Dallas Two short pieces by Gary Swaim will be read Tuesday night, May 18th at 7:00pm at the Irving Arts Center, 3333 North MacArthur Blvd. (map) in Irving. Austin The Bonobos by Amparo Garcia-Crow Sunday, May 23rd @ 6:30pm The State Theatre, 719 Congress Ave. (map) Divorced couple Lorenzo and Antonia have been having an affair. When a cyber porn unit comes knocking on Lorenzo's door during a tryst, the couple discovers that Tiffany, their seventeen-year-old daughter has been starring in and selling internet "instructive videos" falsely implicating Lorenzo as a child pornographer. In the process of defending his innocence, the hypocrisies of sex in one family illuminates the "missing link" that might just bring them all back together again.

Script Works Summer Fun

30/60/90 started June 1st, but you can still jump in on the action. Sign up for a period of time — 30, 60, or 90 days. We believe the small suggested donation for 30/60/90 will help give you an incentive for your creative commitment (and cover our administrative costs); but a basic tenet of 365 Days/365 Plays is radical inclusion, so contact christi-at-scriptworks.org if the fee is prohibitive — the fee for members is 33 cents a day. AND, we are happy to announce the return of the Summer Satellites - these are small member-defined groups which focus on a specific writing area or issue, e.g. rewrites, screenwriting, new projects, etc. or they can be organized by geographic area. Contact Aimée at list-at-scriptworks.org and she will connect people with like interests. From there each group will determine how often and when they meet and what their personal goals and deadlines are.
