Comments

Winning Playwright Michael "Buster" McMahon recently won an "E7 tony" award for his entry in the 48-hour play festival in Ludlow, MA. His 15 minute script OW WOW WOW received over 100 laughs. Michael's niche for comedy is genius. He has written over 48 plays, numerous sitcoms, pitched major networks, and will soon have his plays produced in Western Mass! On this episode of yWrite, Host Angela Grout interviews the award winning playwright. "Buster" describes the process of entering a 48-hour playwriting festival and just how he nailed the requirements to win the audience's vote for Best Comedy. His journey of writing Vaudeville routines has inspired him to create full length plays. His upcoming plays SANCTURARY MUCH, OH NO ANGELO, and others will be showcased in local theaters this fall as he takes on the role of Playwright in Resident at the IRONFOX STEAKHOUSE at the Somers Inn in Somers, CT, producing and directing Second Thursday Night Theaters within the newly remodeled building. Buster and Angela share what really makes his scripts standout besides the story...its the format & editing. Subscribers of yWrite will be surprised to learn who his editor is.
