Once a highly regarded editor and proofreader for such legendary New York ad shops at J. Walter Thompson, Bates USA, and Rosenfeld, Sirowitz & Lawson, and an editor with CBS Publications-Field & Stream, Ron Micci now gads about as a roguish but mild-mannered suburban flautist, playwright, screenwriter and novelist.
His plays have been performed at First Stage in LA, and in New York at the Kraine Theatre, Theatre-Studio, Producers Club, Time Square Arts Center, Riant Theatre, as well as in conjunction with the New York Int'l Independent Film & Video Festival and the Turnip Theatre Company's 15-Minute Play Festival.
They have also been presented in New Jersey at the Darress Theater, 1860 House (Montgomery Cultural Center), Lawrenceville Library, as well as in the main branch of the Canton, Ohio public library.
Sappho's Kiss was staged in Manhattan by the AlphaNYC Theater Company in the Time Square Arts Center as part of "Skirtz," an evening of one-act plays, in February 2017.
Acting editions of his grammar farce/crime drama Night and the Proofreader, and his soliloquy Addie & Me are available from Brooklyn Publishers (). Addie is also available from Heuer Publishing.
Three satirical novels, Coyote Horny, Apocalypse on Broadway, and The Bayou Katt Murders are available in both Kindle and paperback format on . A number of his other plays are also available on Amazon, including Biff Bang, American Hero (33 witty, satirical one-act plays and sketches), Moonlight's Little Madness (a Victorian aristocratic werewolf spoof in three acts), The Gill People of Outerborough Queens (a radio farce), and Dark Snow (a collection of poignant soliloquies and duets). The can also be freely sampled on the Booksie website.
He has an avowed passion for flutes, piccolos and detective novels, and an aversion to tubas, brass instruments and things that go bump in the night.
Unique traits: Equally adept at writing sharp, wickedly satirical material and deeply emotional, poetic fare.
