Birthday Candles This is an existential dramedy centered on the life of one ordinary Michigan woman from Grand Rapids who we see as she ages from 17 to 100+ without the aid of prosthetics, makeup, or wigs. It follows Ernestine baking a simple butter cake on her birthday each year. It is a reminder of the importance of taking stock in the constants in an ever-changing life, especially as she questions her own insignificance in the universe amid romance, heartbreak, raising children, losing children, business success, loneliness, and everything in between.

 

Dr. Cook's Garden  The Vermont village of Greenfield Center is the setting of a story centered around a problem of medical ethics between a genial, benevolent and loved old physician and his protege who has returned. The village is peopled with fine, wholesome folk, and it appears only those who are wicked at heart die. The good Dr. Cook, who is willing to go out on sick calls at any hour of the day or night, is determined it should stay in that fortunate condition.It is the young doctor's attempt to make his mentor see reason on this point that brings on the gripping climax of the play where they are pitted against each other in a scene of unforgettable, breath-stopping suspense and high drama. ​

​

Waiting In The Wings A Noel Coward dramedy is a tribute to theatre set in a retirement home for actresses, all former stars. Jealousies abound, especially between Lotta and another who was also married to her former husband. A tragedy brings them to their senses and a new solarium brings out everyone's good nature.

A Gift To Remember On Christmas Eve a train develops engine trouble forcing the passengers to stop at a tiny depot in New Hampshire. A sailor heads to Texas to “pop” the question; A salesman, to LA to patch things up a marriage; a widow to Boston to be with family; a man and his wife to Maryland for the birth of their first grandchild; and the list goes on. Disappointed and dispirited at first, they find ways to celebrate the true spirit of Christmas. Through patience, understanding and humor they realize this night will be a gift to remember.
