Kirk McGee has been writing plays and screenplays for quite a while. He specializes in writing comedies. His most recent comedic work, ACTIVITY PLACE MAT, has been creating quite a bit of excitement both as a full-length play and a screenplay. The play has had incredible feedback from regional theaters including Two Rivers Theater Company and Playwrights Horizon. However, Kirk is very proud that the screenplay has reached the quarterfinals of the 2008 BlueCat Screenplay Competition, placed 2nd in the 2007 Another Sleepless Night Screenplay Contest, and 3rd place in the 2008 FilmColumbia Festival of Film Screenplay Contest. It has also had interest from Hero Picture and Madhouse Entertainment.
In 1999, Kirk’s original two man stage show, I’M WITH STUPID/STUPID’S WITH ME, penned with Dan Truman was performed at numerous theater in NYC and Philadelphia. A scene from the play was featured in the scene anthology The Best Stage Scenes of 1999 (rushed to publication in 2001.) Kirk and Dan recently teamed up to write the action comedy screenplay CLEARLY MISUNDERSTOOD.
Kirk has also written a number of one-act plays and was a staff writer-performer for the NYC sketch comedy group LIVING ROOM LIVE. He has written, produced, and acted in many short films independently and in partnership with UNEVEN DISTRIBUTION. He is currently working hard developing another screenplay, and a one man clown show.
