Yesterday, my historical farce “Philosophus” closed at Alleyway Theatre of Buffalo, New York! What a wonderful production – expertly directed by Neal Radice (assisted by Samantha Marchant), gorgeously costumed by Joyce Stilson and Todd Warfield, and perfectly acted by Chris J. Handley, James Cichocki, Christopher Standart, Emily Yancey, and Andrew Zuccari. I couldn’t have possibly asked for or dreamed of a better world premiere for this play.

“Philosophus” was Alleyway Theatre’s 148th production – one of many world premieres produced by this great theatre. It is truly rare to find such a great theater devoting itself (riskily) solely to new work, and it is an honor my work was chosen by them. Many thanks goes to Neal Radice for his trust and his guidance (he recommended some tweaks and tightening to the script that were enacted halfway through the play’s run).

Enjoy this wonderful montage of photos… the costumes alone speak a thousand words!
