The New Album Project:
In mid-December, 2024, I began work on an album project that
will consist of mostly new music. The project is currently called
"2025 Music Adventure."
I will likely pull in a few instrumentals I composed and recorded
over the last couple years for theatre productions at
Dayton Theatre Guild,
and I will also reach back into my youth for a song or two, or more,
that I wrote circa my twenties and/or thirties. The working title
for this album project is "The 2025 Music Adventure,"
because, as I stated in late 2024, having "project" and
"2025" in the same phrase is ugly and unpalatable to me.
Two collections of music that have been in the can for a while are
on the docket for mastering.
- one is a double album with much electronic, experimental,
and new-age type music on it, which I recorded in the mid 1980s.
I'll also add a bass line to one song, and may add some
instrumentation to other songs, as well.
- the other is ambient-sound music, which was recorded in
2016 for use as
preshow music
for the Dayton Playhouse
production of
George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead™ Live.
This one was remastered for use as
production music
in the Wednesday's Child
mounting, which ran at The Guild
in November of 2023. However, I'll likely revisit the remastering
before I decide about releasing the collection.
Meanwhile, click

release, Virtually Approximate Subterfuge, which came out in
November of 2022.

Dayton Theatre Guild:
in the 2024/2025 season.
- I am designing sound for two of the remaining shows for
this current
24/25 season:
- The Minutes, by Tracey Letts,
(in rehearsal now) which I am producing and Melissa Ertsgaard
is directing (running Jan 31-Feb 16, 2025)
- Chancers, by Robert Massey,
which Marjorie Strader is directing, and, again, I am producing
(showing Mar 28-Apr 13, 2025)
Dayton Playhouse
in the 2024/2025 season.
- I have another production this season:
- The Cure, by
Alex Dremann,
which won
FutureFest 2024
last July, and gets a full production that shows March 14-23,
2025. This one will be an easy gig for two reasons: 1) the
script doesn't demand an abundance or a complexity of
sounds; 2) I was the sound designer for FF24 so I already
have the design program file as well as the sound files. All
that will be needed now is any tweaking that might come up,
but the overwhelming bulk of the work is done.

Dayton Theatre Guild:
in the 2024/2025 season.
- As mentioned above, I'm the
producer
for two shows at my home theatre this current 24/25 season:
This is two productions in a row that I'm producing, but that
shouldn't prove to be too tasking.

I currently am working, on and off, on drafts of my
two-act play,
which I've been writing for a while. Draft 5g was submitted to a
new play festival, but was not selected as a finalist. More
submissions will happen. I am now working on draft 7.
There's also my novel manuscript, started about twenty years back,
which has had a finished draft for almost as long. It's in the same
universe as the play mentioned above, but takes place earlier. I
haven't actively worked on the novel in years, barely at all since
I came back to theatre. I am trying to gear myself up to go back in
for some revision
and polishing. I have no clue when that will happen, but the agenda
item is back there, lurking, waiting....
