My first screenplay. It took me three years to write, and is in turn 130 pages long. One of the more epic things I’ve ever written, however, not epic in the sense of the siege of Troy, but rather the drama of humanity. Deals with the issue of how to keep faith in the midst …

Speak Up
This play was written by me and a friend of mine, Brian Risselada, for a 24 hour theatre project that we were a part of. So we wrote this whole thing in one night, and I really haven’t looked at it since. Final Draft
DutchMAN
This play is based on the play by Amiri Baraka of the same name. I was flipping through the channels one time, and MTV was doing an interview with Britney Spears. It pissed me off so much, that I wrote this play. First Draft

Hate
NPR was running a very interesting segment this morning on Vietnam. They interviewed one man in particular, who was a survivor of the My Lai massacre. One thing he said that I found powerful was he said “I don’t hate Americans, just the Americans that did this.” I would certainly understand if he hated all …
