ORIGIN STORY

Once upon a time, a teenager named Lila Rose fell in love for the first time—with playwriting.  Her first play was a comedy called BUSY SIGNAL.  She remembers the night it debuted, standing in the back of her high school theatre listening to the audience laugh. After that holy moment, she never looked back. She wrote historical plays in college, poetic plays in grad school and comedies after she got married. She wrote superhero plays once she was a mother. At some point, she realized that all of her plays were queer and that she was queer too. Like any good heroine, Lila Rose won several sword fights and beheaded many rejection letters. Some of her plays premiered Off-Broadway and others premiered in a tiny basement theater where a rainstorm could knock out the lights.
