Bid to Win Dinner and A Show Date With Kate In NYC

Kate is one of the celebrities who are participating in Playwrights Horizons 5th Annual Auction. You can bid to win dinner and a show with Kate (and Reid Birney), here are the details:

You may know Kate Mulgrew by the name Captain Kathryn Janeway from Star Trek: Voyager, the stereotype-defying captain of the USS Voyager. Reed Birney pops up all over town in roles that are as diverse as the planets in the solar system - most recently seen in PH’s A Small Fire. You and a guest will join these two Obie Award Winning actors for dinner at Chez Josephine and then see The Shaggs at Playwrights Horizons. Both Ms. Mulgrew and Mr. Birney have enjoyed successful and varied careers onstage and on screen, and you will have the unique opportunity to hear their stories in person. The fascinating story of The Shaggs will provide plenty of fodder for discussion, but we doubt you’ll need help keeping the conversation flowing with company that is so out-of-this-world!

Current top bid is $520.

“…They’ve lit the Voyager sets one last time before they strike ‘em! Grab the cam, and meet me on the bridge!” It’s funny the quiet reverence you experience when saying goodbye to a make believe spaceship. The show over seven years becomes a family, and the starship sets are where that family lives.

They didn’t let me keep the cat suit. I would have loved to have burned it; not so much the cat suit as the corset that was under it. But, no, they didn’t let me have that. I do, however, have an alcove. I figured, “That’s the least you can give me! Give me my alcove.” (Laughs). So I have it in my game room.

ALSO (for fellow JCers) - More proof that C7 was mindless WTF-ery on the interview.

[About Natural Law] We specifically asked the producers – Robert and I – “Now, are we going to play this? Is this going to go somewhere? Because, obviously, we’d need to carry something over from…” And they said, “No, no, no, no! Absolutely not. Don’t play any of that. Nothing’s going to happen.” [Emphasis mine]

Due to my school load, I will not be posting for about a month or and a half. Please do not think that this Tumblelog has died; but do think of it as a temporary hiatus.

However, I can be online from time to time, and I have opened the submit box.

Certainly, I could see with my own eyes that [Seven of Nine] was a va-va-va-voom and beautiful-beautiful bombshell of a girl. Sexuality was brought into Voyager, and that’s what I resented. I chose not to use sexuality. I thought that if Paramount and UPN and Rick (Berman) were being exceptionally prescient and brave, they would give a woman a shot at commanding without sex. “Can we do this without sex?” There are always other ways. So I resented that and I was hurt by the immediate, extraordinary attention given to this character. The numbers went up. And I thought, “Ah, you can’t argue with a business decision and you can’t argue with sex.” That’s just part of life, but all of that is very difficult for a woman, particularly an actress like me.
