The Joys of Filing, and Adventures in Philly
This past week Bill D’Agostino, my fellow intern and a recent graduate of Villanova’s theater program, and I have been industriously re-organizing the filing system, which has proved to be a mammoth task! Between the two of us we have waded through all the paperwork that has ever been involved in PlayPenn: stacks of contracts, receipts from playwrights buying Snickers bars in Iowa gas stations, and airplane tickets. Filing brings its own joys, however, and it was very satisfying in the end to see the cacophony of paperwork tamed into neat categories and folders!
Last Thursday we took a break from hanging folders and labels, and embarked in Bill’s car on a mad-cap expedition around Center City. Under conditions of high winds and scorching heat, we wove through traffic to deliver piles of PlayPenn brochures to theaters. Here are a couple of photos I took to document the journey…

And I picked one up at Wilma last night – while attending “Leaving.”
Thanks for blogging!
