I once visited a small, family circus that had, among other things, a giant, inflated slide in the shape of the Titanic.

Pretty quiet here...

I guess I'll just thank a couple of theatres that recently staged my plays..

Shaunavon's Darkhorse Theatre in Sk, Canada, Fountain Community Theatre, Colorado, and Sand County Players in Wisconsin!

Thank you for choosing my work to represent your theaters!

The vitriol aimed at a murdered man is unacceptable. Perhaps he was a cruel or greedy person in life, I didn't know him, but in any event, he ws a son, a father, a husband, a friend... in other words, a person.

Whatever our views on his job, let's value all human life if we claim moral superiority.
