One of the joys of living in New York City is uncovering all the countless, interwoven communities that make up the beautiful, complicated whole. For instance, having a kid in public school means I'm part of that community, and this year I'm lucky enough to be inivted to share at the annual "Writers' Night" fundraiser. This is real honor because this event features some truly spectacular writers - novelists, poets, librettists - and also highlights the creative work of some teachers whose talents overflow well beyond school hours. I plan on sharing something brand new, and hopefully I can even rope in a professional actor I know to help me read it. Tickets are free, food and drink are not. Donations accepted.

A new short play I wrote is being presented by The Drawing Board as part of a collection of work they've developed. My offering is called THE END OF THE WORLD WILL COME WHILE I'M IN LINE. It's an existential snapshot of my own personal of hell-on-earth: the line at Trader Joe's on a Sunday night. WHEN: Monday, October 5, 2015 at 7:00 PM WHERE: The Players' Club - NYC ( 16 Gramercy Park South )

I'm very excited to be one of the five playwrights in this weekend's 24-Hour PlayFest at Trustus Theatre in Columbia, SC. I'll be participating virtually from here in NYC, but I'm glad to be working with such talented directors, actors, and fellow writers. WHEN: Sunday, August 24, at 8:00 PM WHERE: Trustus Theatre ( 520 Lady St, Columbia, SC 29201 )
