I'm Writing Again!

After directing Antwone Fisher: A Play at UCLA, I needed to rest.  Writing and directing a play and rehearsing to get the bet results is difficult, but rewarding.  I needed a little break.  Now, I am refreshed and on to my next writing project.  The words are flowing, the scenes are vivid and interesting.  I love this work.
To keep me in my writing space, I have lots of interesting things to occupy my mind when I am taking breaks.  It's also when I return emails and make phone calls.  The rule is that I can't leave the room!  So far, so great.

Final Week of the play

This if the final week of Antwone Fisher: a play at UCLA.  The shows have been outstanding.  The acting is incredible.  I couldn't be happier.  Today, I learned that Saturday is sold out for both shows and Wednesday only has twelve tickets left.  The great thing about this production is that with a multi-racial class, it shows that the story is a universal story that isn't unique to men or women, boys or girls.  If you are in the Los Angeles area, make a point of seeing the show.  You will be happy you did.

Grateful

I am so grateful for the professionalism that the actors of Antwone Fisher: a play display each night.  The energy was fantastic tonight.  I was so happy to see my neighbors out supporting me yet again. It's an honor to have them.

Opening night of the play

I can't even begin to express how happy I am with the opening night of Antwone Fisher: a play. The actors were outstanding, the set was beautiful, the costumes were impressive.  It went off without a hitch.  All I had to do was sit back and watch.  The weeks of rehearsals were all worth it.  For those of you who come out, you are in for a treat.
