New Years News

My new play “The Dark Rider” will have a reading at Artists Repertory Theatre during the Fertile Ground Festival.  Tuesday night Jan. 26 at 7:30 pm.  Admission is free.  It is directed by Tobias Anderson and stars Dave Bodin and Todd Van Voris.  Come if you can. I am also directing a reading of a new play by Ron Lee called “Under the Yew Tree” which will be at Lakewood Theatre in Lake Oswego on Sunday Jan. 24 at 2 pm.  Admission for that one is $10.  I hope to see you at one or both.

I wanted to make sure everyone knows that my next writing class is coming up in February.  If you’re interested or know someone who might be, here’s the info:
