Books

Plays

In 2006, Anthony served as the playwright-in-residence at The Sidewalk Studio Theatre.[19] The theatre produced Anthony's play, P.O.P.: The Principles of Perfection, and the world premiere of the full play of Bang! A Love Story.[20]

Mora is the author of five plays:

  • Bang! A Love Story (Dragonon Incorporated; 2005).[21] ISBN 978-0-9763398-4-7 Scenes from the controversial, award-winning Bang! featuring ER actress Linda Cardellini were performed at the Acme Theater in Los Angeles and The American Place Theater in New York.[20] Bang! features characters whose core values are upended by youth, and was described in a Los Angeles Times review as "a blend of Vladimir Nabokov and Bret Easton Ellis."[22]
  • P.O.P.: The Principles of Perfection (2006) spotlights America's obsession with pop culture, pop stars, pop psychology and pop transformation.[23]
  • Modern Love (2009)[24] follows one of Hollywood's most successful blockbuster producers, whose obsession with his directorial debut takes him down a dark, precarious path.[20]
  • Silencing Silas (2012) is a one act noir play that features a lethal female lead.[25]
  • Hang Fire (2012) is suffused with Mora's trademark edgy, dark humor. It explores the shadow side of sex and power through a sex therapy group turned private revenge clique set on a dangerous vigilante mission.[25]
