We would like to invite you to Courting Magic!!
It’s funny, sweet and unique. It is unique because it was written by Daytime
Moon Creations and inspired by the actors! It’s also unique because there are three stories
in one. Crazy the Terrific and Lily the Flower are trying to figure out how to
write a story. In the Royal Court story Prince Vincent wants Princess Eile to be his friend,
but Eile doesn’t want Vincent to her friend. They each have a fairy godmother
to help them out. They remind us of the show Fairly Oddparents. The other story
is The Court of Law. In it Jonathan the evil business executive tries to
destroy the Highwayman’s show and Kurt the attorney has to help. Then later all of the two stories become
friends.
See you there!

In
a magical land where creativity blossoms, a children's book author,
Crazy the Terrific, is struggling with this latest story. He finds help
in the most unlikely of places: a flower named Lily who also loves to
write. As their friendship blooms, Crazy tells Lily the stories of two
Courts. In the first, a Royal Court, Prince Vincent tries to win over
the friendship of Princess Eile and prove his worthiness to her
guardian, The Wizard Drake, with the help of his own fairy godmother,
the magical dancer Gabe. In the second, a
Court of Law, The Highwayman, a Johnny Cash impersonator, is being
followed by a suspicious evil businessman named Jonathan. He seeks the
help of Kurt, Attorney-at-Law, but when Jonathan bursts onto the scene
even more evil than could be imagined... what's a musician to do??
Worlds and plots collide in this story of stories, as Lily the flower
tries to help Crazy finish his masterpiece. Can the seeds of creativity
take root to solve all of the problems? Will all the characters find a
way to be the best of buds? Are there this many flower puns in the
actual play??? THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY TO FIND OUT!!!

Founded in early 2001, Nicu’s Spoon is dedicated to producing socially
reflective theatre that presents new ideas, challenges stereotypes, and
touches the heart in an unexpected way. We are the central theater group
in New York City who acts as a home for all - differing colors,
abilities, ages, genders - we do not specialize in ‘the sight impaired’
or ‘the hard of hearing’ or ‘people of color’ - we are the only company
which from day one has been a home for all artists - many may now join
us or use us as a model but we are the central home base. We celebrate
collaboration in developing productions that are pertinent for today’s
global, diverse and rapidly changing world. New York City is full of
people of different ethnicities and abilities; on the move and unheard.
We give voice to those who are very much a part of our world, but whose
stories often go untold. We are committed to involving the spectrum of
diverse and multi-abled voices in play selection, programs &
internships, our artistic, production and volunteer staffs, and in our
audience.
We are a leader in working with all colors, ages,
genders, abilities and ethnicities in NYC. Each play involves the
rainbow we see around us on the streets of NYC. We see only
possibilities. We change the world, one play at a time…
