The Honorable Herbert Peabody

October 12, 2018

I hope you’ll come check out the premier of a very funny new one-man show, by and starring Kirk McGee, that I’ve had the pleasure of directing.

This One Night Only, One-man, One Act satire, The Honorable Herbert Peabody follows, Joe, a well-meaning tour guide at the Honorable Herbert Peabody Library and Legacy Center, as he tries to decide if he's going to ignore history, change history, or make history to ensure that his (former) hero's "#MeToo" moment doesn't become "Me, Three."

It’s been rainy and cold in NYC, so why not spend some time laughing as you’re warmed by the flames of our crumbling national conscience—and one flustered tour guide’s good-hearted attempt to salvage some piece of it—all in under 30 minutes!.

New play workshop at UConn.

March 31, 2017

I'm looking forward to spending a week at the University of Connecticut/Connecticut Repertory Theatre with a group of BFAs, MFAs and faculty developing Oracle, a new play by Aoishe Stratford. It will also be a welcome reunion with dramaturg--and UConn faculty member--Lindsay Cummings, who I first met while working as an intern at Portland Stage Company many years ago. I believe this Oracle holds good omens!
