PAPER DADDY 


September 12 - September 21, 2014

Talking Horse Productions
Columbia, Missouri


Franklin Pomeroy's ashes 
are in an urn on Charlie' s dining room table, 
and her daughter expects a
 funeral 
(or something!)
to honor the man who abandoned them over twenty years ago.
Outrageous?  You bet!  
Will Charlie Pomeroy rise to the occasion? 
Join the fun in this raucous, outlandishly poignant new play 
by one of America's emerging comic writers. 

Meanwhile, enjoy the musical themes of Paper Daddy -  presented by Dame Cleo Laine, Jimmy Durante, Pasty Cline, Johnny Cash, Billie Holiday, Perry Como, Dean Martin, The Beatles.

Writing for the theatre requires imagination, enthusiasm and stamina.  Working in the gardens of the Cozy Cottage provides all three.  If you're ever in St. Paul, Minnesota, stop by to see me.  I'll be certain to pick a bouquet for you to take on the road, and pour you a cup of the coffee that makes Como Park famous.

Some folks think that color detracts from language.  I feel the opposite.  Throwing the delight of nature into the center of a story deepens the appeal of the plot.  Listen for the way in which the environment explodes in my work - you'll appreciate the power of the peony and the quiet trust of the new tulip.
