DO YOU REMEMBER?
A phony psychic is the host of a radio show, where his aim is to "help" ailed love once cope with the loss of a partner, family member, etc. What he gains from this show is (other than financial benefit) purely an ego boost. Because he can do absolutely no wrong. The irony is that he is a complete sleptic and does not believe in ghosts. Then, he recieves a phone call that reminds our host of his past. It was only a matter of time before it caught up with him.

I'M WORRIED ABOUT DOLLY PARTON
I'm Worried About Dolly Parton" is, at once, a grim meditation death, and also a waggish, fizzy, coming of-age story that centers on Judith, a beleaguered housewife, her teenage daughter Cassie, and Cassie's best friend Jill. The three women contemplate sex, death, and sadness while "buccal fat removal" looks. 1-hour long!

BEET SALD
Beet Salad is a play featuring a culmination of poetry, singing, movement, and psychological commentary of C.G Jung. It follows the lives of two people meeting, falling in love, raising a family, and eventually divorcing. The play doesn’t happen sequentially, and their relationship is fractured throughout. Jung’s words are echoed through the struggle of the two characters and how they relate to all of us. It is full of laughter, love and commentary on the heavy burden of love that each of us has taken.
