Andy Hyman produced and directed his first play,
The Crusaders, in the fall of 1998, while attending Oakwood School. Hyman's one-man play,
Sanguine, was given its first workshop production in Los Angeles in 2001. The play was produced again in 2003 starring
Jeremy Sisto and directed by Jon Shear (both of whom had also been part of the original 2001 Young Playwright's Festival production) at the Second Stage Theatre in Los Angeles. According to the LA Times in an article about the production, Hyman had written the original script for
Sanguine at the age of 19.
Sanguine was also staged in New York City by the Double Helix Theatre Company, in a production directed by David Muse. In March and April 2005, a double bill of two Hyman's one-act plays,
Lies 7 and
Grand Junction, appeared at The Complex in Los Angeles. Hyman directed
Lies 7 himself, while
Grand Junction was directed by Rory C. Mitchell. In July and August 2009, Hyman's new adaptation of the 18th century play
La Dispute by Pierre Marivaux was staged at both the
Old Red Lion Theatre and
Soho Theatre in London, and at the
Edinburgh Festival Fringe. A second production of
La Dispute, along with Hyman's play,
Drake the Amazing, took place at the
Darlinghurst Theatre, Sydney, Australia, in July and August 2011. In 2018 Hyman enrolled in South Western Law School and now works as an attorney. ==Notes==
