Back to Alaska

I’m delighted to announce that I’ll be returning to the Valdez Theatre Conference in Valdez, Alaska this month! My new play Before Vinson is being read there on Tuesday, June 13. If you’re not able to make it to Alaska to see it in person (it’s a bit of a commute, I know) you can see the YouTube livestreaming of the reading here, and read the current draft of the piece on NPX here.
