Santa's Dolphins

    A hilarious play! The dialog clip-clops along and the plot rides that rising action wave until it brings us oh so satisfactorily to the shore. A totally fun holiday short that could be presented by performers of all ages, but I really see it being a the perfect gift for high school and college actors. It is a completely unique animal and would make the perfect addition to a night of holiday shorts.

    Patrick manages to pack a lot into a short and very funny play! Some serious topics done in a hilarious way. Great fun for a short play festival any time of year!

    Perhaps magic dolphins will be the future transport of Santa! Wonderfully imaginative and entertaining!
