STAGE AND SCREEN
“Always Coming Home” (author, drama)
unproduced
Two old friends compete for the affections of an epileptic cellist.
book by Eric Pitty
music by Letslie Aguirre
The characters's actions were used as a mirror for what can happen when men do not take responsibility for privilege and lack of awareness. This play is not a wonderful escape, but rather a harsh confrontation.
…
This has a lot of commercial potential (i.e Broadway). Once this is more fleshed out, I can see this being something like THE INHERITANCE.

“Local News!” (author, comedy)
unproduced
A team of journalists drags a misfit newspaper in Austin, Texas into the digital age.
pilot by Eric Pitty
The dialogue stands out as one of the strongest elements LOCAL NEWS [sic]. These characters' voices are fairly natural and the exchanges are always well-paced.
…
Austin is long overdue to serve as the setting of a sit-com like this, and the decision to base the action of the story around a local newspaper offers a lot of opportunities for future episodes to explore.

Alamo City Improv (Co-Founder, Producer)
Alamo City Improv was an improvisational theatre company in operation from 2014-2018, founded by myself, Jeremy Zenor and Cary Farrow.
From its home base in San Antonio, Texas, the Alamo City Improv toured the US and Canada, ran weekly improv comedy shows, served as a stand up comedy venue, and offered corporate team building classes.
ACI also produced original works of theater, including Jeremy Zenor’s “Saved” which premiered at the United Solo Theater festival in New York City, 2018:
In his unflinchingly honest one-man show Saved, Jeremy Zenor strikes a universal chord of insightful contemplation as he shares stories and songs of the moments that helped shape him. Through animated characters and introspective storytelling, he finds humor and healing in abandoning his father's faith and navigating romance in the dawning of the post 9-11 era. Playing multiple instruments simultaneously, Jeremy will present his songs as a one man band as part of the United Solo Theater Festival, the largest solo performance festival in the world. Go with Jeremy on the journey as he discovers that we are not actually saved from the from the struggles of our live, but instead saved *by* them.
