Growing up in New York City, seeing plays, both musicals and not, were a part of steady family diet. So were opera, ballet, and concerts.
Trainin Blank has been writing about theater and the performing arts -- either in reviews or previews -- for more decades than she'd care to admit. She is also a practitioners: several of Trainin Blank's short plays have been workshopped or given staged readings; two full-length plays have been produced, and three have been published.
Trainin Blank moved to the DC area in 2013. She's a member of the Playwrights Alliance of Pennsylvania and the Alliance of Jewish Theatre.
