Stan Zimmerman on THE GOLDEN GIRLS, GILMORE GIRLS, & YES, VIRGINIA

Stan Zimmerman is a playwright who has two events coming up at Owens Auditorium inside Bradshaw Performing Arts Center, both of which will be presented by Judson Theatre Company in Pinehurst, North Carolina. On November 14th, he’ll be sharing some behind the scenes stories from his days of working as a writer on the first season of THE GOLDEN GIRLS in an event titled AN EVENING ON THE LANAI. Meanwhile, a new holiday comedy he co-wrote with Christian McLaughlin titled YES, VIRGINIA starring Mindy Sterling & Arnetia Walker will be running from November 18th-21st. I had the great pleasure of interviewing him about all of this and more.

He also directs and produces theatre in L.A., including such productions as the LatinX THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK, HEARTBREAK HELP, PLEDGE, WARM CHEESE, ENTERTAINING MR. SLOANE, BLINK & YOU MIGHT MISS ME, GEMINI, and the virtual three play reading benefit for Playbill.com, A WENDY WEEKEND. In television, he has been nominated for two WGA Awards for his work on THE GOLDEN GIRLS and ROSEANNE. He’s also written and produced on GILMORE GIRLS, co-created the Lifetime sitcom RITA ROCKS, and the Emmy nominated webseries SECS & EXECS. He was the host/showrunner on Sean Hayes’ Bravo reality show SITUATION: COMEDY. In film, he wrote both BRADY BUNCH movies. Most recently, he starred in a virtual production of his suicide notes play, RIGHT BEFORE I GO, with Vanessa Williams, Blair Underwood, Wilson Cruz, and Hari Nef for the Quick Center in Connecticut.

AN EVENING ON THE LANAI will be presented at Owens Auditorium inside Bradshaw Performing Arts Center on November 14th while Judson Theatre Company’s production of YES, VIRGINIA will run from November 18th-21st. For more information, please visit:
