"ALUMINUM FEVER"

LOGLINE:  Cross-country tale of love lost and found in an Airstream travel trailer during the Great Recession of 2009

"Aluminum Fever" is a novel that is at once a postcard from the edge, a tale of travel and misadventure and a quest for meaning in the modern world.  It’s a love story with attitude and a sometimes humorous commentary about the blandification of America.  If you would like to read an excerpt from "ALUMINUM FEVER", click here.

 

"KACHINA DREAMS"

LOGLINE:  A reluctant Native American "wannabe" gets caught in a deadly tug-of-war over a polluted Indian burial site, destined for incineration by a corrupt EPA administrator.

This engrossing environmental drama tells the story of an average, complacent citizen who gets inadvertently involved in a worldly and mystical struggle over one of the most disastrously polluted sites in the U.S., which local Indians believe to be an ancient burial ground.

Available as both a novel and a screenplay.

"REQUIEM FOR THE ANCIENT ONES"
LOGLINE:  Media Theatre production told from the perspective of a deceased tribe of American Indians, each passing on the story of their lives from the Great Beyond. 

While each component in this anthology stands on its own, the separate narratives that comprise the piece are woven together by humor, drama and a common universal thread.  Not unlike Edgar Lee Masters' "Spoon River Anthology", in which the people of a turn-of-the-century town pass judgment on each other, share opinions and generally comment on each other's lives from the grave, the result is a unique, earthy wisdom that resonates from a far different time and place, to all races in the here and now of contemporary society.

"THE DOLMEN"
Dolmen art
Entertaining, non-documentary, non-horror, non-"Harry and the Hendersons" screenplay that dramatically positions Bigfoot as the missing link.

 

 

"THE COYOTE AND THE THUNDERBIRD"
Coy & T-Bird art
This is a tender parable of a wandering coyote, who learns a lesson about warmth from his whale brothers.  It's a tale for all ages and meant to be read aloud.  Although created originally for children in the style of Native American folklore, this charming story has as much to say to adults as it does to kids.

 

In addition to the above, Bob has also developed four concepts for a groundbreaking new form of theatre he calls "Media Theatre", which combines the stage and film experience for the audience. 

 

 

I am currently seeking representation for all of this work.
