"Angel Cake" - A Christmas play for two women
A touching play about the relationship between a mother and daughter with a surprising twist. A cake is baked during the performance of the play. The cake acts as a symbol of reconciliation between them and can also be shared out among the audience at the end. Written especially for women's groups and clubs as a Christmas entertainment. Performance time 15 minutes. Cast two women - mother (60+) and daughter.
"Lylee" - A play for two women about life and redemption
A play that is at once thought provoking and amusing. A middle aged woman in crisis is waiting for a blind date picked from a newspaper advertisement. As she gets more and more nervous she cries out "Oh Christ I need a cigarette" and Christ appears (as a woman) and offers her one. They talk about why the world is in such a mess and why God allows it. Lylee has a nice ending that shows the meaning and the responsibilities of forgiveness. "A marvelous piece of work" Seamus Flanagan - playwright. Aimed for performance in Church. But considered blasphemous by the undiscerning. Time 20 minutes. Cast 2 women - one mid forties (the woman on a date) the other either distinctly older or younger (Christ).
"Alice in Lyndhurst" - A play about the life of the real Alice in Wonderland
Shown in photo above. Time 1 hour 30 minutes. Cast 2 principal players. Alice who reads her part and Dodgson who reads selections from the Alice Books. Supporting cast 1 man, 1 woman, several young children to mime the scenes and play Alice and sisters as young children. Minimum number of children 4 girls.( First performance used 8 children but only to give all a part if they wanted one.). I live near Lyndhurst and this play attempts to tell the story of Alice Liddel the girl for whom Lewis Carrol wrote the Alice Books. In later life she became the queen of Lyndhurst. Two of her sons were killed in the first world war. Her big house "Cuffnells" was knocked down after the second world war and there is no sign of it any more.
"Torn Apart" a play about child abduction and parental alienation
This play, based on bitter personal experience looks at the problem of parental abduction of children. It is not a happy play or a happy story. Parental abduction nearly always ruins the lives of the children involved and more frequently than not the lives of their parents as well. A rehearsed reading of this play can be seen on YouTube. I hope you will read this play or watch it on Youtube. There is no charge for performance. If you wish you can give a fee to Reunite International - a charity that tries to sort these matters out.
