William Paterson University Premiers New Play,
"9 Months: Inside Out," from February 25 to March 5
William Paterson University in Wayne will present a new production
of “9 Months: Inside Out,” a new comedy by West Orange
playwright S.W. Senek, from February 25 to March 5 in the Hunziker
Black Box Theatre on campus. The play was the grand prize winner
in the University’s New Jersey Playwright’s Competition
held in fall 2004.
The cast is comprised of four William Paterson University students:
Brett Druck of South Orange, a freshman majoring in communication;
Travis Garcia of Boonton, a senior majoring in communication; Jennifer
Lengares of Hewitt, a senior majoring in biology; and Sue Weinberger
of Mahwah, a senior majoring in communication and women’s
studies. The production is directed by Phillip Sprayberry of Clifton,
William Paterson University media relations coordinator.
“9 Months: Inside Out” explores the ins and outs of
those precarious nine months between conception and birth as seen
through the fears and hopes of the parents-to-be and all who will
come in contact with the newborn.
Senek’s play “Outcome” was the winner of the 2003
Circle Choice Award at the Palm Springs National Short Play Festival
2003 and finalist in the 2004 Turnip Festival in New York; “Making
Room” was featured in the 2004 Seventh Annual Festival of
One-Act Plays at Theatre Three in Port Jefferson, New York. His
play “Fool Circle” received a staged reading at 12 Miles
West Theatre in 2004 and a developmental workshop production at
the Trilogy Theatre, New York. Senek is employed in the publications
department at Dramatists Play Service, Inc. He holds a B.F.A. in
theatre from Youngstown State University and is a member of the
