The Foxhole Stories: Twist, Pull, Smoke, Run-Motherfucker-Run!

I’m so excited to announce that a new play that I co-wrote with my boyfriend is getting its world premier in Hollywood, at the Hollywood Fringe Festival! I just graduated college a month ago, and now, I’m in my own play, in Los Angeles!

Twist, Pull, Smoke, Run-Motherfucker-Run! is the first play in our planned Foxhole Stories play series, that will encompass every phase of the American Veteran experience.

Twist, Pull, Smoke, Run-Motherfucker-Run is based on the conversations that Mr. Domenico had with two Marines from his former unit. He spoke with them not only about their common memories of Afghanistan, but about their experience acclimating back into civilian life. These two marines inspired this play. Twist, Pull, Smoke, Run-Motherfucker-Run! is the story of a combat veteran who evades his concerned girlfriend’s questions about his tour in Afghanistan, and instead argues with his relentless, ever-present PTSD. From Veteran to dependent alike, this project is driven by a cast that has all been touched personally by the Military community. This piece demonstrates the difficulty of living with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and, simply and brilliantly, exposes a veteran’s innermost thoughts.

We have a fantastic, talented director, Chris Game, to direct our play, and he has some tricks up his sleeve that will leave the audience shocked! My boyfriend, ex-marine Matthew and I are playing two of the three characters in the play. Rounding out the cast is Brock Joseph, who is a tremendously talented actor from Southern California, who is also a Navy veteran. He plays the character of PTSD, and brings a threatening, yet charismatic energy that you won’t want to miss! The rest of our team includes Zac Diamond, our media director, Joe King (Army Veteran) our stage manager, and Renee Parham King (Army Veteran).
