Prince Gomolvilas

About Me

Prince Gomolvilas has been accused of narcissism, solipsism, and circumcision, and he is proud to admit that at least two of those accusations are true. His plays include BIG HUNK O' BURNIN' LOVE (East West Players, 1998), THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING (Singapore Repertory Theatre & East West Players, 2000), and the stage adaptation of MYSTERIOUS SKIN (New Conservatory Theatre Center, 2003), which have been produced around United States and in Singapore. He received the PEN Center USA Literary Award for Drama; East West Players' Made in America Award for Outstanding Artistic Achievement for the Asian Pacific Islander Community; a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts; and a screenwriting fellowship from The Chesterfield Writer's Film Project, sponsored by Paramount Pictures. He occasionally tours around the country with musician Brandon Patton as part of the storytelling, song-singing, bingo-playing duo, JUKEBOX STORIES. He teaches playwriting in USC's Master of Professional Writing Program and at East West Players' David Henry Hwang Writers Institute. He received his MFA in Playwriting and BA in Film from San Francisco State University.
