300mg Lavender for exhaustion. 500mg Kava Kava for anxiety. Stagger haphazardly follows Walt Whitman into an uncertain sexual underworld while memories of his best friend, Card, cling to him like a Lyme-carrying tick. Pills, bugs, and sexuality collide like poetry.

Noir- Fringe Festival 2011

Right or wrong, what does it matter? Only the movies are black and white.

Four actors, without the benefit of any set or props, 
create an entire 75 minute film noir.
It even complies with all the standards 
and practices of The Hays Code!

"Goodbye New York, Goodbye Heart" at HERE Arts Center


Just started reherasal for a new play by Australian playwright Lally Katz and directed by Oliver Butler. The show runs at HERE Arts Center (145 6th Avenue) from December 1st through December 21st. Call 212-352-3101 for additional ticket information. Here's a brief teaser...more to come:
Caroline, a real live young woman, falls for a suicidal prophet who lives in a virtual simulacrum of New York that’s about to come crashing down like a house of cards. Can she go Orpheus one better and write her own happy ending? Or will she get stuck in a fragile virtual world with the rest of the seekers of the impossible?




The Diary of Anne Frank


Next up... I am looking forward to performing the role of Otto Frank in a production of "The Diary of Anne Frank" at the Riverside Theatre in Iowa City, Iowa. We will be using the newly adapted script by Wendy Kesselman (it ran in NYC in 1997).
Performances run from October 15th through November 8th.
