A Blinded Horse Dreams of Hippocampi & Other Plays

By Justin Maxwell

These short plays are a collection of the poetic and unexpected. They include unassigned dialog and scene order determined by the spinning of a wheel. A chorus of seahorses sings, a car and a store have relationship problems, and Van Gogh meditates on his own death. Each play offers a fundamentally different moral compass to guide away from loneliness and fear. It is this compass that sets the course through this lyrical and unique collection.Included works by Justin Maxwell are plays for a small cast, "A Blinded Horse Dreams of Hippocampi," "Inspiration Point," "I'm in Al-Qaeda: a comedy of manners," "My Rich Temple," "Patience on the Way to Daylight: an Ars Poetica farce;" plays in song, "Whatsleeves," "Old MacDonald Dirge;" and plays for one performer, "~6x?=SAFETY: a comedic list poem," and "Exhausted Paint: the Death of Van Gogh."
