I hope this message finds you well. I’m reaching out with a bit of news that I’m quite excited to share. The Drama Book Shop, in collaboration with Jay Michaels Global Communications, is hosting an evening for me, featuring a reading from my play, SINCERELY HELD BELIEFS, on Tuesday, December 12, 2023, at 7:30 PM.
I wanted you to be the first to know – THE BOX OFFICE IS NOW OPEN!
A Little About the Play
Mandy is caught between her two lifelong friends. One a grieving mother, and the other a zealous clairvoyant who is convinced she is receiving messages from the other side. Mandy must try to mediate these two relationships, while staying true to her own beliefs.
This is a personal play for me, born out of an experience with two longtime friends from my youth. My hope is to examine the line between sincerely held beliefs and mental illness, and reflect on how we treat people who have different views from our own.
It’s also something that could be interpreted as a ghost story or a psychological drama, much like THE INNOCENTS (1960), a longtime favorite film.
The Team Bringing It to Life
I’m incredibly lucky to be working with three phenomenal actors who are bringing an extraordinary depth to these characters, Erin Treadway, Mary Monahan, and Kerry McGann. They are incredibly powerful artists, and I’m sure it’s going to be electrifying.
