“Break a Leg” to the following drama departments who will be performing Jeffrey's work in the upcoming months:
There's Still Time
| Andrews Living Arts Center | Fort Lauderdale FL | May 7-31. |
SynopsisWalt Becker will tell you that he has one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel. To make matters worse, he feels that his seven decades of life have been meaningless. He’s decided he will change that by doing something memorable. What can a seventy-plus year old do that is memorable? Standup comedy, of course. His wife and adult daughter whose lives have both recently taken emotional hits aren’t laughing when he tells them his plan. More stress and disappointment are the last things they need. Nevertheless, they soon come to rally behind him, not only because he is funny as hell, but because his zany new profession reinvigorates their lives, as well. | ||
The Promise
| Kent Denver School One-Act Play Festival | Englewood, CO | The festival is one night May 1. |
SynopsisThe rest of Mary Becker's life was going to be great. She had earned it. The business Mary and her husband (mostly, she) had worked so hard to build was thriving; her daughters had grown into independent young women, and her marriage of twenty plus years was on solid footing. And then capricious Fate spun her wheel. Mary's husband divorced her to put a trophy wife (formerly his personal trainer) on his arm and in his bed. Naturally, Mary is devastated. It is a tragic story, but unfortunately, one that is not that uncommon. This is where the play begins. THE PROMISE shows us that Fate always has one more spin in her wheel. | ||
