autobiographical
Matt's full name is Matthew Isaac Minnicino (he/him) Matt's plays are about Now and Then, and When They Get Together and Make Out Matt is a queer, Jewish so-and-so who lives in Manhattan, land originally belonging to the Lenni-Lenape He has won and lost some awards and things, because there are a lot of awards in the world His work has been done at some neat places, like: An art gallery basement in Chinatown, a mansion on Governor's Island, a grove in Central Park, a cottage on a lake in Maine, an old fire station on the Lower East Side, an abandoned hospital in Williamsburg, and apartments in all five boroughs, high schools, colleges, elementary schools, 10+ states, and Ireland He likes to adapt things, and has adapted a lot of things, including Chekhov (4 times), Homer, Strindberg, Ibsen, Gorky, Tolstoy, Rostand, Moliere, Aeschylus, Euripides, Sophocles, Von Kleist, poems by Rilke, the Old Testament, and more. He's created texts based on the art of Klimt, Magritte, John Singer Sargent, Lyle Ashton Harris, Helen Frankenthaler, and at least three texts for dance. Matt can fit into a television set (if it has nothing in it) Matt has an MFA, but still doesn't know what to do with it Matt has taught 6 year olds how to build with legos 16 year olds how to perform Shakespeare 21 year olds how to write plays and 56 year olds how to speak English As you read this, Matt is doing something We invite you to use your imagination to decode this riddle (Keep it clean) |
