About 'Rise'...

The play 'Rise about a young gay male's struggle toward self-realization and the art exhibit 'Religion, myth and fantasy' have had to be put on the back burner because the slow economy and for financial reasons. Whomever I end up with will have to understand that I do suffer for my art and at times live on 'air' alone. I have tried to continue with some of these ideas on my blog entries but there is always another layer to reach and I hope to have great success with these projects. Having made this about my personal journey in self-transformation, I have had to go back to the drawing board with some re-writes for the play as I feel this must now be more about the human condition not a type. 'Rise' is a tender love story of a young man who finds himself in a human situation and I hope to address this without the fear of censorship to write the play I wish to write. I am very proud about how frank I have been and it took a lot of courage. We are now aiming to mount the production for the end of next year to be included in some of our festivals. The Art exhibit will follow...peace...
