David,
I never got a chance to talk to you but I directed your show "Russian Literature" in Germany.
I must say it was quite a pleasure to work with your show. Richard and Stacy Smith were amazing in it.
I would love to discuss your show or if you have any questions concerning our production please email me at

cheers
Hi Joshua! It's great to hear from you. Actually, Richard sent me a DVD of the show (I think when it was in Heidelberg?) and I thought the production looked quite good. Richard I thought was particularly impressive and I wish I had seen him do it live. I've actually rewritten the show somewhat since then, and we will be going with the new(er) version for this production. I'd never been totally satisfied with my work on it - hopefully this new version is a little closer to what I'm trying to get to.
