A graduate of the U.C. Davis drama department, Rick's plays were twice selected to be a part of the Undergraduate Playwright's Festival, an annual showcase of the school's three top plays and he twice represented Davis at the U.C. intercollegiate arts festival.
Now, after a successful scholastic run, Rick Robinson is an award-winning Los Angeles area playwright and director. The six plays he has penned deal with the social down-sides and benefits of the Internet, the common absurdity of office politics, and the dehumanizing effect of big business. His dramas are raw and his tragedies balance with comedy, all differing in tone, with a united theme: the human struggle to find lasting emotional connections.
Rick's plays have been selected to be a part of the Los Angeles Edge of the World Festival five times and his plays have received four Backstage West critic's picks (/Asymmetry/, /i r l (in real life/), /School of Jesus Fish/, /SAP/), two L.A. weekly 'go' picks (/Asymmetry/, /Spare Parts & Cynic/) and one L.A. times recommended pick (/Asymmetry/).
