What a joyous and inspiring week I had in Durango, Colorado last week! I was invited to workshop my play “Circle Forward” with a wonderful team of actors and crew, all led by the brilliant director, Pesha Rudnick. And the amazing staff who run the festival are so well-organized! I was able to make some great tweaks to my play, and I feel like it’s better than it was before. (The revised version is available on New Play Exchange here.)
The cast included Tony-nominated Enid Graham as Mia, Catia Ojeda as Lexi, Conor Sheehan as Ethan, and Siena Widen as Calista. Cindy Laudadio-Hill read stage directions, Misha Zimmerman was Stage Manager, and J’Kye Wientjes was Assistant Stage Manager. A fun, lovely, and supportive group of artists!
A big thanks to everyone in Durango for making us feel so welcome. We had the pleasure of two separate readings and both audiences had thoughtful and helpful responses.
