💌 100 Love Letters I Never Sent
100 Love Letters I Never Sent is a monologue format in one act, set in modern times. The theme explores love (mostly romantic love) and how different people experience it. We see a brief snapshot into 9 characters’ lives and their experiences with love, whether that be unrequited love, being in a relationship, not believing in love, just wanting love, etc. It is funny, silly, and dramatic, but also meaningful and very human.
🐴Late: A Cowboy Song
Mary and Crick are young adults from rural Pennsylvania. The couple have a baby together, and Crick gets a job at an art museum. As Crick's juvenility erodes Mary’s resolve, she embarks on a dangerous & forbidden friendship with a woman they went to high school with, a cowboy named Red. When Mary gives birth to an intersex child— who Crick names Jill and Mary names Blue— the couple must contend with their different philosophies.
🎭SDA and the UAF Department of Theatre & Film
