From Comedy to serious there are now 7 of my earlier plays available to Theatre Companies. Some are more suitable to small stages and for solo performers, others need box sets and larger casts. If none appeal, then hopefully the next batch, due out later this year might be more accommodating.
amazon.co.uk for UK readers for next day delivery.
amazon.com for others. Also available via CreateSpace.

TWO ACT PLAYS.
1] The Pretzi Stop. One set, minimum 3 male, three female. Murder in mind: who will live and who
will die, when it is obvious that plots are afoot!
2] Scandalous Women. One set minimum 5 female, 2 male. Backstage crisis in the wardrobe room of
the local Rep. Funny and sad, but needs excellent females in the leads.
3] Our Bessie. One female, two male. Biography of Bessie Braddock the famous Liverpool MP. Bessie died in 1970 and is still fondly remembered.
4] Bottling Up. Large cast needed. 'Within comedy lies much tragedy' This drama needs sensitive
handling and a good director to maintain the pace and prevent a
maudlin atmosphere.
MONOLOGUES.
1] Life is an iceberg. Full length for a woman about to retire, re-assessing her life. Funny/sad.
2] Buttered Toast. Full length - a mother re-establishes her links to her family. Funny/sad.
3] Yes Sir, No Sir. Full length - a woman examines the past cruelty of both parents and church. This
drama comes with a warning that Irish historical attitudes might offend. Please don't read this if you are homophobic.
Thank you for reading this. If you are interested in performing any of my works, please understand that I am sympathetic towards reduced fees for Little Theatres and bone fide amateur drama groups. Professional groups must abide by National and international Royalty Payments.
