I wanted to drop a quick line to thank the American Association of Community Theatres (otherwise known as “AACT”) for advancing my script “The Footsteps of God” to their semifinalist round for their 2018 new works competition.

“Footsteps” did not advance beyond the second reading, but it is a great honor for the play to have advanced as far as it did, especially since it is a very new work with minimal development.

My tragedy “Fifteen Men in a Smoke-Filled Room” – which is being given a world premiere by Elite Theatre Company of Oxnard, CA later this month – was among the top 20 scripts in AACT’s 2013 contest.

Best of wishes to AACT for this year’s new play festival!
