WHAT'S GOING ON

Jake is  returning to the stage with another one-person show, You're Not Allowed to Ask Me That at the Tank in NYC. After successful one-off performances with Emerging Artists Theatre Co. and Chestnut Street Playhouse, Jake is excited for a three-night run April 7th, 8th, & 9th. More information can be found here. 

​

Jake's piece Any Other Day was a finalist in the Chestnut Street Playhouse 2nd Annual New Play Festival this past September. The play received a staged reading in CT as a part of the festival. In December of 2022, Any Other Day went on to receive a fully-staged production at Broward College in Florida. This was Jake's first full-length show to receive a production.

​

In July of 2022, Jake traveled to Baltimore to film a short film based on his play Emergency Contact. The film has been completed and will be entering film festival around the country in the coming months- let Jake know if you would like to be one of the first to see it!

Jake returned to the stage in June 2022 with his one-man show entitled Knock It Off, I Love You. Chronicling the worst fight he ever experienced with his father, this piece explores growing up, conflict, and sandwiches in this auto-biographical account.

In February 2022, Jake self-produced a staged reading of his piece Yland, along with director Rachel Bertone. In the same weekend, Jake's one-minute play It Was, You Know, What It Was, was featured in the One Moment in Time One-Minute Play Festival. At the end of the month, Emergency Contact was voted Audience Favorite at the SPF at the Player's Theatre. 

​

In November 2020, Jake partnered with friend and artist Tom Mezger on a short, virtual play called Forgive Me. Told through a series of videos on a fundraising page, Forgive Me is about loss, guilt, and what happens when our private lives become public. Check out the full video here.
