failure is always an option

"What writers at their best achieve is a 

saturation of shame, triumphing over it by 

excluding or extenuating nothing, possessing 

it as theirs, and handing it back again, 

depersonalised, in comedy of one sort or 

another."- Howard Jacobson

Novaya Zemlya needs your help!

Novaya Zemlya is in the Downtown Urban Theater Festival on March 7th and we have a little funding to do...that's where you come in! Any donation big or small will be greatly appreciated by our cast and crew. (Though big donors walk away with some quirky prizes.)

Here's a little about the play:

A brother and sister live in an idyllic dacha oblivious to the world at large for over ten years. Many things happen in this time: the Chernobyl meltdown, the fall of Communism, the mass exodus of Jews and the rise of Roseanne among them. 

 If you want to support art, theater, russians/ukranians, comedy, female playwrights, female directors or just me as a human being, help a sister out. Support Novaya Zemlya here.

...Sometimes I'm quite insecure.

novaya zemlya or a strange new land

Come join me and Milk Can Theatre company for a reading from my full length play, as well as works by other exciting playwrights.

Plus, you can ask me any question you like. (Be nice.)

A bit about the play: A brother and sister live in an idyllic dacha oblivious to the world at large for over ten years. Many things happen in this time: the Chernobyl meltdown, the fall of Communism, the mass exodus of Jews and the rise of Roseanne among them.

 Come check out an excerpt from Novaya Zemlya next Monday.
