Susan Kathryn Hefti's THE POWER PLAY, or Smart Bombs & Other Sexy Toys Gets Reading at the Lark!

We are thrilled to announce that Susan Kathryn Hefti's new play, THE POWER PLAY, or Smart Bombs & Other Sexy Toys will have a Roundtable Reading at the Lark Play Development Center in NYC on July 23rd!

An odyssey through the lives of four hopeful graduate students, THE POWER PLAY, or Smart Bombs & Other Sexy Toys, explores the nature of power, seduction and betrayal in the context of U.S. military policies: Threading the personal through the eye of a pointedly political needle, the play wrestles with moral questions evoked by the increased reliance on unmanned drone strikes, the targeted assassination of the American-born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki and the 2009 troop surge into Afghanistan.

The Roundtable reading of THE POWER PLAY, or Smart Bombs & Other Sexy Toys  will be directed by the awesomely talented Reginald Douglas! And Pong - a character aptly described as a "badass" by the actress who will be reading her - will be given voice by the fiercely talented Reyna de Courcy!

AMERICAN DAMES Hits the Mark at 22nd Annual Long Beach Playhouse Festival!

Fresh off the proverbial printer, the latest draft of playwright Susan Kathryn Hefti's AMERICAN DAMES, or Waiting for Dolley was read aloud for the very first time on Sunday, August 19, 2012 as part of the 22nd Annual Long Beach Playhouse (LBP) New Works Festival in Long Beach, California!

Directed by LBP's Kate Felton, the cold reading of this brand-spanking-new script went swimmingly! Boldly piercing the boundaries of history, the marvelous cast made vivid these time-tripping, if iconic, American Dames! 

Set on the Fourth of July, 2011, just months before the 10th Anniversary of the terrorist attacks, Martha, Abigail, Betsy & Molly try desperately to wrap their 18th century brains around the ever-changing American landscape as they wait anxiously for Dolley's arrival: But will she ever come? Could the American Dames even be real? Could they possibly still be alive? Could it really be that the Dames have somehow been living on a historic continuum on Manhattan's tony Upper East Side all these years? Or are these spirited, opinionated patriots just ghosts from America's past?

In the universe that is AMERICAN DAMES, these and other such existential questions may not have any easy answers. But this brand new draft of the play (which not even the playwright has yet heard!) inspired a very spirited (pun intended) post-reading discussion about the play and its themes on the American identity!

Already garnering three new play festival awards (Stella Adler's 2012 Harold Clurman Finalist; 2012 Long Beach Playhouse New Works Finalist & 2012 Julie Harris Playwriting Award Semi-Finalist), the great enthusiasm for AMERICAN DAMES, and its wonderfully eccentric distaff characters, continues to propel this fresh and original play forward throughout the development process.

We applaud the Long Beach Playhouse Theatre for nurturing new work & for providing a safe environment in which emerging American playwrights can explore & experiment as they continue to develop & write their plays! 

A big thanks to everybody who attended the reading in California! And thanks especially to Andrew Vonderschmitt & everybody else at the Long Beach Playhouse Theatre who helped to create this wonderful opportunity to continue the development of Susan Kathryn Hefti's newest full-length play AMERICAN DAMES, or Waiting for Dolley!

As we journey through the development process for this exciting new American play, we'll be sure to keep you all posted on its progress!

Susan Kathryn Hefti's 'Dear Prudence' Heats Up The Paris Stage This Fall!

Ooh là là! Things are really heating up on the Paris stage this fall: On October 14, 2010, Susan Kathryn Hefti's hit comedy Dear Prudence - which enjoyed an extended run Off-Broadway in 2003 - was back on the boards again in the city of lights!

Translated and produced by the popular French actress Myriam Blanckaert - best known to American audiences for her memorable role as Evelyn the Paris Bookstore owner in the final episodes of Sex and the City - Chere Prudence, a playfully bawdy farce about a lovable nymphomaniac named Prudence, proved a perfect match for the Parisian audience in this exciting staged reading at La Comédie Bastille this fall!

So keep your passports at the ready, as we all may be jetting off to Paris before too long!

