Plays 56

By Robin M. MacDuffie

PLAYS 56 presents three full length plays and one bonus short play, all by Robin M. MacDuffie. TOO DEPRESSING FOR WORDS is a romantic comedy about Frank, a lonely amateur writer in a dead-end job struggling with writers' block and a maniacal boss. Frank's characters Artice and Earnest come to life as he struggles to type out their stories on his laptop. This romantic comedy will have you cheering on the heroes of Frank's scenes even though writers' block ends them all with the inevitable expression "it's all too depressing for words." IN THE DARKNESS OF DAYLIGHT is a horror mystery about one man's struggle to cope with his wife's Alzheimer's disease. This tale takes place in an old mansion that comes ready-stocked with ghosts. Meet the ghosts, who haunt day and night, while John is asleep or awake. Meet Tally, a little girl who believes she has squatter's rights to the house. And finally, meet Bridget, the pretty alcoholic from across the fields who insists on welcoming strangers to town with brownies. Amongst the interruptions, John and wife Denise work out their trials in a horror dream world that threatens to spiral out of control. BOUND is a violent thriller about two young women trapped in a diner by a snowstorm with two men who determine that they are lesbians...and need to be taught a lesson. Sarah and Lyla are driving across country when they are trapped at Phil's Fill-up diner with Phil and Christine in the mythical town of Bound by whiteout conditions. They are joined by Jonny and Red, a couple of rough locals who bring with them a tale of violence which results in plans for revenge, and explores the question: where is justice in a world where the laws may not be able or may be unwilling to touch the lawless?
