What are you working on right now?
A (very) free adaptation of Schiller's play Maria Stuard, and Darwon'd Challenge, a satirical play about a young Charles Darwin landing on the set of a reality show that misinterprets his ideas (this last is a Sloan Commission from Ensemble Studio Theatre).
Did you publish a book this year? This are a bit different for me as a playwright, but my play 1001 will premiere at the Denver Center Theater, with subsequent productions with The Contemporary American Theater Festival (WV) and P73 Productions (NY).
