their heads up despite knowing the odds are ever in someone else’s favor. At its heart, the play asks “what does it take to succeed in this business—and what does it look like, when you do?”
