Cybele May. Cybele May's most recent collection of one-act plays, The Parking Lot Plays, was produced at Theatre/Theater in Hollywood and was heralded by the Los Angeles Times in 2003 as "A refreshing authorial voice . . . an epic survivor's monologue recalling Jean Cocteau . . . a sardonic attack worthy of Shirley Jackson . . . industry headhunters should scope out the inhabitants therein." Her one-acts have been produced all over Los Angeles, including The Intercession at North Hollywood's Interact Theatre as part of The Last Gasp. The Intercession was also produced by Women in Theatre at the Ventura Court Theatre, and at the LACC Annual Short Play Festival along with another one-act, Male Order. Her play A Grave Mistake has also been produced as an award-winning short film,entropy, directed by Daniel T. Green, and is now distributed by Atom Films. Ms. May is a graduate of Humboldt State University (BA) and Carnegie Mellon University (MFA). She most recently served as Literary Associate for the Ojai Playwrights Conference.

Synopsis: | In his increasingly desperate search for a kidnapped boy, Detective Stewart Grant finds himself relying more and more on the visions of Connie Aisling, a psychic who can foresee crimes like these with terrifying clarity. Connie knows that time is running out for the boy, and clings to the hope that she can help avert the horrible fate awaiting him. As the identity of the kidnapper comes into grim focus, both the psychic and the detective confront the purpose of fate and the horrors of the past, and are pulled toward a devastating climax. | |||||
