I am a professional actor and I've been writing plays for over a decade. I would say my style ranges from magical realism dramas to absurd nihilistic satires.

Plays

  • HOLY FUCKING SHIT {a play designed for a different reality}
    This play is a new branch of the contemporary avant-garde. This play is impossible to stage. Please please please please PLEASE: someone prove me wrong.
  • Can I not save but one?
    A poetic remastering of an old classic club banger: "A Dream Within A Dream", by Edgar Allen Poe.
  • Heavenly Bodies
    A teenager on the verge of adulthood. Failing at everything around him, all the time. George Tweed turns to some pretty dark places to find peace in this Magical Realism Horror Comedy.
  • Another Minute
    Nina and Sam are on their first date. Things go off the rails a little and what ensues is a mix of tragic and surreal.
  • Jumping Off
    One actor tries his best to give you the show you deserve. But then again, do you really deserve it? Watch as the show will constantly grapple with its audience, until they come to a definition of what they're both looking for exactly.
  • Unnamed Bunker
    There is a torn up world outside. But all we know is this bunker. Only one issue, someone in this bunker is mad. But is he really mad, or is something bigger going on?
  • Study Group Hooray (A Pandemic Zoom Horror)
    Three friends log on to study for their calculus final, when one of them realizes theres a secretive 4th member on the zoom, one that poses a scary and potentially deadly threat. What does it want?
  • Self-Editing
    An absurdist exploration into the idea of human presentation and why we're all so afraid to be ourselves.
  • Expectations
    This is a show about 2 characters, Boy and Girl. As their lives are a perpetual rambling of meet-cutes followed by heartbreak, all being dictated by the slightly omnipotent narrator. Will they ever win? Or will they stay trapped in this cycle of true human despair.
  • I Would Ask You
    NOTE! THE "SCRIPT SAMPLE" FILE IS A SHORTENED AND UPDATED VERSION OF THE SCRIPT. YOU MAY CHOOSE EITHER OF THE TWO VERSIONS YOU PREFER!

    Dave and Greg are a couple of bros, but things get messy when it turns out one of the bros is a little more sensitive then he's let on, and now it's starting to explode out of him.
