The connection with Oz S5 is that he is married to Ellen McElduff.
There are various sites with info about him. Here's one with basic info about some of his plays. I have heard of some of them, but never seen them, although I will be reading some now. His plays are widely produced, so I might get a chance to see a few some day as well.

That he was compared to Stoppard in some of the reviews quoted of course immediately elicited "oohs" AND "Oz" from me.
