The E-Sylum: Volume 7, Number 42, October 17, 2004, Article 16 JOE BOLING'S SHOW RETURNS E-Sylum subscriber, ANA Chief Judge, numismatist and all-around nice guy Joe Boling will be on stage for a benefit performance of his one-man show, "What Is It Like To Be Joe Boling?" in Seattle, WA: "It's the return of Joe Boling! To help raise rent money for Theatre Babylon, Mr. Boling has agreed to revive his show for a one-night only performance at the Union Garage. Performance is Friday, October 22 at 8:00 p.m. Tickets are $12 in advance and $15 at the door." "The man who sees over 300 theatrical shows each year is back- only this time he's the one performing. A hit at the 2003 Fringe Festival, "What Is It Like To Be Joe Boling?" is a solo show about a local theatre legend. To help raise rent money for Theatre Babylon, Mr. Boling has agreed to revive his show for a one-night only performance at the Union Garage. Boling, an obsessive theatre attendee, internationally known numismatist (coin collector, that is), and self-appointed "do a good turn daily" community service agent, spent 13 weeks chronicling his daily activities in a diary. From this diary, he created this highly original solo show. This is not an evening of grandstand acting or fiery theatrics. It's an evening with a man who is not afraid to be himself. Created in 2003 in Susy Schneider's Original Works class, Joe Boling was inspired to write this piece when a fellow student asked "What is it like to be Joe Boling, to live in your skin and do all the things that you do?"
