Go see "The Other Josh Cohen." It holds two lessons I take to heart. Created by David Rossmer and Steve Rosen (who also star) it has gone through years of development and workshops and has come out in a sharp distinct performance that does not feel like it came from a committee but from the … Continue reading Review – The Other Josh Cohen

Cincinnati Reds Pitchers and Catchers report for their ultimate championship season!
Since the day I was born (or maybe a few years later when I could actually form words and syllables) I have said that this was the year the Reds would take it all, another World Series win! I admit I've only been right a few times but this time I mean it. It is … Continue reading Cincinnati Reds Pitchers and Catchers report for their ultimate championship season!
Review – God Shows Up
I really wanted to like the new play God Shows Up, now at the Playroom Theatre in midtown through February 21. It is written by theatre reviewer and chronicler Peter Filichia. He is a member of one of my favorite podcasts (This Week On Broadway). I usually agree with his reviews and insight and find … Continue reading Review – God Shows Up
Review – The African Drum
It is not often that I go to public school auditoriums to view theatre. But the presence in the cast of talented actress Kasey Moorhouse (who has been in several of our productions) was enough to draw me in. The Shadow Box Theatre has been performing a repertoire of plays for elementary schools for decades … Continue reading Review – The African Drum

It would be … Continue reading National Cream Cheese Brownie Day
Next short play is in rehearsals!
Coming up later this month my new short play will be in the Players Theatre Short Play Festival in Greenwich Village. It is not profound but is a fun playful piece. The performers, Eric Diamond, Maera Daniel Hagage, Babak Mehrabi, Will Pierson, and Carly Ruda have been terrific in early rehearsals. We strongly recommend you … Continue reading Next short play is in rehearsals!
National Shower With A Friend Day
Today is National Shower With A Friend Day. I suppose it is better than Shower With An Enemy Day. If you regularly read this blog, you know I try to include quality graphics with each post. Considering the nature of this National Day I am including enough buffer space to prevent you viewing this graphic … Continue reading National Shower With A Friend Day
National Home Made Soup Day
Today is National Home Made Soup Day. There is nothing more warming than a bowl of delicious fresh made soup during a dark winter. Did you see the game last night? Most of America did, I'm sure. Actually I prefer a defensive match so I enjoyed myself. I don't need lots of scoring to enjoy … Continue reading National Home Made Soup Day

You can find out more by going to http://www.goredforwomen.com or on Facebook GoRedGetFit. Use the hashtag #GoRedWearRed on your social media and … Continue reading National Wear Red Day
