Dramaturg, playwright, gamer, teacher, ne'er do well. Now with all new feature: father! Crisp, smooth, and pretentious since 1982.

My four year old said to me this morning, “dad, are we just going in circles?”

Oh, are we ever, buddy. Are we ever.

I know I’m not on Twitter much anymore, but I just wanted to share that my 4yo wants to be a bee keeper when he grows up… when asked why, he says, “to help the earth.”

These kids, man.

@JessHutchinson It’s all you ever want to do!

“I’m thinking, remember, it’s a thinking game.”
-My 4yo, while playing chess.

Just because I got around to starting my #EndOfPlay writing late, doesn’t mean I’m a bad writer. Uhh… right? 😬

See— if you expect it of your students, they’ll rise to the occasion. Currently in the middle of my freshman “ensemble play production” unit; inviting groups of 14 year olds to write, rehearse, and perform their own plays. It’s. Freaking. Epic.

@delsannio I’m basically okay with never leaving…

[Ty Monroe-roe-roe-Your-Boat @dramaturd]

What are my children doing in there…?

The answer is, of course, “making an epic obstacle course.”

[Ty Monroe-roe-roe-Your-Boat @dramaturd]

Would that I could approach every conversation with the same earnestness as my four year old.

@JessHutchinson You’re super smart and I’d already anything you wrote… even a five pager you have no desire to complete!

@patrickgabridge That’s it— if you agree, then I’m considering the case closed on the matter.

So… cherry pie sounds as a lunch food, right? Asking for a friend…

[Ty Monroe-roe-roe-Your-Boat @dramaturd]

@cmeak Sorry, you’re not allowed to move.

But still— for shame, opportunities, for shame!

[Ty Monroe-roe-roe-Your-Boat @dramaturd]

@JennaCEmbrey This is the validation I needed, and coming from you it’s basically like a nutritionist rubber-stamping my solid dietary choices.

[Ty Monroe-roe-roe-Your-Boat @dramaturd]

I feel like I’ve been here before…
