The Aquetong Table

A Screenplay Table Read podcast. It's like Movies for your Ears... Have you ever told someone a story or an idea, only to have them stop you midway through by saying "You know...this should really be a movie."? Or maybe you have an amazing idea for a film or a television show...and you just don't have the time or the motivation to make it real. I turn people's ideas and stories into screenplay reality. The Aquetong Table is a podcast dedicated to showcasing screenplays I've written with private clients via the "table read" format. It's a great way to discover both unproduced work as well as new voices from the continually changing cast of students. Enjoy!

Series Pilot..."LONGY: Ruff der Langer (Call the Tall One)"

Potential series follows the life and crimes of New Jersey mobster Abner "Longy" Zwillman, reputed mob boss and political lynchpin extraordinaire to the likes of Al Capone, Meyer Lansky, and Lucky Luciano. A classic rags-to-riches story, Zwillman's story is an otherwise unearthed gem in the mines of organized crime biopics. This episode consists of an interview with my collaboration client who brought me the story, as well as a table read of the pilot episode which brings the young Longy Zwillman to the gates of the Newark underworld.
