Michael Bettencourt
Life of the Daily Adequate
I had also had pretentions to take up dancing
as a career.  And there came
a moment - that moment

Arthur Meiselman
Life Upon the Wicked Stage
Want to act, must act, can't live without it? Get a license! Or... satisfy your masturbatory performing fantasy by joining a Reality television show.

Nathan Thomas
Playing with Plays
The purpose of a play is to be worked
on by a group of folks.  Each person
engages the play from a distinct perspective

Les Marcott
Unforgettable Lines from
Unforgettable Songs

When an intellectual argument won't suffice
and an emotional connection is needed
song lyrics work quite nicely

Claudine Jones
Sick of It
My sainted mother said 'don't take it so seriously'
but every rehearsal was the same torture
Isn't torture supposed to be illegal?

Martin Challis
A Man of Style & Grace

There was never a hint of status-play or ego.
I remember feeling included and
inspired by him on very occasion we played.

Lady in Black

Scene4 Magazine Arts and Media: "Lady In Black" by Farzana Moon"Lady in Black, is not a writer's fantasy, but a weaver's dream. All words woven into the tapestry of life with colors dark and throbbing. Farzana Moon weaves a story based on the myth that when a serpent gets to be one hundred year old, it can transform itself into human form. The protagonist is believed to be this serpent, though she is a living, breathing goddess of beauty and wisdom. Wedded three times and widowed as many times, she meets the god of her love in the fourth one. Immolating her life in the end, instead of becoming the cause of her husband's death. The lush green valley of Khanaspur is the breathtaking setting against the clouds of warfare, witnessing the pangs of birth to deliver India and Pakistan into the world of Independence. It is a beautiful and sometimes terrifying story. Click to Read
