I’m directing two new short plays by Gina Femia in a brunch reading series:

There will be mimosas!
Pussyfest!
I had an amazing time this month directing monologues for Pussyfest,
the extraordinary fundraiser/happening/party performance
to support Caps Lock Theatre!
Amy E. Witting, Kurt Stridinger, Brooke Ashley Eden, and Kari Bentley-Quinn
wrote for Kelli Lynn Harrison, Kelley Rae O’Donnell, Madeline Bundy,
and Kristen Krak, respectively, and it was a delight to work with all of them.
Mariah MacCarthy, Leta Tremblay and the whole Caps Lock team are terrific.
A+, would do again!

Shadow Walkers Reading
I had a wonderful time directing a reading of SHADOW WALKERS by Shaun B. Fauntleroy at Judson Memorial Church last month! This is a beautiful play, and the cast more than did it justice.
Thank you, CK Allen, Pun Bandhu, Patricia Randell, Nik Sadhnani, and Chandra Thomas!
(And Michele O’Brien knows that reading stage directions is an art!)
#GoingHomeless
I directed three episodes of this web series, created by Amy Gaipa and Judith Leora.
It’s scheduled for release early 2017, and features a plethora of terrific people. Amy, Judith, and their co-producer Tiffany Fisher-Love collected an outstanding team and it was a pleasure to be part of it! (I directed an episode featuring my dog and an episode featuring Judith’s cat, plus some of my favorite actors — what more could anyone ask?!)
Connect on Facebook and Twitter for release updates for #GoingHomeless!
(Clearly Lucy was more tired than any of the cast or the crew!)
Women In Theatre Festival
Putting up Gina Femia’s NYMadness short SHE HOLDS HER in Project Y’s WIT Festival! Very happy to have a chance to revisit this little play from last season with a new cast. Sunday June 12th, 6:30pm at Under St. Marks — it’s also a party to celebrate the start of this festival (three weeks of readings, performances, and panels, featuring a TON of terrific women theater artists).
