Claudia is young, parentless, minimally employed, and almost without family or friends but she remains upbeat about her future and confident in her quest to form a personal tribe for herself and her boyfriend Johnny. But Johnny has problems of his own. He has launched into adulthood but still struggles to cut the cord from his concerned mother while searching for a connection to his long-absent father. As the few people Claudia has in her life begin to fall away and the problems in her relationship are laid bare, she teeters on the brink of catastrophe in this searing, darkly funny tragicomedy about the
critical importance of community, identity, and home.

Six people. Six problems. Two houses side by side in upstate New York on a bucolic autumn hillside that is slowly being turned into subdivisions. In one house lives a married couple who long to have children but who are not physiologically able. They are religious, rural and traditional. Beverly once taught school but has stopped since, "Children don't really understand Christ." In the other house lives a hip musician, James, and his even hipper artist best friend, Martha. They are weekenders from New York City who just want to make their marks on earth as artists. James is gay. Martha is busy getting ready for the opening of her huge art show of sculptures hewn from lard. They are atheist, urban and very modern. Certainly, they don't think too much of their townie neighbors. But the neighbors keep coming over looking to James for the very thing they need in order for them to have a baby. Will the sperm fly? And will the stress of sperm gathering cause a conflagration? A loving transsexual named Claudia and a bright-eyed, narcissistic dancer round out the cast in this thoughtful drama with plenty of comedy about who gets to inherit the earth.

In this modern farce, the Kendoos, a media family, live in Westchester County. Like their neighbors, each day they read the New York Times and watch the evening news. The world is growing more violent. Things are spinning out of control. In the middle of their Independence Day barbecue gunshots are heard. Murder has taken place right next door. All the guests disburse except for Stark, an ambitious reporter. Bob Kendoo and his three grown Kendoo children would like to find out who committed these murders, but they have problems of their own. Loyalty Kendoo, escaping her abusive husband, has just flown in from Oregon to celebrate with her family only to be covered with barbecue sauce. Discipline Kendoo pines to give up being a pro football player. He wants to let the world know that he is bisexual and needs to be free and whimsical. Patience Kendoo has to eat, and she doesn't know why. Bob Kendoo is answering phone calls. Someone is offering him bribe money to keep his mouth shut about a heinous crime.

Detective Kechejian shows up to solve the murders. She is Armenian and wants the world to know the horror and the suffering of the Armenian people. While Discipline tries to make it with Stark, and Loyalty complains about her bad marriage, and Patience decides to hide in the upstairs closet for fear of murder, things reach a fevered pitch until Loyalty passes out, Discipline is completely rejected by Stark, and as a total surprise to Patience, she gives birth to a baby.

In act two Paul shows up, a statistician who is trying to change his life from math to love.
He desires Loyalty and wants to bring her up to his house in New Hampshire. Patience overhears the phone calls to her father. She discovers he is being offered bribes as hush money to keep him quiet. Patience has been raped by a very powerful man who silenced the media with cash, and now her own father may be part of a male dominated cover-up. She sets out to kill her father and confronts her whole family as she pines for her frozen placenta. During all this, Stark is collecting information and sending it to the magazine office through his virtual reality mask. Patience is finally let in on the game that has been played once the reporter has left. The murders weren't real. They were invented to keep the reporter around snooping. The phone calls were a ruse to expose the man who raped Patience. Discipline is exposing his bisexuality in order to get good coverage in the press, thereby increasing his trading price and giving him the money for the family's move to a new place. Loyalty realizes that, "Maybe the things that are unattractive about me really are unattractive," and decides to leave her husband and run North with Paul. It turns out that Detective Kechejian is not really a detective at all, "I can't find my shoes in the middle of the living room with the lights on." She is Bob Kendoo's girlfriend, Reneé, who has a passion for truth and old world humor. Everyone gets what they need and they all move to New Hampshire where things will be better. As soon as Patience files a police report about her rape, they will move to New Hampshire and raise this new baby in a new world. Discipline declares as they prepare to leave, "Oh how they’ll fear the feminization of America--when all conflict is over and your only worry is to decide what beautiful thing you are going to create." A calmness settles over this modern family.

