Dainty Cadaver Playwright Profiles: ROGER NASSER (Team B)

This week, we're running a series of profiles of the playwrights for Piper McKenzie's Dainty Cadaver 2012, in which they fill in the blanks in a number of outlandish and unhelpful statements we have provided.

Roger Nasser is extremely excited to be a part of the awesomeness that is Dainty Cadaver! He has appeared in many shows at The Brick – most recently in Roger Nasser Is The One Man Ten Minute The Crucible and the The Bubble Of Solace – where he is also House Manager. He has written and directed the short horror film Leviticus 26 and also has written for 8 Minute Musicals and Raw Impressions. He is currently working on the next installment of the Roger Nasser Is… series and a film script titled The Lunch Mothers. He also makes awesome gourmet treats for his little company Roger’s Crispie Treats! – Find it on Facebook! Yay Dainty Cadaver!!!!!!

1. The playwright whose work I’d most like to continue in my own words is PLAUTUS because HE NEVER GOT THE “COMMERCIAL HIT” HE DESERVED.
   
   
2. I think that theater in this country needs more INTEGRITY and less GIMMICK
   
   
3. If I could steal one character from another play and put them in my own play, it would be JEAN VALJEAN because WHY THE HELL NOT.
   
   
4. Some would describe me as the bastard love child of BERNARD and FARIDA NASSER.
   
   
5. At times I SCOFF at PEOPLE THAT CAN’T DECIDE between QUASI- enforcing NO SMOKING IN THE bathysphere OR USING collateral DAMAGE for PERSONAL GAIN and also KNOW THAT in case of EMERGENCY dandelions CAN BE SOLD for profit.
   
   
6. RISE UP! Dainty Cadaver RISE UP AND ENTERTAIN THE MASSES.
   
   
7. The one thing I think it’s important for audiences to know about me is I LIKE CARBS. A LOT.
