A long time between things, I know. I have a new schedule at a college where I am teaching English and they are really running me down and out. Good thing is that I have been able to afford a laptop/notebook. This means that I can finally finish a lot of projects that I have left in the raw in my notes. One of them is a play...
Yeah, I know. Who watches plays anymore unless they are on Broadway and have witches or wizards in them? Well, I did when I was in school (lunch hour at McMaster University was a gift to anyone interested in the art - and a great place to finish your lunch!), and the habit bit hard. I had one play performed and another on the line (was told it would be too costly to perform - at least I was ambitious). And now there is this one.
It is a very short piece called "Caught" and it deals with a power dynamic between a teaching assistant and a student. A simple idea that I have not seen on stage before and it deserves some airing. I am on my third draft and I will see if a local theatre is interested in putting it on.
Stay tuned!
