About the Author
Playwright, Screenwriter, Director, and Producer
In 2006 Bethel founded "The Garden Of Eden Productions (GOEP)", a community theater, media arts, and film production company that has recruited many men, woman, young adults and children from the Philadelphia area into a program that offers the stage or the screen as a vehicle of expression. The GOEP encourages people of all ages in surrounding communities and neighborhoods to direct their energy towards the art form of theatrics, multi media, film, and dance in their own productions, while learning to write, produce, and direct pieces that resemble their lives and the lives of those around them.
In December 2009, she published her first book, "Hot Buttered Biscuits And Jam" The Memoirs Of Seven, where a down trodden woman analyzes, love, friendship, faith, forgiveness, and the long time destructive relationship she has with her husband of seventeen years and how it mirrors the relationships of the women who have proceeded her in her family.
In July 2012, after two long years, her second book, "InSignificantly Unique" was successfully released and she began to write and produce a triage of stage productions, to include, "Darkest B4 Dawn", "SCORNED", "BLOCKERS", A Man in't Supposed To Cry", and 2018 Spiral Award winner "A Father's Son".
Bethel affiliates herself with organizations such as:
Womens Playwright Group of Washington DC and Writers
Guild of Maryland.
