Incident at Our Lady of Perpetual Help/ Director

A joy to work with Carol and Peter Max at Curtain Call Theatre and open this heartfelt comedy. We run through May 7, 2023.

The Mighty Lambs/ Writer

So excited to announce readings of my new play. Produced by Round the Bend Theatre at the Bridge Street Theatre, Catskill NY July 9 and 10, 2022, 7:30pm

The Mighty Lambs embraces the citizens of Ballinalee, County Longford, as they fight to save their beloved pub. The Lamb is slated for demolition by a Village Council intent on replacing a piece of Irish history with a theme park version. But the patrons of The Lamb will only succeed if they can reconcile broken relationships and find a way to work together.

 

Camping with Henry and Tom/ Actor

Directed by my brilliant wife, Patti, Camping with Henry and Tom with Theatre Voices.

Theater Voices will present a staged reading of this political satire, directed by Patricia Bunce. Postponed until June at 8pm Friday June 10, 3 & 8pm Saturday June 11 and 3pm Sunday June 12, 2022 at Steamer No. 10 Theatre, 500 Western Avenue, Albany. Admission is free.

Red Maple/ Writer

Two productions and counting! We premiered at Capital Repertory Theatre in Albany NY. We ran to full houses, rave reviews and wonderful feedback. By the third week you couldn’t get a ticket if you wanted. Since then, The Players at the Barker Playhouse in Providence RI, produced a wonderful live streamed production of the show. We’ll see what happens next. I’ve been approached by a few theaters asking for a perusal copy of the script. I’m reaching out to others. I’ll keep you all updated. Thank you Maggie Cahill, Margaret Hall, everyone at Proctors and Cap Rep and our amazing cast and crew! And thank you to Jeff and Bonnie Sullivan and everyone at the Barker!
