Some Little Plays
In the course of my life as a writer, I regularly submit work to different outlets, be it publishers, short stories contests, webzines, and yes, even theatre houses. As expected, I get my fair share of acceptance and rejection letters.
A while back, I received a rejection letter from a theater company for a set of three short plays I wrote. While that somewhat saddened me, I also know it's part and parcel of being a writer.
However, because the plays focus on so narrow a topic, I wasn't quite sure what to do with them - until I realized anyone who reads my blog might find value in the characters or set-up of a short play. Therefore, I'm posting the plays below for anyone who wants to read them, hopefully laugh, and perhaps get inspired. If such is the case, then I will consider my time writing them well-spent. (As these are second drafts, please disregard crazy typo errors.)
Please enjoy:

"Noble Calling" was everything I hoped it would be and more. These are hilarious! I stand by my advice to get some people together and make YouTube productions out of them.
ReplyDeleteAwww, thank you. That one is my fave, too. Though Pancho Claus still makes me giggle quite a bit! I'll take your recommendations under consideration - free time, where are you??!?
