    A wickedly clever short that begins as a wild, absurdist comedy and ends... well... you'll need to discover that for yourself. Original, lively, intelligent... loads of fun for the reader or viewer. Recommended!
  • Down the Stretch They Come!
    31 Oct. 2021
    A most enjoyable comedy about the meeting between two bettors on the 2019 Kentucky Derby who discarded what they believed were their losing tickets after the race, omly to discover that their horse, Country House, had won due to a disqualification. Fast and fun. Enjoy!
  • Here I Gauguin
    30 Oct. 2021
    A wonderful radio comedy about a man - Paul - who visits the Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art and is convinced by Temanava - the bare-breasted Tahitian woman of Gauguin's "Whispered Words" - that he is, in fact, the reincarnation of the famous painter. Clever, catchy, and captivating, this work is sure to please. Wonderful style. Brava!

  • First Lesson
    26 Oct. 2021
    A supremely touching two hander about a young female violin instructor, Daisy, and her older male student, Anderson. The reason behind Anderson's interest in learning to play is sure to touch the heart of every reader and audience member. Bravo! Highly recommended.
  • Life Support
    16 Oct. 2021
    A wonderfully written, touching two-hander about love and life... hate and reproach... homophobia and religion. So much is included in this fine work. Highly Recommended.
  • For a Man Your Age
    4 Oct. 2021
    A wonderful two-hander featuring two superb roles for two older - no, make that mature - or better yet, sage - male actors. Michael and Will, a gay couple, are trapped with one another (on a Saturday, of all days!) when their building's elevator is out of use. It's thirteen stories to the ground - too far for either of them to travel. Which means... they are joyously trapped with one another. Highly recommended!
  • Miss Diagnosed
    1 Oct. 2021
    A wonderfully serious short play about psychiatry and people... and caring and taking time... and oh, so much more. Miss Diagnosed looks simple - and in some ways it is - but it is a touching and important play. By all means, give it a read! Recommended.
  • Designated Driver
    28 Sep. 2021
    A superbly written short play about love and loss, with an ending that is truly unexpected. Wonderful characters for actors to portray. Highly recommended!
  • THE NEIGHBOR
    24 Sep. 2021
    A tale based upon real life... Tony (and his unseen spouse, Susan) are new to New York City and meet one of their neighbors.... a woman who's obviously one of the city's most colorful inhabitants. She brash, bold, foul mouthed... and intriguing. A woman of the 70s. This engaging two-hander offers fine roles for the actors playing Tony and Delia. Recommended.
