Plays

  • Course Society
    The Redwood Course Society of Golf has become so selective that it now holds no members at all. Henry Redhawk is sent on a mission to find a new member and save the club from extinction. This gets him involved in a screwball scheme that involves fake deaths, love triangles, and a seemingly evil tennis empire.
  • Ye Olde American Egg
    A story of America 100 years ago. A country without internet, without computers, without television. It turns out none of these are required to feed the American notion of rising up in the world. The narrator recounts his childhood growing up in failing businesses of restaurants and chicken farming. The play gives him a chance to change the family destiny.
  • Are you Sure? A Comedy of Computer Manners
    A Short Comedy about the terrible manners to which we've become all too accustomed.
  • What's Ninety For? A Guide to the Chicago Highway System
    A short two character skit to be delivered in the style of "Who's on First?"
  • The Pompous Playwright
    An adaptation of "Miles Gloriosus" this farcical comedy leaves no theatre trope unturned and is equally savage to all theatre roles.
  • A Happy Announcement
    10 Minute Comedy modeled after "The Proposal" by Chekov. Natalie receives happy news she is expecting, but arguments with her husband Ivan may prevent her from passing on the news to him.
  • The UnOpened Box
    A reactor tries to convince a rater to rate his reaction to a follower's apology to an unboxer.
