Play to be Produced in St. Louis

labute-logo-officialMy play The Elephant in the Room was named a finalist in the first annual Labute New Theater Festival, started by the St. Louis Actors’ Studio in St. Louis, Missouri. I’ll post more details here as I learn them, but the play will be produced as part of the festival in July 2013, at the Gaslight Theater in St. Louis.

I’m hoping to be able to travel to see it, but I’m actually in rehearsal for another show that we were going to do a work-in-progress showing of in late July, so it will depend on the timing. But either way, I’m excited to have the play be part of this new festival.
