This is the illegal postcard for the reading upcoming of my play "Anatomy of an Anarchist". Illegal because the oncampus theatre company seems to have strange ideas about posters. I'd be really happy if a playwright took the iniative to do some publicity. Especially free publicity for the theatre company. Whatevs. Damage control on route, things are fine. Just annoying really.

Any case, those who are in this area, feel free to head over to Downstage Theater to view a staged reading of "Anatomy of an Anarchist" on November 29 at 7:30.

One thing about graduate school is that it rarely leaves time for anything else. That excuse set aside for the moment, I am a heinous individual for leaving this alone for so long.
Since the last post, here is the rundown of what has happened:
I saw a show in NY that is a little comedy show called "Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind" by a group called the neo-futurists. It is a fun fast paced show where thirty two minute plays are performed in an hour. Very goofily. I highly recommend it.
I took part in the 24 hour play festival here at SLC, wherein I was a director. Many people came up to me and said that my play was the best one of the night, so go me. It was a good time, and reminded me that directing is fun.
I've written four plays since I've been here.
The show that I am acting in, "The Authentick Relations of Dutch..." (it's a very long title) is going up this week, and it has been an enlightening experience, showing me new ways to look at creating theatre.

It has been an adjustment being back at school. Being around people who have a vastly different maturity level (read undergrads) has been harrowing at times. I miss, in some senses, the days of being a professional, but I was a professional in something I didn't want to do.

Okay, so, that's that, and I will try to keep things here a little more up to date.
Much love,
Me.
