Send us a textGeorge Bernard Shaw once said, "Don't wait for opportunity, create it. Geoffrey Nauffts is a Producer, a Broadway and Television Actor, a Tony-award nominated playwright and television scriptwriter, and a director. He has worked as an actor on and off Broadway, regionally, and extensively in film and television. He’s directed plays by Kenneth Lonergan, Frank Pugliese, Theresa Rebeck, Suzan-Lori Parks, and Steven Belber’s critically acclaimed Tape in New York, LA, and London. His writing credits include; Baby Steps, an award-winning short film starring Kathy Bates, Jennifer, a CBS movie of the week, Political Animals, Greg Berlanti’s Emmy-nominated mini-series for USA, and 13 seasons for ABC as a writer/producer on shows such as: Brothers and Sisters, Grand Hotel, Nashville, and A Million Little Things. His critically acclaimed play Next Fall received the Outer Critics Circle’s John Gassner Award in 2010 for Best New American Play which was nominated for a Drama League, Drama Desk, and a Tony Award. He is currently developing an original new musical with the internationally acclaimed singer/songwriter Jonatha Brooke and this month he is directing his best friend of 44 years, Michael Mastro (Season One, Episode One) in Michael's autobiographical one-man show called I WANNA BE GOOD - and I am seeing it next week. I adore these 2 men and this conversation with Geoffrey was a delight.
