Please join me for the final “Says You!” tapings for live audiences in Seattle, WA on Thursday Sept 8 and San Francisco, CA on Saturday Sept 10!

This NPR comedy/trivia show has been beloved for 25 years, and producer Laura Sher has arranged these final two tapings in two of the cities that have loved us best. I’m honored to be sharing the stage with the Says You! All-Stars, including Carolyn Faye Fox, Murray Horwitz, Barry Nolan, Joyce Kulhawik, and Tony Kahn!

Join me for a free Salon event featuring my one-act radio play “90024: Westwood – “ALL INFORMATION HEREIN IS CLASSIFIED” commissioned by Antaeus Theatre Company as part of their inaugural Zip Code Plays series!

On April 17 at 7:00 pm Pacific time (USA), there will be a FREE live panel discussion (over Zoom) co-presented by Antaeus Theatre Company & The Westwood Village Improvement Association.

We’ll begin the event by listening to the 30-minute play, which will be followed by a discussion with me and Director Carolyn Ratteray, Artistic Director Kitty Swink, and Executive Director of the Westwood Village Improvement Association, Andrew Thomas. Together, we’ll delve into the creative process behind the play, as we learn more about the local landscape and community in Westwood.

Please register HERE for this FREE webinar today !

And if you can’t make it, please join the 40,000 others who have taken a few moments to listen HERE to the radio play — it’s also FREE! Here’s a synopsis: Fresh from participating in her first street protests, 80-year old Eleanor Pender McAdams seems an unlikely subject for an FBI investigation — but who really has the upper hand? This “official file” of recordings and interviews reveals the complexities of standing up for something bigger than yourself in the modern world.

UPDATE: OVER 20,000 have listened to the podcasts so far, in over 5 continents!

The Los Angeles Times called the series “Delightful… exceptional… quick and fun and surprising!”

Featured in LAist’s “Best Online Post-Election Diversions!”

Commissioned by Antaeus Theatre Company in August and recorded remotely in September, the 30-minute radio play “90024: Westwood — All Information Herein is Classified” is now available for streaming at Antaeus.org or wherever you get your podcasts.

Directed by Carolyn Ratteray and starring Dawn Didawick, Bo Foxworth, and Catia Ojeda, the play is collection of digital audio FBI files on Eleanor Pender McPherson, an alleged participant in protests in and around UCLA. The two FBI agents assigned to her surveillance learn never to underestimate an 80 year old woman.

I’m so grateful to Antaeus for selecting me to create this piece, to Jeff Gardner for mastering the audio production, and to the director and cast for bringing it to life. I hope you all take a few minutes to listen, and enjoy!

I’m thrilled to have been selected for the Antaeus Zip Code Radio Plays!

The Antaeus Theatre Company in Los Angeles chose six playwrights to create 30-minute radio plays to produce, which will be released November 30, 2020 FREE to the public online and via podcast. Each play takes place in a different zip code in L.A.

My play, “90024 Westwood: ALL INFORMATION HEREIN IS CLASSIFIED” is a collection of digital audio FBI files on Eleanor Pender McPherson, an alleged participant in protests in and around UCLA. The two FBI agents assigned to her surveillance learn never to underestimate an 80 year old woman.

The amazing Carolyn Ratteray will direct and Jeff Gardner is Audio Producer. Casting to be announced soon!

I’ll be posting again when the final product is available for you to listen to via online (or wherever you listen to podcasts.)
