Plays and Playwrights Album
We asked the playwrights to bring us up to date about subsequent performances of their plays and we also asked for some pictures. Here's what they gave us.
Garth Wingfield: "Are We There Yet? had its European premiere at the Grace Theatre in London, England, by the Blue Orange Theatre Company in January 2001. Spencer Hinton directed; cast included Marella Oppenheim, Rupert Degas, Ben De Sausmarez, Alex Zorbas, Holley Chant, Diana Brooks.
The play was previously produced as an AEA showcase in New York City by New Voices Theatre Ensemble in April, 1999, at Synchronicity Space. James Knopf directed; cast included Karin Sibrava, Peter J. Crosby, Nicholas Rohlfing, Michael Anderson, Kim Reinle, Jane Ross.
After the London production, the play was further developed at the Bay Street Theatre (Sybil Christopher, Artistic Director) in Sag Harbor, New York, with Hope Davis as Amanda, and at the George Street Playhouse (David Saint, Artistic Director) in New Brunswick, New Jersey. It was also workshopped at the Cape Cod Theatre Project (Andrew Polk, Artistic Director) during the summer of 2002 in a staged reading directed by Ethan McSweeny."
David Dannenfelser: "Two photos from the original production and a photo of myself."
Robert Simonson: "There hasn't been a production of Café Society since one in Chicago in 2003. Other than that, there was one in Boston and two in New York. May have been others I don't know about."
Lynn Marie Macy: "Each of the plays from Crunching Numbers has been produced separately for fund-raisers, festivals, colleges and high schools. I would love to see them together again one day!"
"Here's a photo of myself and a flyer for the original production."

It was also produced in 2001 by FoolsFury Theater Company, in San Francisco, under the direction of Ben Yalom."
