My short play “Your Turn to Watch Dad” has been selected as a semi-finalist in a playwriting competition in Mankato, Minnesota.  The competition is Minnesota Shorts: A Festival of Short Plays.  They will choose 7 plays from Minnesota writers and 7 from other writers.  There were 407 scripts submitted and 77 were selected for this phase.  Next they narrow that to 10 finalists and the 7 scripts they will perform on September 7th and 8th of this year.

Last year my short play “Freedom Training” was a finalist but did not make it to the stage.  I’m hopeful this will be the year!
