'If you have never heard of Merely Players, you need to brush up on your local theatrical incandescence because this edgy acting troupe doesn't rely on bright lights and backdrops to pull off a breathtaking show.' -Ashley Sollars, News 4U Maga

About me: Merely Players is an award-winning, Kentucky-based, not-for-profit repertory theatre company. We are committed to producing contemporary plays and musicals in non-traditional venues while providing essential outlets for both the experimental thespian and the adventurous theatergoer.
Merely Players is taking the show on the road. It is performing in your living room. It is performing in your hangout. Merely Players is the stuff that myths are made of. It breaks the rules and takes theatre out of the theatre. It challenges the audience to kick it out. It sends rats through your sewer. It makes you uncomfortable because you never know where it will be next or what it will be next. It takes the things you are comfortable with, sets them on fire, and throws them in your face. It is a rock show in your bedroom with the lights out. It is an index of explosions. It is live and it is here and it is now.
Who I'd like to meet: Rusty Warren, Jason Aaron Goldberg, Joshua James, Joseph Scrimshaw, Del Shores, Eve Ensler, cool theatre peeps, musicians, gypsies and other freaks.

Recently, I added a new song to my music player called, "Always" which might be one of the best songs I've written so far. Tthe chorus was scored for an entire violin section, however, in studio, I had one violinist, Jan "Yes I Can" Sullins. I asked her to single handedly create the sound of a "Hollywood style" string section. This is almost like telling someone, "Please jump rope one handed 10 times while monkeys nip at your feet."
Lucky for me, Jan worked some magic and now you can hear it for yourself. So can you do me a favor? For the sake of Jan and her "can do" attitude, please check out "Always," track 1 in my music player. It's from my upcoming album, "Awakening," which will be released June 16th. Better yet, add it to your playlist if you like it.
Well the word from the Writers Guild of Great Britain is that Graham Farrow is looking forward to his arrival in Owensboro in two weeks time, but that may just be an ugly rumour...
