Right now we have several other projects coming up. We are having a workshop of another play for our Take Ten winner, Sander Gunisow, in late July. And in the first week of September at Shetler Studios, we are premiering Uprising, the original play/multimedia event by Samantha Manas and myself, about the labor movement. We have almost finished casting, so stay tuned for more on that!

Till next time (hope it's sooner)!
