Successful Spaghetti

The update is no longer an update because it's nine days overdue. Let’s call it gloating, it was a live performance therefore I am allowed.

Spaghetti Night exceeded any expectations that I may have had regarding the new style reading series…well, new for The Roundtable. I have to admit that all of the work which went into the evening paid off; reading various screenplays, choosing screenplays, casting actors, contacting the actors, editing the screenplays, rehearsing for the reading, etc...

Being that I am my own worst critic, I had a most joyous evening and am grateful to the exceptional actors and writers who participated and made the event one of my favorite Roundtable events in all seven seasons. Not to mention, we had an incredible audience.

The very talented screenplays that were submitted and then chosen were:

Adam, Carissa & Lloyd by Mark Brewster Smith (drama)
The Push by Bryan Blatstein and Stephen Camelio (comedy/drama)
The Product of 3C by Michelle Pilar Hamill (drama)
Single Bullet Theory by Mike Bencivenga (romantic comedy)

The superb talent who participated in each of the readings:

Sarah Bloom
Jason Dietz
Mike Hall
Justin Henry
Julie Hera
John McDermott
John Pasha
Karyn Plonsky
Susan Stewart
Van Troung
