News and Updates

If you're in New York City this week, come check out my award-winning play LOSING SLEEP which is opening Off-Off Broadway, produced by the American Theatre of Actors . I've enjoyed working with the theatre and the director Michael Bordwell , and I'm excited to see the results. Swing on over to the Facebook Group for photos, cast info, and more. Show opens Wednesday, August 26, 2009 at ATA's Sargent Theatre - 314 West 54th Street (between 8th and 9th Aves). For tickets, please call (212) 581-3044.

I'm very glad to announce that my play PARADISE KEY will have a reading today in Columbia, SC, at the amazing Trustus Theatre . PARADISE KEY was selected as the winner of the 2010 Trustus Playwrights Festival, a nation-wide competition that receives hundreds of entries each year. Some notable past winners of this contest include David Lindsay-Abaire, Stephen Belber, Sarah Hammond, and John Tuttle. This reading is the first step in a year-long development process that will culminate in a full production next August as part of the theatre's 25th anniversary season.

I'm thrilled to finally be presenting a staged reading of my new-play-in-development, Homo apocalyptus , here in Key West, FL. The reading will take place on Thursday, August 6, 2009, at 7:00 PM, at the old Key West Armory, the home of The Studios of Key West , which has been our generous host for a development residency this summer. This reading is the result of a tremendous amount of effort during this residency, but it also means that summer is drawing to a close, and my days in Key West are soon to end. (Hopefully I'll make it out, before the Zombies arrive...) UPDATE: Here's an interview I had with Eric Holowacz, the gracious and hospitable Director of TSKW.
