My play with original country songs, JULE'S SONG, joins O'Neill Festival of New Works, October 6 and 14

Please join us for one (or both) upcoming workshop readings of my new play, JULE'S SONG, presented as part of the O'Neill Festival of New Works

 

Sunday, October 6 at 2:00 pm and Monday, October 14 at 2:00 pm.

 

 

 Inspired by the creative community of Provincetown and the comaraderie of other playwrights, Eugene O’Neill changed the American theater with work that began on the Outer Cape.  More than 100 years later, I'm honored to be part of another group of playwrights who have found inspiration with each other and in the marvelous mix that is still Provincetown.  Four Outer Cape playwrights will workshop four new full length plays.  Each play will be presented as a staged reading the first weekend, playwrights will revise their plays during the week based on audience feedback, and new versions will be presented as staged readings the second weekend.

Yule for Fuel at WHAT

Thanks to everyone who made Yule for Fuel at the Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater such a huge success.  Two shows, December 9 and 16, were full of words and music that made us grateful for our wonderfully creative community.  Special thanks to Stephen Russell who made it all happen!

All the cast on December 16, 2023
