CURRENT PROJECT-IN-PROCESS:
"Blue-beard; being the Tragical History of that Notorious Frenchman, Gilles De Rais; his Life & Death; A Play in Verse in Two Parts."
Part One, "The Angel":
Powerful Forces vie for dominance in mid-fifteenth century France, and a young but battle-hardened Gilles is comrade-in-arms with Jehanne the Maid at the battles of Orleans, Patay, Paris, and Compeigne; her capture, trial, and death.
Part Two, "The Devil":
In which a haunted and desperately inspired Gilles abandons himself to the World that his riches, status, and desires urge him to, and pursues sorcery to bind the Devil to him; his arrest, trial, and sentence...
A Public Reading of Parts 1 & 2 will occur late late in 2008; Keep your Eyes peeled.

PRODUCTION HISTORY:2006 -
'Le Lycanthrope; a Revenge-Farce with a Monster-Movie Groove'
'Le Lycanthrope' is an unofficial sequel to Moliere's play, 'Le Misanthrope', which ends with the titular Misanthrope, Alceste, furiously leaving Paris, vowing not to live in a Society "where Man is arrant Wolf to Man".
'Le Lycanthrope' picks up the action six years later (1673), and Alceste has returned to Paris for Revenge, claiming to be a Lycanthrope (Were-wolf), and invites his enemies to a Halloween Party...
Composed in rhyming couplets of iambic pentameter, this play is equal parts revenge-tragedy, farce, and 1940's-era Monster Movie.
