Felicity’s Family Tree will be published in a special edition of The Louisville Review, a literary journal based at Spalding University. In honor of Kentucky’s Poet Laureate, Maureen Morehead, this forthcoming edition will feature compositions from writers with connections to the Bluegrass State. Previously a finalist for the Heideman Award at Actors Theatre of Louisville, my two-character short drama has been on stages in 8 states.

Bernice Sizemore’s 70th Birthday has been chosen for a staged reading in Houston, Texas, as part of the February 2012 Drama-Rama-Thon at Unhinged Productions. The theatre seeks plays that “speak, often with humor, to universal experiences that include discrimination, prejudice, and the quest for individuality.” Bernice is a full-length comedy about internal wiring, family, and acceptance.

Also in Texas, The Snowflake Theory has won Second Place in McKinney Repertory Theatre’s First Annual New Play Competition. It will have a staged reading during the theatre’s ninth season in the summer of 2012. Snowflake is a full-length comedy about a Jewish family.

Theatre is one of many ways to remember the Civil War (1861-1865). A little known moment in that conflict occurred when Ulysses S. Grant banished all Jews from his military district on 24 hours’ notice, causing 30 families from Paducah, Kentucky, to flee upriver to Cincinnati. Contact me for a review copy of my awarding winning drama General Orders No. 11, which was inspired by Grant’s order.