Special thanks again (Merci! Merci!) to Ambassador John L. Loeb, Jr. for taking a chance on an unknown playwright by hosting the original Backer's Reading for Dear Prudence in his living room, raising all the money for the original NYC production in just one night!

As Chere Prudence continues to wind its way from page to stage - in preparation for a Paris production - we'll keep you all posted on her very exciting progress!

  

Congratulations again to Myriam and the rest of her marvelous cast on the very exciting staged reading of Chere Prudence in Paris on October 14th: C'est si bon!

Susan Kathryn Hefti Playwright

An emerging American playwright, Susan Kathryn Hefti's plays have been developed or produced at Rattlestick Playwrights Theater NYC; The Lark Play Development Center NYC; The Harold Clurman Playwrights Division at The Stella Adler Studio NYC; St. Mark's Church-in-the-Bowery Theatre NYC; Capital Stage Company CA; Long Beach Playhouse Theatre CA and in Paris at Théâtre Mélo d'Amelie & La Comédie Bastille. 

Susan's newest play THE POWER PLAY, or Smart Bombs & Other Sexy Toys received a Roundtable Reading at the Lark Play Development Center NYC in July and a staged reading in August as it was selected to be part of Capital Stage Company's annual New Works Festival PLAYWRIGHTS REVOLUTION 2013.

AMERICAN DAMES, or Waiting for Dolley (2012 Long Beach Playhouse New Works Festival Finalist; 2011-2012 Harold Clurman Playwright-in-Residence Finalist & Beverly Hills Theatre Guild's 2012 Julie Harris Playwright Award Semi-Finalist) enjoyed readings at both the 2012 Harold Clurman Playwrights Division's New Play Reading Festival in NYC and the 2012 Long Beach Playhouse Theatre's New Works Festival in Long Beach, California.      

Inspired by the tragic death of one of her Yale students, Hefti's play KEEPIN' COOL was selected 2004 Princess Grace Award Semi-Finalist.

In 2006 Hefti's one-act history play A DEFIANT SOUL  was presented at the St. Mark's Church-in-the-Bowery Theater (directed by Vernice Miller) as part of a city-wide event entitled 5 Dutch Days. Set in 1661, A DEFIANT SOUL brings to life the dramatic battle of wills between New Amsterdam‘s Dutch Director-General Petrus Stuyvesant and the English Quaker John Bowne whose dangerous and singular act of civil disobedience led directly to the establishment of religious freedom in the new world.

Written in verse, A DEFIANT SOUL was later adapted to be used as a teaching tool in the NYC school system - in workshops led by theatre artist Vernice Miller - where it has been widely performed by students exploring early NYC history and the establishment of religious freedom in America.

The success of that play also brought Hefti a commission from the City of NY; to write the narrative for the related exhibit on the 1657 document protesting religious intolerance in New Amsterdam. The exhibit, The Flushing Remonstrance: Who Shall Plead For Us?, was designed to travel around the country following its celebrated 2009 NYC debut. Enjoying an encore return to NYC in April 2010, the exhibition was again extended due to popular demand. Following a 2012 installation in Pennsylvania, the exhibition is expected to travel on to the American midwest.

A proud member of the Dramatists Guild, The Playwrights' Center and Fractured Atlas, Susan debut work for the stage was launched by the highly successful 2003 world premiere of her play Dear Prudence which enjoyed an extended run at Rattlestick Playwrights Theater. The impressive success of Dear Prudence also led Tony Award winning Arielle Tepper Productions to select Hefti as Guest Speaker for the 2003 Syracuse University Tepper Theater Program in Manhattan. 

Hailed by Gay City News as "a light, wonderful play that will have you laughing all the way through", Dear Prudence wowed a whole new audience in 2010 with two exciting staged readings in Paris ( Théâtre Mélo d'Amelie and La Comédie Bastille)! 

Hefti began her professional writing career as a journalist specializing in environmental news before transitioning into writing for the stage. In 2009, Susan was invited to dust off her reporter's notebook and write a regular column for The Clyde Fitch Report. Happy to use the opportunity to explore another issue close to her heart, Hefti dubbed the online series, The Preservation Diaries. 

A 2004 recipient of a PEN American Center Writers Grant, Hefti has taught at several Universities including Brown and Yale.
