Eleven Exeter -- or The Christmas Beast
Your husband wants to move. You want to stay. What do you do?
In this quirky comedy-drama, twenty-six-year-old Katherine McKee has been left alone at Christmas by her husband, Charlie. He dislikes Boston and has decided to return home to Iowa after law school -- with or without her. He was the official building manager of Eleven Exeter, a Victorian house turned into apartments in the elegant Back Bay. Not wanting to lose her own unit in the building, Katherine quietly takes over the manager duties. When the landlord discovers the building is suddenly running smoothly, he knows Katherine is now in charge.
Eleven Exeter is a paean to Boston and the city's grand Back Bay architecture.

A Child's Christmas in Wales
This new adaptation of the beloved prose-poem by Dylan Thomas closely follows the original work. In Act I, the “Adult Dylan” is reading his story out loud in a comfortable chair on the side as the words are acted out, and sometimes spoken, by actors on the stage. Act II is the Christmas party, with the Uncles snoozing after their turkey dinner, “present-giving time,” games, songs and ghost stories. Except for one song, which is licensed with the play, the music is all in the public domain and easily downloaded from the internet. Instrumentation can be a piano, or fiddle and guitar, along with other folk instruments if desired. The cast includes children and any ages of adults.
