6-8 m, 2 f. Two interior settings: living room and garage
A true comedy-mystery in the tradition of Columbo, it delivers laughs as well as twists and turns in a fast-paced show. As the Baxters face retirement, they plan their first big garage sale. Not too computer-savvy, their unprotected wi-fi is being used by the kid next door to sell drugs. On the eve of the big garage sale, a SWAT team arrives at their house, and a dead body is discovered next door. The Baxters look very suspicious. Will their friends help them? Will they go to the big house? Will the garage sale have to be… cancelled?!! A fun play with real laughs as well as a genuine mystery plot!

Three couples who raised their kids as neighbors and friends have moved on to live in different parts of the country. But once a year, on Labor Day weekend, they pick a spot to meet and reconnect. One year the ladies will decide the spot, the next year, it’s the guys’ turn.
Well, this year the ladies have decided that their reunion will be at a new-age health spa, with lots of salad greens on the menu and exercise and self-help courses for activities. And they have agreed not to tell their husbands until everyone is on-site.
The men, who have really only come for the steaks and beer, are horrified, and the battle between the sexes is on in earnest. Full of laughs and insight on what life means as one creeps past 50, this show is sure to please your audience.

3 m, 3 f. Unit setting, flexible, to suggest various locations.
Fast and funny: 6 actors and 6 different storylines! Act One is all about InLaws (and OutLaws). Act Two is Family Matters: little things like life, death, infinity.
Audiences love this easily produced romp, a reflection on the human condition and the funny things we all do.

As a family struggles with Christmas preparations, neighbors, relatives, and unexpected houseguests, it can lose the real meaning of the season. A foreign exchange student from a tiny island can't understand all the extra fuss for a holiday that is really celebrates the love that should be in our hearts year-round. This is a funny, soul-warming story about dealing with the holidaze, and still finding your way home.

4 m, 3-4 f. One interior setting, which transforms from the packed up living room, to the living room as it was, to the living room as it will be with the new owners.
Moving older parents out of the family home into a retirement community is a difficult task for any daughter and son-in-law, but doing it two days before Christmas is just plain crazy! Grandpa refuses to unhook his TV and will not leave his LazyBoy… in fact, he cooks up a scheme to stay in his house. Just what the new owners want: an old man living in the basement!
Is Christmas about the family home, where all those past holidays took place? Or is it about the memories that travel with you, wherever you and your loved ones are, and the joy in making new memories each year that see you through until the next - Christmas to Remember.
