About the Book

Richard Weill tells the story of his play Framed, and its eight-year journey from conception to the page to the stage. A stage thriller, Framed was Weill's ninth full-length play, but his first full production. Read the story, then the play - in one volume. Weill provides detailed and fascinating insight into precisely how he set out to tackle what Ira Levin (author of Deathtrap, the longest running thriller in the history of Broadway) called "that trickiest and most demanding of genres," and create a thriller that was credible and meaningful as well as original. Relive the exact moment he conceived the ironic, shocking, yet inevitable ending to Framed. See how Weill implemented an off-Broadway director's advice that he "play with time." And once production begins, witness how a playwright negotiates the delicate balance between maintaining the integrity of his work and serving as a cooperative collaborator with his play's director, cast, and production team. What the critics said about Framed Ventura Breeze "The script is engaging, entertaining, highly credible, and well worth your time. ... the script bears an uncommon authenticity, as well as being literate, concise and cogent." Ventura County Star "Framed offers a killer performance that will keep audience guessing." "Framed was a hit. ... No play on our South Stage has received the standing-room-only audience numbers that Framed delivered." - Tom Eubanks, Artistic Director, Elite Theatre Company, Oxnard, California
About the Author: Richard Weill, a practicing lawyer and former prosecutor in Westchester County, New York, has been writing plays since 1976. In 2016, his legal thriller Framed premiered in Oxnard, California to critical acclaim, standing-room-only audiences, and a run extended by popular demand. His play Sisters, suggested by an unsolved 1966 murder, starts in the present and moves backwards scene-by-scene to tell the story of how a crime changed a prominent family - and why. Besides Sisters and Framed, Mr. Weill has written a fictional version of Agatha Christie's 1926 disappearance (Imperfect Alibi), a comedy-drama set in 1950's New York about the 23-year collaboration of two mystery writers (Hardbound); a thriller about adultery and betrayal (The Other Woman), a two-character thriller (Seed of Doubt), and an evening of three short plays about crime and crime writers (Constant Companions). In addition, Mr. Weill has written two plays about young artists (Emergence of the Soul; The Unframed Canvas), a political comedy (Another County Heard From), a one-man play (This ... Is Murrow), an allegory about baseball's Black Sox scandal (And the Echo Answered Fraud), a play set in the New York Civil Jail (This Little World), a musical version of Waiting for Godot (The Vaudevillians), and a screenplay about a baseball broadcaster (The Voice of Summer). He is a member of the Dramatists Guild.
