Oh. My. Lord. Less of the adaptation/rewrite/re-imagining/revival machine. 95% of the time it's pure profit driven nostalgia-bait and it drives me NUTS. #newplay

Oh, man. Not enough characters in the world. I am feeling inspired this week by: Maria Irene Fornes, Kaveh Akbar, Mfoniso Udofia, EM Lewis, Virginia Grise, Gabriella Tovar-Borghini, Brandi Carlile, my dad, and the moon. Among others. #Newplay

Especially when working in magical realism, I like to think of creating utopic representation. Unless the representation is being specifically excavated by the work, why can't the worlds we create be better than the one we live in? Imagining a just future provides the blueprints for one #newplay
