Once the producer and the director took over our 3T peace play, as playwright I was "not allowed" to even attend rehearsals, but I found myself in meetings almost every day during rehersals with those two, James Flood and Arthur Strimling, as well as with Stage Director Alison Miculan, Artistic Director Cheryl Wood and frequently with the financial backers of the premiere run who seemed to need constant reassurance about the work and abilities of those professionals. I also shared in � meetings with New York state police with respect to widespread anxiety over security regarding the “appearance” of Muhammad in this play.
