Cabin fever is taken to the extreme in SNOWBOUND, a new full-length comedy by James C. Ferguson. When Mark, a struggling screenwriter, flies to visit friends, David and Pam, in the Midwest, the snow comes along too, bringing the three a little too close for comfort. A weekend of low-key, superficial frivolity quickly devolves into nearly a week and a half of misdirected anger; emotional outbursts and suspicion when the trio realizes they can’t — for any reason — leave the house. Of course the way the relationships are unraveling, they might fare better out in the storm.

Inspired (loosely) by Mark Twain’s classic novel A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court, King Arthur In Contemporary Connecticut reverses Twain’s original premise, unexpectedly transporting King Arthur to a small town in twentieth century Connecticut, where he struggles to adjust to his new future while his past refuses to stay in the past.

Following in the footsteps of It's a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play and The Thrilling Adventure Hour, King Arthur In Contemporary Connecticut is staged as a live radio play, with the actors on microphones and utilizing sound effects and music that are both pre-recorded and performed live.
