It's no secret that Georgia's film industry has exploded in recent years.  As a result of the tax credit the state offers filmmakers, Georgia has become the world's largest producer of film.   Last year alone, the film industry generated nearly $10 billion dollars for Georgia's economy. Filmmaking has added over 90,000 jobs in our state and with economic success like that, it's clear that film is here to stay.

Recently, I had the opportunity to chat with Atlanta playwright Topher Payne about his new show, Greetings Friend Your Kind Assistance is Required, premiering at Georgia Ensemble Theater on January 5 and running through the 22nd.

Without further ado, Topher Payne!
