User:Brian Olsen

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi, this is my first stab at creating my User page, so it'll probably look awful until I have a chance to clean it up.

My name, if you hadn't guessed from my terribly clever username, is Brian Olsen. I'm a director for theatre living in New York City. I first began using Wikipedia some time ago as a research tool for shows I was working on. I recently took a closer look at it, and quickly became hooked on editing.

My primary interest is in the Doctor Who Wikiproject, with a few scattered interests elsewhere. I seem to have a developed a particular thing for fixing messy links.

Feel free to leave me messages on my talk page.

[edit] My Pages

I just created my first page, The God of Hell. It's a play by Sam Shepard. I saw the red link on the page for Shepard, and since I was assistant director for the original production, I figured I should try and tackle it. --August 21, 2005

Later the same day, I've created my second page, A Bright Room Called Day. It's a play by Tony Kushner. I recently directed a production of it, so it's fresh in my mind, and I've got the research materials lying about. --August 21, 2005

I just did a complete revamp of Gorilla Repertory Theatre Company. I didn't create the page, but I pretty much rewrote it (previously, it was really just the company's mission statement). I've worked with the company pretty extensively, but I think I've managed to keep a neutral point of view. --June 6, 2006

Created The New School for Drama, which I've been working on for a few days in my sandbox. --December 19, 2006

[edit] My Images

Well, I didn't actually make any of these images, but I uploaded them. The first three are companions from spin-off media versions of Doctor Who.
