Synopsis: | Is it possible to create a new soul? Harley is a Broadway actress who just turned fifty. She's a good actress and young-looking, but her career was built on sexy roles. Now that she's no longer young enough for those parts, her career is in decline. Harley knows her time on Broadway is limited unless she changes type, so she accepts the part of a mother of a twenty-year old. The play is an excellent vehicle to establish Harley as a serious actress because the play has a powerful final scene. The only problem with the final scene is that it closely parallels a personal tragedy and she can't keep the character's pain separate from her own. And the struggle to separate her pain from her performance threatens to end her career. A play-within-a-play, Anatomy of an Actress tells the story of a woman's struggle to create a new soul. | |||||

Synopsis: | Manny Green owns the Double-Wide Dinner and is secretly in love with Jackie, his young waitress. Although he's Jewish and has never prepared a traditional meal, Manny offers to make Christmas dinner for the homeless so he can win Jackie's heart. A good plan, but with a few obstacles; Manny's clinging mother who's afraid her son is Going Christmas, a sarcastic head waitress with five ex-husbands who wants to protect Manny from heartbreak, a derelict Santa who mistakenly repeats whatever he hears, add a touch of Christmas kugel, burned cookies and Jackie's rich boyfriend, and you have the recipe for Christmas Matzo | |||||
