Twilight: Los angeles, 1992

Written and performed by Anna Deavere Smith.

 
 
 

Okay, I didn't write this.  Not in the least.  

But fresh out of college in 1994, I did serve as Anna's assistant/student dramaturg during the run of Twilight: Los Angeles, 1992 at the New York Public Theater and Broadway's Cort Theater, and I worked closely with George C. Wolfe and Tony Kushner, and it kinda sorta got me started on this creative path I've apparently taken, so I think it should count. 

My memories are many:  rehearsing lines with Anna into the wee hours of the morning, and shooting the shit with Tony Kushner as he was becoming Tony Kushner.  

Lucky guy was I.
