The Phases of Balancing the Moon

Originally published in shorter form in LA Stage Times First Person.

Balancing the Moon is my first full-length play. Set in 1934, the story revolves around Jared Thornhill, a Freudian psychoanalyst who expects his wife Charlotte to put her poetry aside to type his academic articles. When an Irish love fairy possesses Charlotte and tries to teach Jared the ways of women, Jared learns he must tap into something much deeper than Freud to get Charlotte back.
