Melodious messages

“Don’t be boring” is a foundational mandate for public speaking. So why do so many speakers put us to sleep? And how can we make sure we do not?You’ll find answers to these pressing questions in this month’s blog.

Join me for A Very Present Presence
Streaming June 2 - June 16

Pipeline Playwrights presents the Zoom World Premiere of my play A Very Present Presence, directed by Catherine Tripp. This production will be available as video-on-demand from June 2 at 7 pm through June 16 at 7 pm (ET).

A Very Present Presence is a magical comedy that opens as Alice's mid-life crisis is interrupted by a visitation from her long-dead great-aunt. This show has everything: ghosts, time-travel, young love, craven lobbyists, protesting feminists, and tricky family relationships. The Zoom production will feature: Diane Cooper-Gould, Ty Corbin, Erin Denman, and Jennifer Pagnard. 

Tickets for A Very Present Presence are available at www.pipelineplaywrightsboxoffice.org.

I'll be attending the Opening Night Party (June 2), Closing Party (June 16) and Monday night discussions June 7 and 14. Join me. More info on these events is available on Pipeline Playwrights' website!

Spring has sprung!

I took a lovely walk today. Some things I saw reminded me of recent client conversations, and insights I shared about business communications. You can read what thoughts sprung to mind this fine spring day here.

In other news….

Pipeline Playwrights, the collective of producing playwrights I co-founded in 2016, is now officially a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation! To celebrate, we've launched a MATCHING MARCH campaign. All donations this month up to $3,500 will be matched by a generous donor.

And we're excited that this spring we'll be bringing more plays, more events, more women playwrights, and more theater to a Zoom screen near you!!! Check out our website to find out what's coming down the pipeline.
