So, are you the type of person who, at a party, makes the rounds, constantly on the move to chat, to flirt, to, well, whatever, with as many people in as short a time as possible. I’m not. I’m the type that finds a corner and hangs out there. Sometimes alone, sometimes with a few others. [...]

Must See British TV
Who should watch: fans of Stephen Moffat’s work (Coupling, Doctor Who), those interested in watching some damn fine acting, and those with an interest in science fiction of the corporate conspiracy ilk.
What to expect: Six episodes of breathtaking acting on the part of James Nesbitt as he plays the duel characters of Jekyll & Hyde, [...]
The Children of Theatre: A Manifesto
I wrote the following several years ago while in the midst of an ill-suited MFA program in Theatre Pedagogy. Looking at it now I feel slightly sad that I am no longer on an academic track because there are so many things that needed to be changed in so many theatre departments.

New Band Discovered
Great video, catchy tune:
For a flava of Bat For Lashes live, check this one out:
And another live video:
I’m definitely planning on getting their debut album in the next week or two. Yes, I could download it from Amazon.com or iTunes. But I’m feeling archaic these days and will probably hit up an actual music store [...]

Staging the Impossible
I’ve just posted a new play over on the Stage Plays Page. I’m going to be writing a series of 10 minute plays, primarily because there are way too many 10 minute play festivals and contests and most short plays suck.
