This book was released on 1979 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[The Nature and Purpose of the Universe] centers on a week in the beleaguered life of Eleanor Mann, housewife and mother, who lives with her religious fanatic husband and three sons; the oldest a pimp and dope pusher; the middle son a flagrant homosexual; and the youngest the victim of a threshing machine accident which has deprived him of his manhood. The family becomes embroiled in a plot to assassinate the Pope, who is coming to New Jersey to bless the air, and with the help of a radical black nun succeeds in its purpose—with unexpectedly hilarious results. [In Death Comes to Us All, Mary Agnes] the scene is a decaying mansion occupied by a family beset by all manner of problems: conceit, hatred, selfishness, incest and cruelty—all dealt with in an ironic, highly theatrical manner which offers rare acting opportunities for the performers involved. Throughout, and despite the horrors encountered, all exude a kind of bland innocence which, oddly enough, seems to excuse their otherwise inexcusable behavior—and underscores the biting irony of what takes place. [In 'Dentity Crisis] recovering from a nervous breakdown, Jane is nursed and nagged by her relentlessly cheerful mother, and confused by her oversexed brother—who keeps changing into her father, her grandfather and her mother’s French lover. Eventually all (including Jane’s psychiatrist, who undergoes a sex change operation and swaps places with his wife) change characters again and become Jane herself—leaving her with no identity at all and pointing up the near impossibility of self-identification in our uncertain times." -- Publisher's website.

Book Synopsis Three Short Plays by : Jonathan Ridler
Download or read book Three Short Plays written by Jonathan Ridler and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-09-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of three short plays provides a delightful addition to the repertoire of any theatre troupe, amateur or professional. Each individual play provides a different style of stage production and atmosphere. From the stark single chair of the mystical monologue of Jacob's Giraffe, to the modest prop of a bench that hosts a riotous ensemble of eccentric personalities in Bench Press (a play without words), to the modern-day parable of The Pentillionaire whose mysterious narrative tale is counter-pointed with the daft interpretation of the story by a television reporter, the three plays offer variations of entertainment that are sure to satisfy and please audiences and performers alike. With each work needing minimal resources, the production costs are low, yet all-the-more effective for that elegant simplicity. The duration of each play being less than 10 minutes is also conducive to incorporation of any or all of them in a larger programme of suitably amenable works. Whilst originally written for amateur players, the multi-layered material can also serve professional performers well, and be as simply or as thoughtfully received by audiences in as many ways as there are venues for the performances.

ON THE MENU by Rob Ackerman. A mother tries to talk to her fourteen-year-old daughter about sex before she goes off to culinary camp for the summer. The daughter—of course—wants nothing to do with this conversation. But her mother persists, until the daughter finds a way to turn the tables on her. (2 women.) RULES OF COMEDY by Patricia Cotter. Caroline is really, really not funny. Which is why she hires Guy, a stand-up comedian with some hang-ups of his own, to teach her how to tell jokes.

Late at night, outside their father’s hospital room, Molly, Grace, and Lucy argue about which of them should tell their brother Sam to break up with “that girl” they can’t stand.
