CutlineMy short film Cutline has now been submitted to several film festivals in BC and Alberta. It's about a cub reporter on her first assignment to interview the family of a girl who died the night before. She's got just 15 minutes to file the story and get a photo of the girl before her deadline passes.
The Great Might-Have-Been
My musical The Great Might-Have-Been won the Pick of the Fringe at the 2021 Nanaimo Fringe Festival. It is a musical about a Canadian prime minister and the Scottish wife of the governor general fighting to overcome the patriarchal attitudes of the 1890s to give women the right to vote but whose efforts end in tragedy. I'm writing a two-act version I hope will be performed in Victoria in 2023.

Digby & Glass
Above are the two actors in my short film Digby & Glass, which I shot in Vancouver at the end of April and which I will enter into film festivals starting the fall of 2022. The film is based on a short play I produced at the Nanaimo Fringe Festvial in 2020 and which won the Pick of the Fringe (see the video below).
DucksI hope to produce a full-length feature film called Ducks in 2023. It is about a high-powered communications professional poised for a major promotion who has minutes to rescue his reputation and career when he discovers an underling has foolishly released an invitation in his name that would embarass his political boss.
I hope to begin assembling a cast and crew in the spring of 2023. |
Bathsheba and the BooksThis one-act play was presented at the 2022 Kelowna Fringe Aug 31-Sept 4 and the Vancouver Fringe Sept 8-18, to stellar reviews. It's about a mysterious prophet who approaches Bathsheba, the mother of King Solomon, hoping she will add his controversial book into the Bible, which she has been busy assembling.
I will have a video of the performances up here shortly. In the pipeline...Several more of my stories are coming to a stage or screen in the next few years. They include:
