BIG HUNGRY WORLD   Catherine is a Silicon Valley billionaire who wants to use her wealth to save the world.  Peter’s one, too, but he’s young, and he doesn’t.  Howard is a movie star who really wants to direct… with time off for philanthropic jaunts to Africa.  It’s a global society, largely of their making, but that doesn’t mean they have to trot all over the globe, trying to solve its problems, does it?  Can they actually do good from platforms of such great privilege?  And is that do-gooder work really of more value than the work they did to heave themselves onto those platforms to begin with?  

a reading of BIG HUNGRY WORLD was presented salon-style in September 2013 
by Katie Baldwin Eng, with a cast that included Greg Keller, Lynne McCollough, Emma Galvin & Jeremy Beck

it was also read in the 2011 First Light Festival at Ensemble Studio Theatre

at the Lark Play Development Center and (site-specifically!) by Peculiar Works Project

all of these were directed by Emma Griffin

semi-finalist, Bay Area Playwrights Festival
