Oh, if only all of the fringe could be as rich and creamy as The Pumpkin Pie Show. A disclaimer: I've been an admirer of Clay McLeod Chapman since I had the great good fortune to see him perform the remarkable "Late Bloomer" at the 2005 H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival in Portland, OR. He's a remarkable writer and performer and my frustration with Dan Kramer's introduction to The Pumpkin Pie show is that it doesn?t feature more performance material. But anything that brings Chapman?s work to a broader audience is to be supported, and it's to Kramer?s considerable credit that he presents The Pumpkin Pie show in this tight, informative feature. Kramer's piece could easily be incorporated in any programing about contemporary theater or the arts in general. It would be at home during a weekend magazine format, but could fit comfortably throughout the day.
