Tribes Gallery
Nov 19th: Here I am with the wonderful Steve Cannon at Tribes Gallery in the LES.. My gig was such an amazing success.
The Press Release:
WINTER
A one-act two-character play about an American woman living in her new home in Wellington, New Zealand. Missing her daughter and everything she knows she takes walks by the sea and retells her experiences to her partner, a New Zealand national who has to sort out if he wants her to stay or to go. With Elizabeth Grey, Tadhg O’Mordha & Marilyn Beck.
MARLEY & RACHEL
A ten-minute play about two homeless people looking for spare change and a kind word moments before and after 9/11. With Dawn D’Arcy, Sean St. John. & Marilyn Beck.
It was a wonderful evening of what theatre is about: for me it’s nothing without the actors and the audience to make the words on the page come alive. Such a cliche way to say how wonderful and lovely it is to experience the whole process: to write, to have a space to present it, to have actors give their time and to have an audience to come AND stay after and give comments. Some comments: fantastic, wonderful, naughty, confusing, ambiguous. In particular, the reaction of gender to Winter was most fascinating....I didn’t write a woman’s play, but the men and women had opposite reactions to WINTER, which pleases me.
