David Ives is perhaps best known for All In The Timing (he has been included in the “Best Short Plays” series multiple times), and for his drama Venus In Fur, which was nominated for a Tony Award for Best Play. His plays include New Jerusalem: The Interrogation Of Baruch De Spinoza, The School For Lies (adapted from Molière’s The Misanthrope); The Liar (adapted from Corneille), Time Flies and Is He Dead? (adapted from Mark Twain). He has also translated Feydeau’s A Flea In Her Ear and Yasmina Reza’s A Spanish Play.

Most recently, Ives wrote the book for Here We Are, the final musical with a score by multi-award-winning composer Stephen Sondheim.
