Dairyland




I just spent an amazingly productive week at Chautauqua Theatre Company working on a New Play Workshop of Heidi Armbruster's play DAIRYLAND. It is the first play she has written and seen on its feet. She is a rock star. Her dad flew from Wisconsin to see it. That was pretty neat.

Back in the Saddle

So, it has been ALMOST 5 years since I have written anything on this blog and just came across it again through a variety of extenuating circumstances that I won't go into right now. I have been known to say in the very recent past that I hate blogs.  But for reasons that I might slowly write about over the coming months, it has become clear to me that it might be a really good exercise for me to keep track of what I have been doing. And not just because I have a really bad memory. Even if no one reads one word. Just for the mere act of speaking up and putting it out there. Just for me. So here goes.
