Daniel Doss and I had a great time at the reading of our new musical, “Wild and Willful Women,” as part of the TRU Voices Musical Reading Series in New York City! We had a fantastic cast and a very appreciative audience.

Here’s the  link to Broadway World’s release about the  evening.

Martin Tanner Productions is presenting my play, Caldwell’s Bomb, as part of the Dramatists Guild of America’s Friday Night Footlights Reading Series.

Herman Johansen is flying in from LA to direct the reading, and he assures me that we’ll have an excellent cast in place. So, if you’re in New York on March 1, please join us. Whether you can be there or not, please tell your friends in New York City about the reading. It’s FREE, and it’s right in the heart of the action on Times Square.
