A project to be proposed to a local theatre group. A show consisting
of four established one-act plays. With additional, original writing
threading all four shows together into one fun night of themed theatre.
The Whole Shebang
This play asks the question, "What if the entire universe was just some nerd's science project?" In a classroom in a dimension far beyond ours, a student striving for a "Master of the Universe" degree gives an oral presentation on an unusual thesis -- the creation of the
heavens and the earth. Two professors and a dean interrogate the
student and his two visual aids, a "typical" man and woman.
Hard Candy
Job applicants at Banff Enterprises will do anything to claw their way
up the corporate ladder. In a fast-paced series of hilarious interviews,
the new recruits try every trick in the book -- from bribery, nepotism,
and the Old Boy Network to blackmail, seduction, and mind control.
The Cards of Fate
And now it's time for The Cards of Fate, the hit game show where
contestants win fabulous prizes, and control the destinies of
unsuspecting innocents. Fate is kind and the prize is yours when you
get a question right. But get a question wrong, and fate will deal a
crushing blow to some poor, blameless soul -- live on camera! It's all
fun and games until someone gets hurt, or the ratings slip too low...
A Timely Maneuver
Arrow-stiff Jane is unpleasantly surprised when her reckless blind
date, Reggie, sets an egg timer on their table. Five minutes later the
timer goes off, and Reggie makes a shocking proposition...
