Synopsis: Barbara Martin is surprised when her new cleaning woman, Gloria, begins writing her personal note-stories about her son who plays football for an inept team and becomes a hero when he catches his cleats in his pants and cartwheels over the goal line, or about her trips to her psychic and her belief in the afterlife. Barbara gets caught up in the letter writing and a warm friendship develops between these two women from different social and economic spheres. When Barbara's husband dies unexpectedly, it is Gloria who is able to provide support and understanding. Told through letters, Dear Mrs Martin is a play about friendship, family, grief and hope.

Synopsis: While the Project Mercury astronauts carried America's hopes and dreams into space, NASA was busy training another elite corps of pilots, some with more flight experience than John Glenn and company. None of this group soared into space; they were women and here is their story. Flyer focuses on the hopes and dreams of one young pilot in particular. Fran Douglas rises above family scorn and her fiancee's condescension to join the women's corps. Action scenes involving NASA, Congress and Fran's family are intertwined with dream sequences about an intrepid black barnstormer, Bessie Coleman, who died in the 1920s performing an aerial feat. Bessie warns Fran about the many obstacles she will have to overcome to achieve her dream a dream left unfulfilled when NASA pulled the plug on training women for space flight

Synopsis: Holly Edwards' teen novels are so popular that her publisher has commissioned her to write an adult book for the Famous Foremothers series. Holly tries to write about her great aunt who was a madam in Alaska but soon realizes that all she knows about Myrta Jane Wonders are some old family stories. She employs a Ouija board to summon the long dead madam, who proceeds to set her niece straight about the afterlife before helping with the book. Myrta returns with her ex husband, reputedly a gangster, and two women who allegedly worked at Myrta's House of Wonders. Problems arise when these visitors do not conform to Holly's expectations. House of Wonders provides a hilarious look at the evolution of family stories and a unique, uplifting view of the next life.
