A year ago, we gathered for the last Script in Hand performance at the Playhouse. That evening, I introduced Mark Shanahan, a much-loved Script in Hand regular, who was to become my co-curator for the series going forward. The pandemic put the brakes on that, but now it gives me great pleasure to introduce Mark Shanahan, the co-curator and playwright!
