Larry Kunofsky

Larry Kunofsky is a NYC-based playwright whose play The Un-Marrying Project, about a protest movement devoted to legalizing same-sex marriage in New York City, was produced last April (through PURPLE REP), before same-sex marriage was made legal in New York State. He makes absolutely no claim whatsoever towards helping this social movement move forward, but is delighted that his play has now become a “period piece.” He hopes to tour that show, so look for it in other states around the country… at some point. His ongoing play-cycle-in-progress, THE GENESIS TAPESTRIES is a multiple-play-cycle inspired by The Book of Genesis. He has been a three-time winner of the John Golden Award for Drama and a resident at the Edward Albee Foundation. His work has been excerpted in the 2009 editions of The Best Men’s and Best Women’s Stage Monologues and Scenes, published by Smith & Kraus, and his full-length play What To Do When You Hate All Your Friends – an anti-social comedy, will be published by Playscripts later this year. He is a member of The Dramatists Guild and the Artistic Director of Purple Rep, a small, independent theatre company devoted to building a repertory company of playwrights. Special thanks to Adam Szymkowicz for hooking him up with The Management. He is THRILLED to be working with The Management, and is deeply grateful to Megan, Nicole, Josh, Other Josh, Gabriel, and most especially, to Meg, whose wonderful passion, expansive vision, always-positive energy, and all-around brilliance and loveliness have made this production not just possible, but also magnificent.