American Air is a one-person play that focuses on a few days in the life of eleven characters leading up to five of the characters' journeys on ill-fated flight 911 from Chicago to Denver. It is completely fictional and mostly comedic. The play has a strong story line. The series of events are in chronological order. The weather is bad.

The play begins with Clark, a failed musician with a broken marriage, who flees Boston to start over as a short-order cook at The Flying Burger at O'Hare Airport. His problems with women, money and public image send him ultimately to an old friend's house in Oregon where he hopes to start his life over. He feels no one listens to him.

Gus has a recently deceased mother. He is forced to play Go Fish and Parcheesi for the family wealth in the basement of his childhood home in Brooklyn with his overbearing brother, Gus' Brother. He too has marriage troubles and needs to learn how to assert himself.

Gus' Brother wants to stay young forever. He is a complete bully and orders around Gus and their sister Stacie to do exactly what he says.

While Clark and Gus are battling with their own problems, James, a well-to-do young man from Chicago, speaks out against his therapist and group therapy mates as to why he no longer needs to be there. His alienation and pompous self-importance mask his deeper need for the affection he has never received. He is charming and scary. He leaves therapy and travels to Aspen for a typical weekend getaway on flight 911 where he meets Clark, Gus and David.

David is a Triple-A agent living in New York City who has abandonment issues with his lover. He is Jewish and hyper-active. David is very warm and full of good humor even though he torments himself with paranoid ideas of the loss of his lover, Mark, to younger men. He accepts an offer to join his flight attendant friend, Marie-Françoise, on a ski weekend trip to Utah.

Marie-Françoise is a Codependent-No-More wanna-be. She is lonely, from France, and is accident prone.

Marie-Françoise works with The Captain, the pilot of flight 911, who is a recovering alcoholic. He has wild flights of fancy and enjoys being very candid with his passengers over the jet sound system.

Collette is a failed dancer with an eating disorder who wants to advance her career by moving out West. She is in James' group therapy and is attracted to him. She is dramatic and spews hackneyed epithets. She spends a good deal of time in the snowy parking lot of O'Hare Airport never being able to board a plane.

Collette meets, The Man, a fellow worker of Clark's from The Flying Burger. The Man is from Louisiana. He has mistakenly murdered his wife on a hunting trip. He is confused about meat and feels we should all eat it.

Collette is very supported by her widowed mother, Collette's Mother, who tells Collette the story of how Collette was adopted. Collette's mother wants her to stay in Chicago. She is from a simpler, heart-felt generation.

Collette's Boyfriend is on his way to pick up Collette at LAX not knowing that she never gets on a plane. He is a professional plant-waterer on a cellular phone who speaks to the audience on the disadvantages of living in Los Angeles. If he ever has a daughter he is going to name her Yorba Linda.

All these characters come into contact with each other and are transformed. Clark, Gus, James and David meet on flight 911. The plane almost crashes and they reevaluate aspects of their lives. Collette faces her food problems when she meets The Man as he is carrying a hamburger. She returns home to her mother to complete her growing up. Collette's boyfriend continues his solitary existence, which is what he needs. Marie-Françoise learns she must make a life for herself. The Captain realizes the strength of humanity in the face of danger. Clark realizes in order for people to listen to him he has to slow down. David learns to trust Mark. Gus goes back to his wife in Denver. James considers his feelings for the first time and lets himself be vulnerable with Collette.

American Air is an intricately woven story of eleven characters and a study of these characters as they attempt to move forward in bad climate.

Inspired by a real relationship between a famous singer and her father, three drug dealers are stranded on a boat in the middle of The Horse Latitudes, off the southern coast of the U.S. Tate, the captain of the ship, does not want anything to change. His daughter, Crystal, is a drug addict with an easy-going attitude. Maura, the third wheel in this business relationship, tries to help Crystal see other possibilities for her life than being the receptacle of her father's ego and power. But Crystal and Tate have other plans. A dark comedy, with a Greek chorus of one flounder-man singing original background music, consensual familial sex is revealed for what it is. Though Maura does not have the full effect she desires, she does give Crystal a glimpse into the possibility of choice and sovereignty.
