Company One Playlab

In December of 2017, I received an email from Francisca Da Silveira, the Literary Manager of Company One (C1) Theatre stating that I had been accepted into their Season 19 Playlab Unit Program. The timing couldn’t have been better, as I had just finished a run with Fresh Ink Theatre’s Ink Spot play development series and was hungry for a continuation of the mentorship I received from that program. Fresh Ink whet my appetite for working closely with a director, in this case, Josh Glenn-Kaden and dramaturg Marissa Friedman, in preparing my script for a public staged reading of my full-length play, The Token Fallopians of Middleton Heights.
