"In the Company of
Strangers" an original
work by Angelique Torres &
Lee Swift
Directed by Eric C. Skiles
A reclusive web-designer, a discontented housewife, a
struggling teenager, and a lonely
widow; all four are searching for something
or someone to
connect to. As they wander the
Internet and discover the powerful tools of connectivity in our
modern society, each one learns something about themselves and
the freedom/limitations of online life. A segment of this
original work by Dallas playwrights Angelique Torres & Lee
Swift was presented at Kingwood in last year’s “Evening of
Shorts”.

"The Gifts of the Magi"
a holiday musical
by
Randy Courts & Mark
St. Germain
Directed by Eric C. Skiles
It is Christmas in New York, but for two young lovers, Jim and
Della, the prospects are bleak since both are out of work and
penniless. Their problems are solved when each gives up a prized
possession to buy presents for each other. Their sacrifice
creates, for a magical moment, an aura of warmth and giving in
the cold, impersonal winter city. This charming musical is based
upon two classic O’Henry stories, “The Gifts of the Magi” and
“The Cop and the Anthem.”

"The Musical Comedy Murders
of 1940"
by John Bishop
Directed by Darin P. Garrett
As a
blizzard cuts off any possible retreat, a creative artistic team
prepares for a new Broadway show. Bodies start to drop in plain
sight, knives spring out of nowhere, masked figures drag their
victims behind swiveling bookcases, and accusing fingers point
in all directions! With no help from a bumbling police inspector
who snowshoes in to investigate, the mystery is solved in the
nick of time and the "Slasher" unmasked. This sidesplitting
comedy shows off the author's refreshingly irreverent wit.
