I always say that the reason I love doing theatre is the chance to work with others in collaboration. I think I have some excellent and creative ideas, but when I work with others, the ideas get better. Case in point: working with a scenic designer. First of all, I should mention that I generallyContinue reading “Collaboration is Key”

Not an Endless Summer…
The summer of 2021 has been all about cleaning out a house and a garage, arranging a tool sale, and doing other online selling. Now, however, thoughts turn to a last minute vacation and, immediately following, the start of a new semester and academic year. Notably, I will retire at the end of this year,Continue reading “Not an Endless Summer…”
Where Am I?
Or perhaps more importantly, where can you find my podcast? I always say, “Wherever you listen to podcasts,” but apparently I need to supply direct links. So here’s the latest episode, the pilot of Kid Again on iHeartRadio and iTunes. Apparently I’m still on Spotify but you need to subscribe, and I have no ideaContinue reading “Where Am I?”
That’s A Wrap! (On Episode #1)
Last summer I wrote an audio drama series called Kid Again. I then did a GoFundMe, and got some support, not enough to finish the project, but enough to get us started with the pilot, or Episode #1. We have now finished recording the parts for the first Episode, and the sound files are headedContinue reading “That’s A Wrap! (On Episode #1)”
Next Vine, Please…
I often liken Life to being Tarzan swinging on vines through the jungle. We’re going along fine, and then suddenly, there’s no immediate vine. Forward motion stops. We are suddenly acutely aware of the world, and how we’d perhaps not been paying as much attention to living as we had been. This past weekend, myContinue reading “Next Vine, Please…”
Build That List!
One of the items I always see about marketing is: “Build your email list.” Now, I could do that, but I think I have a “healthy alternative.” And so, I’d like to invite you to Follow My Blog. Go to https://musofyr.org/blog/, scroll to the bottom, and add your email address where it says, “Get newContinue reading “Build That List!”
2Bornot2B
I recorded my own version of the opening of Dark Hamlet, my cutting of Shakespeare’s play. My original idea was that someone was injecting morphine, and the rest of the play was his hallucination. You can read more about it, including the script, the program of the show, and a show recording on my PlaysContinue reading “2Bornot2B”
Whose Zoomin’ Who?
Tonight is our first performance of Dark Hamlet, my cutting of the well-known Shakespeare play. It has been a consistent 59 minutes in rehearsal so I’m hoping we match that live. Here’s some of our press clippings: The CityPaper The TribLive The Latrobe Bulletin
An Interview
On Saint Patrick’s Day 2021 I was interviewed for ChatandSpin Radio in the UK. I talked about my creative endeavors with the host, Iam Johnston. I hope to go back again in May for more! You can listen to the interview on SoundCloud (https://chatandspinradio.com/listen-again/, Part 3, about 27:20. That link is only good for fourContinue reading “An Interview”
Dark Hamlet
Last Spring, our production of The Government Inspector was sidelined due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I hated to let the seven weeks of rehearsal go to waste, and had considered restaging the play in the virtual world of Second Life for Spring 2021, but due to problems with rights and the demands of the software,Continue reading “Dark Hamlet”
