There's something genuinely thrilling - and unsettling - about Semaphore Theatre's world premiere of the play Doing Time. First off, it's unapologetically hard-core sci-fi. Second, it's a stage piece more interested in ideas that character.
"A stunning survey of the latest evidence for intelligent life on Mars. Mac Tonnies brings a thoughtful, balanced and highly accessible approach to one of the most fascinating enigmas of our time."
--Herbie Brennan, author of Martian Genesis and The Atlantis Enigma
"Tonnies drops all predetermined opinions about Mars, and asks us to do the same."
--Greg Bishop, author of Project Beta
"I highly recommend the book for anyone interested in the search for extra-terrestrial artifacts, and the political intrigues that invariably accompany it."
--David Jinks, author of The Monkey and the Tetrahredron
"Mac Tonnies goes where NASA fears to tread and he goes first class."
--Peter Gersten, former Director of Citizens Against UFO Secrecy

good revue...not having the opportunity to see the play I don't know how the Dylan songs are used, but Tangerine Dream is always a welcome treat for mood or background.
Congratulations Mac & Nick!
I wish I could be there to see it. I support you both wholeheartedly.
Mazel Tov!*
*This is the first usage ever of a spontaneous and sincere Mazel Tov! that I actually performed.
Did you have trouble crossing the border, given your experience with opened mail packages?
And congrats on your's and Paul's play.
Cool. Film it and put it on Google video or something.
Good idea! Along with browser file for script (text/stage directions /etc.) actually would be cool. After all, it is the "net age" now--see what broader virtual audiences your work might thus appeal to. Eh, my 2 cents...8)
Only an "8"?!
Congrats to you both! When do I get a DVD?
Congratulations! Not a bad review for your first foray into script writing. :o)
Sorry, fucked up and said Nick instead of Paul. Sorry about that.
Congratulations Paul!
Congratulatory ephemeratic flapping of hands and wings for your "timely doing" of the play and the buzzy feedback so far, both of you!
I'll add my congrats to everyone else's. Sounds like boffo at the box-o or something! We're all eagerly awaiting the video....
