director/TESTIMONIALS

"Steven was part of the team of founding producers who helped to conceive and create NYMF seven years ago. Since then, he has continued to be an important part of the Festival, producing and directing our annual Awards Gala for the last four years. With Steven at the helm, the event has always run smoothly and with great style, enabling us to successfully execute a major fund raising event only a few weeks after the close of our annual festival."

Isaac Hurwitz - Executive Director & Producer, The New York Musical Theatre Festival

 

“FLAMINGO COURT started flying and everything I could hope for happened. Steven understood the characters as well as I and he developed them with a calm and steady hand. He got the humor and pathos out of every scene and shaped the play like an artist working on a canvas. I'm happy and lucky to have worked with Steven.”

Luigi Creatore - Playwright - Off Broadway – New World Stages

 

"I worked with Steven on a new Off-Broadway Comedy, entitled FLAMINGO COURT. As you have always heard..."Comedy is tougher". With Steven's patience and guidance he turned FLAMINGO COURT into a WINNER. I look forward to working with him again.  I like to be in WINNERS.
