“Follow The Money: A Modern Fairy Tale” to be produced in California

My short one-act FOLLOW THE MONEY: A MODERN FAIRY TALE is being produced August 7 in Davis, California at a theatre camp that I believe is connected with the University of California-Davis (at least the director is, I know that much).

This will be the second production of that script, which won an audience award the first time out:

FOLLOW THE MONEY: A MODERN FAIRY TALE
A precocious youth attempts to find the secret to the tooth fairy — by kidnapping her. Where do all those teeth come from? And the money? Cast: Six — two female, four male. Running time: Fifteen minutes.
* Produced at New Voices Play Festival, Old Opera House Theatre, Charles Town, W.Va., June 2013; voted best in show by audience vote.

You can find photos from that show here and more here.

Also: There’ll be an encore production of THE SKY IS FALLING in Mankato, Minnesota on August 25.
