CRUNCHING NUMBERS by Lynn Marie Macy - Three pungent, linked one-act plays about the supreme angst and anguish that comes with turning thirty.

CAFÉ SOCIETY by Robert Simonson - A cockeyed satire of contemporary urban America in which a young woman goes to hell and back just to get her daily dose of iced de-ca.

"SO, I KILLED A FEW PEOPLE..." by GARY RUDOREN & DAVID SUMMERS - A chillingly comic monologue delivered by a convicted serial killer on death row whose final request is to put on a one-man show.

ARE WE THERE YET? by Garth Wingfield - A bittersweet comic drama about a young woman's renewal and rebirth following some truly shocking medical news.

Bonus Material includes these brand new works: EXCERPT FROM UNTITLED by Kirk Wood Bromley. The first ten minutes of a new play continuing his style of poetic writing. AN OTHERWISE EMPTY ROOM (MANHATTAN) by David Dannenfelser. A 10-minute play of very few words told all in the action. SEBRESQUE by Edmund De Santis. A quirky, somewhat darker 10-minute play for three actors. WRACKED by Lynn Marie Macy. A contemporary 10-minute play that looks on an interesting mother/daughter relationship. EXCERPT FROM ARCHIE NUNN KILLED A FEW PEOPLE by Gary Rudoren. A screenplay based on his and David Summer's play. STORY TIME by Garth Wingfield. An up-to-date 10-minute play with an acerbic wit and a bit of sarcasm.
