PlayWrite
Last night I enjoyed the fortuitous oppotunity to enjoy the play Gershwin Alone at the Pasadena Playhouse. I was inspired by this historical monologue and musical that examined the life and accomplishments of George Gershwin. I thought it was pretty amazing what a writer can accomplish in piecing together an entire life of a person for presentation in a 90 minute time slot. I am reminded how important it is to examine the quality of communication in any written work. If a piece of writing does not communicate its intention, what good then should it be?
