I’m asked to give a ‘citation’.for WordPress. OK. My first such play (A CLOWN, A HAMMER, A BOMB AND GOD opened in 1997 at the first NY Fringe Festival and has been performed and toured in the US and Europe, with early performances courtesy of Ben Roberts. This picture was taken in Rotterdam in 1999l
My play for Occupy Wall Street, HOW TO STOP THE EMPIRE WHILE KEEPING YOUR DAY JOB, was performed numerous times in the US and was part of a DC event in 2016. Here’s a pic of that event where I performed in front of the Washington Monument.
So… here’s a list of plays I’ve done that are solo endeavors for me. I can perform most of them with a bit of notice.
- A Clown, a Hammer, a Bomb and God(a play based on Fr, Carl Kabat, an activist priest who disarmed a Minuteman Missile on Good Friday 1994
