PAST PONY FELLOWS:

2007: Carson Kreitzer

During her PONY year, Carson finished a commission for the Guthrie Theater, BE HERE NOW, and attended the opening in Minneapolis. She also finished TINY ROOMS, her commission for Next Theatre in Chicago. She finished a draft for ENCHANTMENT, her play on Bruno Bettelheim and Temple Grandin, which was read at Stanford University and the Aurora Theatre in Berkeley through Lark's partnership with Playwrights Foundation, and at the Lark in the final readings for Playwrights' Workshop. She will continue work on this piece at JAW West and two new plays at retreats with Partial Comfort Productions and the Lark at New York Stage and Film. She also started work with collaborator Erin Kamler on RUNWAY 69, a musical set in that notorious strip-club on the eve of the Times Square cleanup. The book was read at the Lark, and readings of Acts One and Two at New Dramatists. She and Erin were awarded the Loewe Award, which will support a larger workshop in the next year. Carson also signed with Bruce Ostler and Mark Orsisi at Brett Adams Ltd.
