Deanna and Paul

by Dagney Kerr

Deanna's a quirky waitress with a strict no tipping policy. Paul's a surly customer with a tight lid on his heart. Their lonely worlds collide one day in a small-town diner, where one cup of coffee can change everything.

    This script is pure poetry. You think you know what you're getting into, but the beautiful words take you on an unexpected ride.

    I saw DEANNA AND PAUL in the Femme Fatale Play Festival. Dagney Kerr's writing is sweet and soulful. Deanna and Paul couldn't be more different and I was rooting for them from the very beginning. This play is full of subtly powerful moments, that you will be thinking about for days afterward! Check it out!
