I had a wonderful reading of the latest draft of “This Is Crazy” while in New York City casting the World Premiere production of “Circle Forward.” HUGE thanks to Dominic, Helen, Eilis, Jason, and Brooke as they jumped into this new comedy! And I’m grateful for the lovely rehearsal rooms at Spaces@520 for the air-conditioned, peaceful facilities.

Readings like these are SO helpful as I continue to refine and deepen this play. I’m grateful to these talented actors, and our friends who showed up to hear it and support new work!

UPDATE: This went GREAT! Big thanks to all who showed up and supported new work! It's greatly appreciated. And a big thanks to my wonderfully patient director Gabby Griego and my talented cast.

So excited about the upcoming FREE reading of the latest draft of my new play "The Escape Thingy" at Moving Arts theater company in Los Angeles on Saturday May 19 at 11:00 a.m. Did I mention that it's FREE? Just click here to let us know you're coming but no need to pay anything because it's definitely FREE!

Directed by Gabrieal Griego, the reading will be held at Harmony Toluca Lake, 4301 Cahuenga Blvd. Starts promptly at 11 a.m. Here's the synopsis: Two very different couples meet in an "Escape Room" game night, each needing very different types of escape. The clock is literally ticking as they attempt to solve the puzzles, decide what reality to believe, and weigh the risks of unlocking the door to the dangerous world outside.

The wonderful cast includes Mark L. Taylor, Penny Peyser, Victoria Ortiz, Lizzie Zerebko, and Taylor Jackson Ross. Please come and judge my work right to my face, for FREE!
