Orloff, who is based in New York City but has not had a New York pro- duction, has seen his works produced in many smaller theaters. Affiliated with the Association for Jewish Theatre, which will have its interna- tional conference hosted by JET in May, Orloff will lead a forum for play- wrights. Orloff's award-winning works include Advanced Chemistry (2002 Pickering Award for Playwriting Excellence), Domestic Tranquility (1999 Theatre Conspiracy New Play Contest) and Love Sucks (1994 Playwrights First Award). "I generally write comedy, but there are serious moments within that:' Orloff says. "One thing I love about being a playwright is that you don't have to typecast yourself. I let the idea determine whether it will be come- dic or not, but I like to think there is humor in almost anything."

Rich Orloff's Oy! — directed by Mary Bremer and also featur- ing Arthur Beer, Aral Gribble, Laurel Hufano and Aaron Moore — runs April 29-May 24 at the Jewish Community Center in West Bloomfield. "It's really a funny show, and who needs more tsuris?" says Rosenthal, who has performed with the Michigan Opera Theatre and worked at clubs and resorts in New York. "Even the rehearsals have been fun." Orloff, whose comedy has been produced by Jewish theaters across the country, will be in Michigan in the middle of May to answer audience questions after at least one perfor- mance. "I really don't know exactly where the characters come from:' the play- wright says. "Every now and then, an idea just pops into my head. "I remember walking down the street one day and imagining the dia- logue between an about-to-be-born baby and a couple of workers putting the baby together, which became [the playlet] last-Minute Adjustments: I was amused by the situation, fanta- sized about what might happen and wrote it down." The 13 skits in Oy! include one about Adam and Eve and another about Yom Kippur observed by a boy who went through an entire year with- out any sins. Orloff, an Oberlin College gradu- ate and reporter in Arkansas before becoming a playwright, says he's learned about dramatic projects through trial and error over 20 years. "I've been writing since I learned how to spell;' he explains. "I wrote a comic strip when I was a little kid. In high school, I did a revue. "Most of my plays don't have Jewish themes.
