Words Never Spoken (ePub)

Craig Stewart is one of America’s most talented young playwrights. His debut stage production, A Day in the Life, finished a successful run in Atlanta and established Stewart as one of the nation’s up and coming
artists.

The first in his immediate family to graduate from college, Stewart attended Hampton University, where he received a degree in liberal arts. Originally a native of Baltimore, Stewart moved to Atlanta over a decade ago with dreams of making it in the music industry.

He turned his attention to writing and, in 2002, his first play, A Day in the Life, opened at Atlanta’s 14th Street Playhouse.

The show’s original running was cut short by a lack of funding and Stewart’s personal battles with depression. In 2004, Stewart founded his own greeting card company, Say It in a Card, LLC. It was through Say It in a Card that he eventually met someone eager to sponsor a second run of A Day in the Life. The new production opened in 2007 to a sale out crowd at the Balzer Theater and was quickly hailed as a powerful artistic statement regarding the emotional and societal pressures experienced by gay African American men. Born out of Stewart’s own personal struggles to find love and a sense of self- understanding as a gay man, A Day in the Life touched the hearts and minds of audience members and rapidly won Stewart praise from critics and publications like Southern Voice and DAVID magazine. Riding the momentum of the plays success in Atlanta, Stewart is currently poised to take the show on a national tour in hopes of spreading awareness about the plight of gay African American men and those infected with HIV. He also hopes to empower others while he dispels myths about the homosexual community and educates audiences to help prevent the spread of HIV and AIDS.
