10 minute plays.

Inspired by local theatre impresario, Eric Goudie, I decided to try my hand at this. These would be fun for play reading parties. Also fun for 10 minute play festivals.

1. RENOVICTION

Graham and Eloise receive an N13 renoviction notice during the housing crisis. Seniors about to face homelessness. 4 characters - the couple Graham & Eloise, a Paralegal, a female friend.

2. SMILE

Inspired by a performance of this Charlie Chaplin song performed by Ken Gee & Sadie Fields, this is a story of a single man and his cat. 1 character - the man. The cat is created by the actions of the actor and the imagination of the audience.
