Synopsis: | When a very nearsighted forest ranger stumbles upon a campsite where two rough-and-tumble cowboys are having a really good time roughly tumbling in the woods, all manner of surreal gender-bending, shape-shifting, psyche-shattering mayhem erupts. Can the wily Ranger counter the campy carnal craziness, or will the howling power of the spirits of the eternal forest overcome them all? Lord of the Burgeoning Lumber is a magical-realism comedy that takes some bizarre surrealistic turns as it plays merry havoc with the malleable nature of identity. | |||||

Notes: | Cleveland Public Theatre, Workshop Production, MFA Thesis; 7 actors play 21 characters. Two women should be in their late 20's up to 40. Two women should be older than that. One man should be late 20's to 40. The other two men should be older than that. | |||||
Synopsis: | What do you author and what authors you? One young woman's life is explored via the metatheatrical act of play creation. By combining myth, fairy tale, personal history, dress making and play making, layers of conscious reality are laid bare and meaning in one woman's life is prodded, crucified, drawn and quartered, and reconstructed again and again and again. | |||||
