Just a quick note to say Safe and Sound got accepted and will be performed April 11–12 (probably at 7:30 and at the Provo Theatre Company as usual). Auditions will be next week, March 11–12, and there'll be information on that on the website soon. (Alchemy didn't ...
Yet another Snowstorm post. :) (But it's the last one.) We had the encore performance of "Eccentricities" tonight, and it went quite well, even though the place wasn't completely sold out. At the end they tallied all the audience votes for the four performances, and to my ...
I should stop waiting till the end of the day to blog. :) This'll be short -- all I've got to say is that because last night and tonight the show ("Eccentricities," which includes my play Snowstorm) was completely sold out, they've extended the run to include an encore ...
My play Snowstorm opened tonight. With my last play I went to several of the rehearsals and runthroughs, so I had a fairly good idea walking into the premiere how the show would go. Not so this time. I could've gone to both the rehearsals and the runthroughs, yes, ...

I've started trying to keep up better with my blog reading (and yes, I'll be weeding down the list of feeds I'm subscribed to so it'll be manageable), and as a result, I've come across some goodies to share. First, today's Dilbert:...
This morning I realized that most of my favorite musicals are adaptations of classic literature -- Jane Eyre, Secret Garden, Les Mis, The Sound of Music, The Scarlet Pimpernel, Wicked, Jekyll and Hyde, and Phantom of the Opera, for example. I'd never looked at it that way before. ...
As I mentioned a few days ago, my play Candle in the Darkness premiered this past weekend. I recorded the first night with my digital camera and have uploaded the video to Google for your perusal. But first a few things. The sound isn't that great, and in a ...
I announced this before but figured it wouldn't be a bad idea to mention it again. The New Play Project has accepted one of my plays, Candle in the Darkness, as part of their fall religious plays festival (which is called Thorns & Thistles). My play is ...
