Free offers to production companies
(click here to go to Royalty-Free Plays page)
Special offer for all companies that have produced my work*******
If you have produced one of my plays and would like to try something new,
I present my 'FREE - no royalties for the first weekend' offer (3 shows -one weekend)
Example - if you produced THE AFFIDAVIT, I would give you permission to produce CURSE OF THE DUCHESS with no royalties for the first weekend!)
Special offer for all companies that have NOT produced my work*******
If you have never produced one of my plays and would like to try something new,
try my FREE no royalties offer for the first weekend (3 shows -one weekend)
for a play that has never been published or produced.
This is your chance to get a world premiere - with no royalties for the first
weekend! All the plays offered have been read publicly and I am available for rewrites at no cost to your company. Why do I do this? Because even though
most of my work has been published and/or produced, I would like to see all my '
work out on its own. So, in the same way Mrs. Fields gave out free samples (of
which I had many!), I am offering my work to groups that want to take a risk on
something new - but not a totally unknown quantity.
As you can see by navigating around this site (my playwriting abilities are
better than my website skills) my plays are well-received and well-reviewed.
My work has been produced extensively throughout the United States and
Canada, and in many countries worldwide. (UK, Austria, New Zealand, Burma,
China and more)
(and perhaps - after you try something for free, you might want to try more of my other cookies....I mean plays.)
