How we're giving back
Aging is difficult, but being kept from your true love is harder.
Forgotten Artist Productions was proud to present our theatre production as part of the 2017 Planet Connections Theatre Festivity during the summer of 2017!
FIFTEEN MINUTES WITH ELLEN
written by Andrew Selig
Mr. Weatherington struggles in a nursing home with aging, loneliness, and perhaps Alzheimer’s or dementia. The nurses care for Walter, but this is challenging as he has a difficult time identifying between reality and imagination. What is sacrificed to spend 15 minutes each day with his true love Ellen?

Forgotten Artist Productions is a production company based in New York that develops and produces creative and artistic work and projects for theatre and film. FAP has produced WHERE ART LIVES (theatre), “Eliminated” (theatre and short film), and “Thumb Wrestler” (short film).
nytheatre.com wrote this about director Michael Thomas Cain’s work, “Cain’s script is sharp and subtle…Cain also does a fine job directing a talented cast of two…Together their onstage chemistry reeks of commitment to these odd characters…Enough’s Enough is good fringe theater. It is fresh, dark and out of the ordinary. FringeNYC is good for finding bold new voices and performers. This show delivers both.”

Fostering a diverse cross-section of performances and events, the Planet Connections Theatre Festivity seeks to inspire artists and audiences both creatively and fundamentally, in a festive atmosphere forming a community of like-minded artists.

NO ARTIST LEFT BEHIND
Every season (fall, winter, spring, and summer), for the entire season, we put the spotlight on an artist on our website and all of our social media. We present them and their creative work. That's why we're here. That's why Forgotten Artist Productions was started. We feature artists who work in theatre, film, video, visual art, photography, literature, music, etc.
(The No Artist Left Behind project is on hiatus.)
