WITH AND WITHOUT
I've been running workshops as a playwright-in-residence at a small theatre in Westchester called Blueberry Pond. (When I say small, I mean 49 seats.) They've done me the honor of asking me to direct a revised version of my play, With and Without, there.
And I've been having a ball. It helps that I have a really solid cast. I'm particularly pleased to be working again with Michelle Best, who did such a good job a couple of months ago in Bluff at the 78th Street Theatre Lab. In fact, she's playing a part that two other members of the Bluff cast have also played (Kristine Niven originated the part in its workshop near Lake Placid, and Sarah Yorra played it in Philadelphia a few years ago).
As it happens, the day after the show opens, I'm scheduled to head for the O'Neill Center to teach as part of the national Theatre Institute's summer program, so I'll only get a chance to see the show in front of an audience twice -- at an invited dress on Thursday and opening night Friday. I'd be delighted to see any of my friends at either of these performances. Drop me a line at DGSweet@aol.com if you think you can come.
