When I moved back to Dallas in 1989, I helped found Playwrights’ Project, a group dedicated to new voices in theater in the Southwest. We had a successful 7-year run, during which I wrote five plays and had numerous readings. 

In 1995, my play, “Everything, But,” was published by Dialogus and given a workshop production at the Tamarind Theater in Hollywood.  

Listed below are my plays. If you’d like to read them, just ask.

Sketch Comedy

“The Oldest Living Member of the Russell Crowe Fan Club Tells All” – One act, one character.

I cowrote and directed this piece with “Saturday Night Live” veteran, Melanie Hutsell, who performed as the character, Pauline. Actors/writers who shared the stage that night included Sarah Silverman (“Jesus is Magic”) and Jill Soloway (“Six Feet Under”). Audience members included veterans from SNL, Mad TV and all the main studios in Hollywood.
