Being a part of the company is an absolute joy and we appreciate all of the support you guys throw at us!

You had me at "oldest boner jokes ever written". My bravery feels rewarded already.

I didn't recognize you without your beard.

I'm faceblind. If you wear a hat, I can't recognize you.

I am still so absurdly shocked that I'm a part of this. Everyone marking their calendars, I think I can speak for everyone when I say we can't wait to give you guys a hell of a show.

You sold me at a performance of 'lysistrata'! It's such an underrated play and I'm so excited to see your performance!

YEEEESSSSSSS!

I'm just happy to see you're okay.

OH MAN, LYSISTRATA! We read that in college, and I was legit dying when I read it for homework that night! It's SO GOOD!

I'm so excited for this aaaaaaaaaaa I love lysistrata

Wow! I love it! I mean, I'm sad that it happened in part because the larger live entertainment industry is collapsing, but honestly in 2020 you take what you can get.

Don't listen to them about the beard, Kyle, obviously you're doing it for masking. You look lovely, friend!

1 o'clock Sunday night? Count me in!!! (Aristophanes is sooo awesome!)

HOLY SHIT YES I read Lysistrata for a course I took on Ancient Greece and I would LOVE to see a performance of it like this

I'm clicking so fast, your Midsummer performance was so good I'm so excited!

Kyle, I've been following your work since TGWTG and that first Shakespeare Month video you uploaded. I am not a theatre man, but I will subscribe and support you. Brave move and thank you for all of this.

I’m down! This sounds fun🤗

So nice to have this released on my birthday!

This is amazing and am very hyped

I'm really excited to see how the new format will affect the performance

I like the new look Kyle! I hope y’all’s theater shows keep going!!! I’ll probably listen to them like an audio play

Same here. He looks like a high school english teacher. I mean that as a compliment.

This sounds like a crazy, amazing concept. :D

Kyle your eyeliner is sharp as hell

You are marvelous, my good man. I will give your plays a watch, I promise.

That's pretty cool, good luck!

I love your new look Kyle! You look good! I will definitely watch it.

This is wonderful news! Your performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream was an absolute joy :)

As someone whose choir season has been reduced to one pop-up in December and one...sometime early 2021, a performance like this is exactly what I needed.

Did you get new glasses? They look nice.

Oh, hell yeah!!

LYSISTRATA! Bravo!

Is your company (since it's all online and could theoretically connect with people anywhere) going to open up membership/auditions for future social distanced performances? I miss acting so much.

Excited to experience my first greek play since reading Antigone in high school! Speaking of the ancient greeks, has anyone ever made a version of Midsummer Night's Dream where the supernatural characters are explicidly Zeus, Hera, and Hermies?

Such an honor to be a part of this company again!!!

Yay! The day After my birthday and my friend Alexandra is in the cast!!!

Love you!

Just watched your Westworld video- hoping to make it for the Lysis. stream!

Congratulations! Just subscribed.

I haven’t listened to anything you said before clicking the link and subscribing to the new channel.

I just love everything about this project. I wish I was able to send my curriculum in time to audition to the company, but I’m finishing my last semester in college and my thesis that actually has to do with lisistrada but with comedy in general (and antifascism)

Kyle, I am so ecstatic for you! I hope to participate in one of your online plays. :D

Ooo I love the Ellen McLaughlin modernization! I did a monologue from it when i acted.

YAY! You look like me now! Welcome to the Hannah Gadsby look-a-like club. I am so proud.

Nice haircut, Kyle!

Go Kyle!

I'd love to see King Lear one day! (No, not because I'm studying it in school whaaaaaa)

An announcement declaring a Worlds Elsewhere dedicated KZread channel? A new production? Classy boner jokes? It's not even my birthday! Well, it is, actually, but you didn't know that.

this is me trying to remember if I read this play in college or not 😅

Chances are good it's *not* going to sound like the version you read ;)

Will the theater videos be subtitled later? Because that would really help me as English is my third language and I had problems understanding some of the words in A Midsummer Night's Dream when they were 'only' spoken.

it's probably far too late in the process but it seems like it would be a great idea to simulcast this and future plays on twitch, as far as i know twitch is a lot better for discoverability and revenue (everybody who has amazon prime gets five free bezos bucks to give away to a twitch streamer and more people have prime than landline telephones)

Hu okay.

Man u look different without the beard

Still think there is some merit to using vr chat or similar for a stage.

I know that asexuality wasn't a thing (at least in our modern interpretation) at the time Lysistrata was written but I feel like there's a joke about asexuality and not making love to not make war somewhere in there. Congrats on the new channel though!

Was it just a coinsidence that The thumbnail looked like this is sponsored by Gaia?

You guys going to do your own original work? If this works you could make it a platform where new creators could get there start

You son of a bitch I'm in!

I'm down.

Kyle, grow back your beard! You're freaking me out!

What is that... on your head? A raven's-coat raven's nest?

Where is the beard

I'm sorry. Who are you?

Kyle, you look like... A normal man, you ok?

Best of luck with your new channel. Hope everything goes well and no bullshit copyright claims. Me attending the next performance. That will be a no. Already have previous plans. And interest immediately did a 180 when activism was said. Our definition of activism is different. Yours goes into preaching, and if I wanted to get preached at, I'd go to a southern Baptist or Christian fundamentalist church. It'll be a respectable pass.
