"Searching"
The tortured musician will stop at nothing to protect his dead brother's legacy.
In quarantine, my collaborators and I discovered the surprising power of plays written and performed as video calls.
To get this work out, I founded TheSharedScreen. With the support of the Tony- and Emmy-Nom Stephen Belber, I adapted the hit play TAPE for the TheSharedScreen's first commercial production. TAPE has been produced in 25 countries and made into a movie (starring Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman). After a successful run in September 2020, Tape ran again in February 2021 and was named a top pick by The New York Times as "Theater to Stream."
In my guide to creating effective online theater, I coined the term "Dramatic Betweenness." I identified that a play performed as a video call is an entirely new medium of performing arts, which offers an unprecedented and incredibly intimate audience experience that places the viewer between the players. I am determined to continue exploring how this concept can be leveraged to draw audiences into the dramatic exploration of profound subject matter and spark change.
