Yours and Mine – Short Film
Grandpa needs a follow-up visit to his doctor following a serious episode. Grandma might just be a little anxious about it. While they make their way to the doctor’s office, they bicker and pick at each other, as old married folks are inclined to do. The button-pushing goes a bit too far, and it’s up to one of them to emotionally rescue the other in a moment of tenderness and enduring love.

Life is But a Dream – 10-minute Play
This comedy tosses reality and identity up for grabs. A handsome young lad paddles a canoe with his beautiful lover across a serene lake (we’ve all seen that cliché). But wait, who’s who, and where’s where? These kids might not be totally who they appear, and trying to figure out who’s sane and who’s not gets to be a bit of a trick.

The Da-da, da-da, da-da, da Song – 10-minute Play
This comedy has fun with three different sets of lyrics set to the same children’s tune (Alphabet Song, Ba-Ba Black Sheep, and Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star). Three children go off the map trying to resolve the metaphysical, intellectual and blue-collar conflicts between each of their symbolic personalities. Light, funny, and smart, this story appeals to children of all ages, as long as they’re past puberty.
