Ten-Minute: (2026) Hilarity ensues when Carole arrives to spend the winter in Miami and meets an unexpected guest, Nigel, who mistakes her for the cleaning lady. It gets more confusing when Jerry, a cop, shows up looking for her son Kevin to detain him for running an illegal Air BnB, but is that why he's really there? And who's coming to Thanksgiving dinner?

    This play is a delightfully funny little rollercoaster ride of misunderstandings. I feel very flattered that character Nigel is based on me. I love visiting Philip in Miami, but I am a proper guest rather than an AirBnB one and am not irredeemably straight. Lovely!

    As the calendar approaches late fall in America, the common northern Snowbird begins its annual descent upon Miami. This year, Carole Osborne’s migration lands her at her usual roost only to find an unexpected British Tourist, a cop, and her son entangled in some sort of housing arrangement she can’t quite suss out. Hilarity ensues as Carole tries to work out exactly who is cohabiting with whom in time to be ready for Thanksgiving dinner. A wickedly fun satire of 21st century mores and manners.

    With rapid-fire dialogue and an escalating series of misunderstandings, Snowbirds delivers a humorous tumble of characters, each making an effort to enjoy a warm Miami holiday.
