UPCOMING
WRITING: A new play written by David, Sisters of the Eternal Knot, will be workshopped as part of the The Artful Conspirators' Open Rehearsal Series in June. The public portion of the ORS will be on Thursday, June 20 at 7pm in the rehearsal studios of ART/NY Midtown.  

DIRECTING: Alice Unraveled, a new rock musical by the talented composer Kelly Izzo, will be performed in a staged reading in July as part of the New York Musical Festival.  Using characters from Lewis Carroll’s classic novel in an contemporary adolescent world, Alice is a teenage girl struggling with the post-traumatic stress. Alice is pulled “down the rabbit hole” and into a nightmarish world in which she cannot separate reality from memory, memory from a dream. Will she ever regain her voice?
Performances: Tuesday, July 9 at 3pm and 7pm; Saturday, July 13 at 4:30pm at the Studio Theatre on Theatre Row. Tickets.

RECENT

DIRECTING: The Underpants by Steve Martin, adapted from Carl Sternheim. Produced by the BU Players at the Alvina Krause Theatre (home of the Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble) in downtown Bloomsburg, PA. April 17-21, 2013.
DIRECTING: David directed the staged reading of On The Ceiling by Nigel Planer for Amphibian Stage Productions in January 2013. Lapo and Loti, two plasterers, begin work (on history's most famous ceiling) for their absentee boss Michelangelo...and then comedy ensues. It's a fresco fiasco.
WRITING: UglyRhino Productions commissioned David to write a 10-minute play (Truth, Dare, Kiss, Kill or Marry) for their January installment of TinyRhino, "the theatrical drinking game." David was given five dramatic elements to incorporate into his play; when those occurred during the performance, the audience had to drink.
WINNING: David's Calgary Mad Armadillos were the Coast to Coast League champion during the 2012-13 season.
