Answer Me Now is a 10-minute monologue (middle-aged woman asking her dead mom a question). Autobiographical?  Please see the play and decide for yourself.  I hope you’ll be able to attend a performance.  Festival Director Lennie Dean is lining up directors. Who will be directing my play?

I can’t wait to see the other 8 plays written by fellow playwrights.

Festival Director Lennie Dean says: “More than 20 roles to cast and we will use 12 actors for these 20 some roles…. I have been working to firm up all of the events planned for the festival and will also send the line-up of the different events to all very soon.”

(Teresa here . . .  I’ll update my Events page on my website as I receive more info).

If you’re planning to catch a performance, please email me (I’m at gmail.com  My ID is: WritingCoachTeresa).  I’d like to greet you in person before and after the show. Santa Rosa is a lovely town; perhaps you can support the festival and visit other attractions too.

Playwright Teresa LeYung-Ryan cheers for everyone involved in the Redwood Writers & 6th Street Playhouse Play Festival 2012
