Mayor Pro Tem up for a Vote
Just don’t want to lose site of this play. I think it’s good and has potential in general, but it’s currently in consideration for a couple of things: A theater in Austin is keeping it on their short list for consideration for their next season (no idea what the chances are) It was just...

Reading: Landowners play at Hyde Park Theatre in August
Save the date (August 31st) for a reading of a new play, tentatively titled THE LANDOWNERS, at Hyde Park Theatre on Monday, August 31st. It’ll feature some of Austin’s best actors and should be a real good time. We’d love to hear what you think. There’s a lowkey Facebook event HERE if you want...

Astronomical Blasts off on April 30
I mentioned this a while back, but I’ve got a short play in this festival which opens in less than two weeks. Rehearsals are going well, and I’ve got a bang-up cast and director (whom I’ve worked with several times). These shows are always fun and each play is over pretty quickly, so there’s...

ScriptWorks Forever!
ScriptWorks just had their best Amplify Austin year to date. I take particular pride in this because I organized and ran the whole operation with a brand new member profile and “6-line masterpiece” every 90 minutes over a 24-hour period. At the time of this writing, we were agonizingly close to our fundraising goal....

The Schlub and the Sonata to Debut this Spring
The short play I wrote as part of the ScriptWorks Weekend Fling this fall will be part of the Out of Ink production at Hyde Park Theatre from April 30th to May 9th. I’m happy about this one. It’s more serious than many I write, and touches on elements of grief (while still having...

A Friendly Lady Goes on Tour
I’m happy to say that The Marsh Theatre in San Francisco has invited me back to perform my short piece A Friendly Lady in January. And then I’ll do it at FronteraFest in Austin in February. So really moving and shaking with this thing. I’ve been trying to decide whether to do a projected...
