Westside Eclectic Level 1 Press Release
What does a fortune five hundred CEO, a cast member of "The Office", and a Los Angeles Laker have in common other than a winning attitude? They're all able to work well within a cohesive group, they're able to be present and perform well in the moment and they're able to execute well without thinking. Many want to know, can these skills be learned? Well, you can find a school for just about everything in Los Angeles - including improvisation. Not more than three blocks from the pacific ocean in sunny Santa Monica sits the Westside Eclectic, a comedy and improv training facility that is open to every man woman and child who is willing to learn. Most everyone who knows anything about show business knows that there are plenty of improv schools throughout the Los Angeles area. Westside Eclectic, while it is the stomping grounds for many a talented actor, is not strictly limited to the "headshots and agents" crowd. Westside Eclectic is open to anyone and everyone who wants to learn the basics of improvisational technique. Westside Eclectic does borrow, though, and mix, some of the styles and even some of the teachers from its Hollywood counterparts.
"The Westside Eclectic takes the best parts of the other theaters around town and combines them into a hearty improv stew. Totally recommended!" says one satisfied student, Johnathon Zabel. If the first installment of Westside Eclectic's improv teaching suits the students, they can quickly move on to the next level and rise through all six levels, possibly even getting selected to perform on one of the school's house teams. Although the classes are not necessarily restricted to seasoned performers, people who take the class will get a chance to show-case their talents at the end of the six weeks, according to Westside Eclectic General Manager Lloyd Ahlquist. "Our Level 1 classes are a great value and includes a final performance here at the theater," says Ahlquist. There are other advantages as well. "Our students get in free to all shows here at the theater and we bolster some of the greatest teachers that LA has to offer," says Ahlquist.
For anyone who is interested, there is a level one class starting later this month, on 3/21/09, goes through to 5/2/2009 and costs $285 and includes a student showcase.
There is also a Thursday evening one that starts on March 19, and goes through April 30.
If anyone wants to book a show, they can contact Lloyd Ahlquist directly by calling (310) 451-0850, or by going to the main web site at www.westsideeclectic.com.

Sex Relationships and Sometimes Love
Let me ask you a question: are you thinking about sex right now? If you are, don't worry about it, we all are. Let's face it, sex is a major part of life.
If only there was a way to talk about sex, the emotions surrounding sex, the consequences of sex, and who we really want to have sex with, as adults, in a close, intimate yet light-hearted. It would be great to have some vodka first.. It would also be great to be able to do all of these things, while watching some of Los Angeles' hottest actors ply their trade.
Well, actually, there's a way to do all of this in one night. By attending the highly praised, award-winning play "Sex, Relationships and Sometimes Love" written by playwright Joelle Arqueros, you can become part of a close-knit audience as actors confess everything from their freshly ruffled sheets, or at a bar as if you were their favorite bartender, or at a strip club, as if you were the stripper they told things they couldn't tell their wife.
You can watch "Sex, Relationships and Sometimes Love" every Sunday at the "Actor's Playpen" every Sunday at 6 pm, 7:30 pm and 9pm. at 1514 Gardner Street, right before Los Angeles becomes West Hollywood and where some of the finest actors in town work the night away.
Tickets are $12, or for $15 it's all you can drink. For more information visit http://sexrelationshipsandsometimeslove.com and let's talk about sex baby!

Sex Relationships and Sometimes Love
Let the confessions begin. What better way to spend a weekend night than to witness people confessing and baring their souls on the stages of Los Angeles. LA’s hottest actors bearing all. It’s not just a sex show, but is an actual real testament to the rich texture of the underworld of not only LA acting, but also of what sex can do to people and what lies underneath.
Not only is it funny with humourous characters such as Orgasm Man and black wonderwomen, but there are heartfelt confessions about yearning, confessions that made never made the ears of the people they were confressing about, sexret lovers, wanton lovers, tragedy, hope, all to do with the tricky liasons that know no class boundaries.
Arqeurros, a sexy underewear baroness herself, come se e her deft attention to detail and witness to the human soul. Hopes and dreams will fly and you will get an hour long confessional into the midns and souls of people who are out there in every day life all over the country. Their hopes their deramss and their love. Arquerros has a unique view and insight into the human heart and only this play can really help you touch and feel and see, as Arquerros would put. Her book is full of firy monologues and has been helping actors and giving them something to grab onto for years now so come view and watch and enjoy Sex relationships and Cometimes love in the Actor’s Playpen in the heart of the colorful West Holllywood.
Have you ever been out to a bar or in the subway or the metro system or walking on campus, and you just couldn't help but wonder what the people in front of your or behind you were thinking. What are their deepest darkest secrets and how do they feel about things in their life? What makes them the way they are, and how do they think?
What do they know and what do they not know. What is their position on other subjects, versus others. What sets them apart? What sets them off.
Joelle's play is a bed time confessional of the most intimate kind, where we get to see people from all walks of life, by some of Hollywood's finest and upcoming and promising actors give their confessionals.
This is absolutely a must see. Actors, comfortable with themselves bare all in their robes and under shorts, bar time confessionals. Empty bar confessionals, strip club professoinal, this is a declisious and delicate way for people to get comfortable with others and see how it is.
There's a place in West Hollywood where gauranteed to see beautiful actresses confess all from the sheets of their own bed? It's a bed time confessional of everyone's favorite characters.
Where can you see wounded men confess all from the intimacy of a friendly bar? Is there actually a place where we can hear players and ladies men and bona fide "players" confess their deepest and darkest insecurities? The answer is yes, and the location is the Actor's Playpen, which is hosting the production "Sex and Relationships and Sometimes Love".
If you're a fan of the theatre, and you've been to theatre in LA, you're weary of the all too long show with entire acts that get off on the wrong foot and never quite correct themselves. The beauty of Joelle Arquerros' "Sex, Relationships and Sometimes Love" is that it's a collection of vignettes, small, refreshing confessionals from an array of charcters, some of whom we've met before, and others we've always wanted to meet, but not known how to approach them.
It's all there in Arquerros' lively, show which definitely qualifies as a night out on the town. It's also a great "date play", that will give couples plenty to talk about on their way home.
"Sex, Relationships and Sometimes Love" can also make the perfect pre night show for a close group of friends, as it touches on issues that just about everyone has experienced, they will continue to experience as the night goes on.
Also, you will meet vibrant characters in this show you are guaranteed not to meet anywhere else, such as Orgasm Man and Black Wonderwoman. So, come dance and be merry and be a part of this array of lively, sexy confessionals and party with us in West Hollywood.
