Sunday, March 25, 2pm - Program 2 (see above)

All performances take place in the Black Box Theater at the College of the Canyons. Admission is free, but there is very limited seating. Show up early.

My play, Valentino, will be an excerpt from the full-length play. The actors will perform Act One, Scenes 2 and 3. The New Works staging will run about 45 minutes, and represents about one third of the entire work.

This is a minimal production, with no period costumes and only limited blocking. However, the actors will be "off-book" (lines memorized), and there will be a sword fight!
