SEP 27, 2010 – Dramatists Guild Fellowship begins

Sep 27, 2010 – Dramatists Guild Fellowship begins!
I’ve been selected to be a 2010-2011 Jonathan Larson Fellow at the Dramatists Guild!  The Larson Fellowship is a yearlong workshop for musical theatre writers and playwrights, led by Lynn Ahrens & Stephen Flaherty (Tony-winning creators of RAGTIME, ONCE ON THIS ISLAND and many other shows), Janet Neipiris and Susan Miller.  I’ve got several shows in the works, and I’m looking forward to working on them, meeting potential new collaborators, and learning from the best of the best in this room!  Can’t wait to begin!
