Bob Jude Ferrante

About me:

Bob's evening Twinges played in New York City Fall 2002 and garnered kudos from the NY press. His short Scene Analysis for Fun & Profit was a finalist for the Actors Theatre of Louisville Heideman Award and, along with his short Men's, has been produced in festivals everywhere from Seattle to London. His full-length plays Tragedy and subCity had recent New York City runs and his play Hemlock, a Greek Diner Tragedy premiered in Dallas to critical raves. Bob's work is regularly published in the Smith and Kraus Best Stage Scenes and Best Monologues series. He was also awarded a commission by Praxis Theatre Project in New York City which resulted in his play The New Life.
Bob's latest play to reach the NY stage will be A New Theory of Vision, to run March 18 - April 11 2009, Wed-Sat at 8pm at the Kraine Theater, 85 E 4th Street, NYC. Tickets are $18 and available from Smarttix (http://www.smarttix.com/show.aspx?showCode=NEW156 or call 212-868-4444).
Bob is also a minor music composer who has written over 200 songs. His plays Hemlock, a Greek Diner Tragedy, The Buffoon Piece, Flowers of War and The New Life include some of these songs.
Bob also currently serves as Managing Director of Sanctuary: Playwrights Theatre, a New York City-based coalition of playwright/producers. The company recently produced the Six Nights site-specific series and Food for Fish by Adam Szymkowicz, which garnered favorable reviews from The New York Times and The New Yorker.
