Robert Moulthrop Bio

Robert Moulthrop is a playwright, novelist and the author of more than 25 short stories. 

           

Lecture, With Cello is his third play produced in the New York Fringe Festival.

His full-length play Half Life (about the pedophile coming home to wife, family, and community after serving his prison sentence . . . “He’s coming home after serving his two years for touching that girl; I just want everything to be the same.”) won the award for Outstanding Playwriting at the 2005 New York International Fringe Festival, was a Top 10 Pick of the Fringe (New York Times), and was called “the best written and acted play at the Fringe” by New York Magazine. 

            His one-woman dramatic play T.L.C. (about a mother who will do literally anything to keep her son from leaving her) was selected for the 10th Anniversary 2006 New York Fringe Festival, where it won the Outstanding Performance Award for its actress.

            His three-character comedy, Who Cares, had a reading under the aegis of Urban Stages in New York, and a reading in Los Angeles. His political revue, Where We Are Now, about the effects of the Patroit Act on individuals and our liberties, is being considered by two San Francisco-area theatres, among others. His short plays have been seen at Vital Theatre, at the First Downtown Arts Festival, and at Mottola Theatre Company's Cherry Picking events. 

            His short stories have been published in such journals as San Jose Studies, Old Hickory, and The MacGuffin.  His two novels are currently working to secure him a literary agent.

            He is a graduate of Brandeis University (BA, Music), and the Catholic University of America (MA, Theatre).  He began writing seriously during his time as a commuter from Princeton, NJ to New York City.  He lives and works in New York City and is a member of The Writers Room.
