Pioneer Drama Service Playwright Receives Honor

Award-winning San Diego playwright Janet S. Tiger has been chosen as Swedenborg Hall's first Playwright-in-Residence, announced Rev. Carla Friedrich, pastor of the Swedenborgian Church, at last weekend's University Heights Arts Open (UHAO).     "We are excited to have Janet in our Artist-in-Residency Program – next year's schedule will have San Diego premieres of Janet's work - including a world premiere of her newest play, THE END OF DEATH, for next summer," added Friedrich, who noted that Tiger's play, THE TOWEL LADY, was one of the main attractions at last weekend's UHAO and introduced many  theatergoers to the new program. Tiger, whose one-woman show, RENNY'S STORY, was produced at Swedenborg  Hall to sold-out houses last May, was delighted to accept the honor.  "I'm so pleased to be the first Playwright-in-Residence in the Swedenborg Artists program and look forward to working with D.J. Sullivan again (D.J. was the executive producer of THE TOWEL LADY).  We  go back many years, as my very first play was read at a (local play-reading) Scripteaser meeting – which took place at D.J.'s house in 1980!" D. J. Sullivan, of Hollywood and Broadway fame, has been involved in productions for 50 years at Swedenborg Hall (with 4 plays next year), added that, as part of the program, Janet will be able to use actors in D.J.'s well-known workshop to help develop THE END OF DEATH, a play about the future of the world -starring 6.5 billion people.   Janet S. Tiger's plays have been published and produced internationally, and her THIRD PARTY was a San Diego Drama Critics Circle Nominee for Best Play.  Recent awards included an unprecedented 5th win in the DFAS National One-Act Playwriting Contest - the oldest independent one-act contest in the country.  Among her published plays are THE TOWEL LADY and THE AFFIDAVIT in anthologies by Meriwether Press and BLIND WOMAN'S BLUFF by Pioneer Drama Service. The Swedenborg Hall Residency Program's most recent artist was Patricia Parker Ortlieb, whose work is on permanent display at the Riverside Museum.  "The Swedenborgian Church of San Diego has been a strong supporter of the arts since 1883.   We hope to add other  areas, such as film and dance, to our residency program," said Friedrich," as part of a continuing involvement in the arts community." 9 application/xml false biography blind Janet one act play playwright poem San Diego Tiger woman's bluff BLIND WOMAN'S BLUFF by Janet S.
