From Paul Cozby:

Whether it's a high school play or a Broadway smash, for me one of life's most sublime moments is just after the lights go down and just before the curtain goes up. Theater – at any level – is the most collaborative, immediate, intimate art. I'm a theater fan, who has great respect for the actors, directors, technicians, and support staff who bring a show to life. I count it a privilege to share this passion with others through writing for and about the stage.
