    Two sisters, and as usual too different attitudes. Mary is the one who assumes she can have everything without doing anything...Jan is the one who picks up the pieces. This is a very moving short play that unleashes very hard feelings. Very true to life I'm afraid and so well done..
  • Beach House

    This short play which was recently read at the Storefront Theatre in NC has so much to it in ten pages. The on-the-nose real estate agent, the son with all his childhood memories and the mother, Carolyn who has different kinds of memories and not all good. I have memories of a beach cottage our family stayed in on the Cape and this play made me think of it. Happily my memories are good ones.

    I heard a reading of this moving one act play this morning with Atlanta Dramatists (through the SUGA program). Two more lonely people you might not find. This piece is lyrical, sad and very moving as these two find their way in this thing called life.

    Disagreeing with a parent is par for the course, but sometimes it makes sense to give in and accept what the parent wants. Comfort is what the mother Carly wants after losing her husband and prepartng for Lil's departure. Lil is finally able to give a bit to her.

    Dog lovers will appreciate this short two hander. A couple meet up at the dog park after connecting online on a dating site. What could be better for the humans and the dogs. Except one of them doesn't have a dog. Really clever short play with opportunities for physical comedy.
  • The Sunset Train - 10 Minute Play

    Listened/watched this short play on Zoom with the SUGA program in Atlanta. Fun setting in the old west with a bad guy and an innocent woman...that is until the very good twist. A really fun two-hander.
  • The Penance - 10 Minute Play

    I listened/watched this short play on Zoom with the SUGA program in Atlanta. What's fun about this piece is that it doesn't go where you think it will go and there are good twists.
  • CARL FLUNT WOULD PROTECT YOU FROM TRUCKS

    I love this play because it made me think about all the choices I have made in my life...some good and some not so good. Mullen creates delicious characters who float in and out of the play. I was especially partial to Sister Becca who has some of the best lines. if you want to investigate the future, do it with these characters.

    I didn't know what to expect when I selected this monologue. It got me right away...makes me think Feeny-Williams might have some personal experience here. Kidding. Angela is a warm, delightful character dealing with the lower level of society. But because she cares so much about her girls, you do too. And you care for her as well. Really fun dialect as written.
  • CHRISTMAS IS ALL YOU WANT IT TO BE
    4 Mar. 2024
    What a calamity! Tea with a friend just before Christmas is a delightful monologue about all the mishaps one could ever dream about occurring. It's funny, sad and pathetic all at the same time. Audiences will love it. Poor thing.
