Life Jacket Theatre Company is offering a work-in-progress showing of its latest production, GOREY. This production provides a rare, haunting glimpse inside the hidden life of one of the most original, creative, and enigmatic artists and authors of the 20th century. Combining found text, stunning stagecraft, and inventive storytelling, this production explores Gorey’s dark imagination, his personal demons, and the heartbreaking loneliness of creative genius.
Featuring Andrew Dawson*, Dylan Riley-MacArthur, and Mark Woodard*. Writer/Director: Travis Russ. Assistant Director/Stage Manager: Jeannine Frumess*.

I'm pleased to have been cast in a two week developmental project about Edward Gorey.
We start on March 23rd with invited audience presentations on April 3rd and 4th at the 12th Street Theater.
Busy last month as I was directing two shows back to back for Artspower National Touring Theater. What a wonderful time I had working with two terrific casts.
Now they are on the road across America...safe travels to them!
