CURRENT AND UPCOMING SHOWS AND SCRIPTS! (Scroll for all the info!)

I'm directing Ira Levin's classic Broadway comedy/thriller, DEATHTRAP, to open the 2023-2024 season at the Players' Ring in Portsmouth, NH. we've assembled a great cast featuring John Budzyna as Sidney, Tommy Carnes as Clifford, Sally Nutt as Myra, Trish Aponte as Helga and Ed Simeone as Porter. Tickets are now on sale and are available HERE.

My brand new play, THE STANDS, was staged at the Players' Ring in Portsmouth from May 26 through June 11, 2023, to significant acclaim. Five parents, and one grandparent, of Little Leaguers attend the first practice and final game of the summer to oversee their kids as they compete. Over the course of the play, we learn a great deal about these people as they slowly reveal a frightening moment that happens to them on the last day of the season. Featuring a brilliant cast of actors, including Ashley Risteen, Jocelyn Duford, Trish Aponte, Tara Johns, Kate Gilbert and David Sullian, plans are under way to move this production to the Firehouse in Newburyport in the spring of 2024!

My new play, MOONGLOW, which is based on Ray Greeley, a musician and teacher in the Lowell, MA area in the sixties, completed two extremely successful runs, first at the Players' Ring Theatre in downtown Portsmouth, NH, at Prescott Park, and then at the Firehouse Center in Newburyport in October. The play featured John Budzyna, Kimberly Holliday, Tom Hickey, Ashley Risteen, Kerry Quinn and Ava Valianti. Lots of laughs, some romance, and even a few things you might want to think about. Click HERE for audience reaction, and further info about the play.

TRICK OR TREAT completed a successful seven-week run off-Broadway at 59E59 Theaters. The show featured Gordon Clapp, Emmy Winner from NYPD BLUE and Tony nominee from GLENGARRY GLEN ROSS. It was directed by Carol Dunne, produced in conjunction with Northern Stage. Read the Broadway World review HERE. Many more review quotes are available on the TRICK OR TREAT web page, located HERE.

My novel, A BANG BANG PLAY, is now available on Amazon. I call it a thriller, but that's up for debate. There is blood, and the cover is killer. A number of excellent customer reviews, thus far!
