Ellen McLaughlin as part of: SUMMER BRIEFS presented by Remote Theater

Time: Jun 20, 2020 02:00 PM in Pacific Time (US and Canada)

About the playwrights:

BILLY ARONSON'S theater credits include premieres at Playwrights Horizons, Woolly Mammoth, SF Playhouse, Ensemble Studio Theatre, and the original concept/additional lyrics for Rent. With artist Jennifer Oxley he created the Emmy-winning PBS Kids show Peg + Cat. With wife Lisa Vogel he created their animated offspring Jake and Anna.

RAOUL ROSENBERG has lived many lives and is currently trying to be one person. He studied philosophy at Princeton and has won 2 Emmy’s which he didn’t really deserve. Currently, he is becoming a psychotherapist so he can sit with depressed people. If he had lived a more successful life, he’d have a Wikipedia page.
