'And Here I Am' was a play I wrote about the life of Palestinian actor #AhmedTobasi and performed by him. Ahmed is the artistic director of @freedom_theatre. I just received the news that he has been detained by the Israeli army. Please RT to demand his release.
Every year, a man leaves and promises the prospect of a better life. Every year, a woman is left waiting.

@JaredMezzocchi This is maybe too basic, but we are leaning into “in-person” for what often intuitively gets called “live,” since our digital streams are also live in real time.

Friends, thank you all for the pub day love this week! I'm sorry I'm not able to respond to every tweet (I tried to keep up!), but I am reading them all, and every one has meant a lot to me. Here are some pics from the book launch on Tuesday with @buffstreetbooks@CherryArtspace!
@JaredMezzocchi@herearts Cherry is live-streaming all our shows and our audiences are continuing to love the extra option! Always exciting to find the most artful way to live-shoot and mix a show that also has an in person audience… 🔥🔥
Congrats to one of our fav long-time retreat guests, @savranly — it’s pub day for her NEW BOOK! 🚀 Book launch tonight in Ithaca at 7pm @CherryArtspace#twithaca
@jmmy_jrdn Review local arts and performance! 🎉🔥🎉 Things people can’t already read a hundred reviews of at RottenTomatoes — you don’t need to be an expert in the art forms, just a smart audience member. That’s often better, in fact—
Ithaca remembers #GeorgeKaplan’s US premiere at the Cherry—great to see such a sharp shoutout from the brilliant @Helen_E_Shaw for the fab NYC production from @_maxwellhunter and @The_BridgeGroup!
