Biography

Rosemary Frisino Toohey has had more than 360 productions of her work produced on four continents. While making people laugh is a driving force, 11 of her comedies are now published, she's also written award-winning dramas on school shootings, the Holocaust, and the life of a garbageman. Writing in an anthropomorphic vein has become a real niche. She's given angst and human preoccupations to cockroaches, starlings, socks (left behind in a dryer), fruit (facing decay in a fruit bowl), and lobsters (about to be cooked in a restaurant.) An Audience Favorite at the British Theatre Challenge in London, she also won the Italian American Theatre of Chicago's First Playwright Competition, the Baltimore Playwrights Festival three times, and one of her screenplays is now published in the Artemis Arts Wisdom Anthology. Her one-act on racism premiered in the Columbus Black Theatre Festival in Ohio and was published in the online quarterly, Fleas On The Dog. Frisino Toohey is a member of The Dramatists Guild of America and SAG/AFTRA. There's more at https://www.frisinotoohey.com.
