Waverly Place

    A play that perfectly captures what is so magic about a specific location and the people that frequent it. A play that is simply telling a damn good story. And don't even get me started how all the roles are meant to be played by a single actor. This play isn't just a meal but a whole feast for a versatile actor. This would be such a blast for any actor and director to work on together. This is the kind of theatre that we need in our troubling times. A reminder that human connection is really all we have.

    A fascinating one-man show set in its own world, where ghosts may just be real. The barbershop is a country all to itself, populated with fascinating characters and intrigue. This would be an extraordinary and exciting challenge for an actor to work together with an artistic team to bring this play to life. It would be fascinating to see produced.

    This play offers a clear sense of place -- a barber shop -- frequented by regulars and a Stranger who sets them on edge. Wonderful poetic imagery and cadence expressed by Pops who calls his gun -- Mr. Do Right. Loved this humorous line about a woman who was marrying for the first time in her late 40s: "She'd say 'I do' at the bus stop if it meant getting a husband.'" Great acting opportunity for a male actor who performs all of these roles.
