Synopsis:
Mere Image is a comedy of complications concerning an eminent cosmetic surgeon, his tippling ex-cabaret singer wife, his histrionic daughter, his two wise and worldly sons, a pugnacious maid, and a high profile client intent on retaining her sex-bomb status at any price. Compromising photographs, a missing briefcase, and improbable art world imposters are destined to be exposed in the premiere issue of a scandal-soaked sleaze rag. The farcical situations illustrate the lengths people go for the sake of "mere image".

Synopsis:
Ruby Lips above the Water is the story of a young, developmentally disabled woman and her sheltered existence in a rural Minnesota town. Surrounded and protected by four well-meaning women: her mother, her two godmothers, and the local café owner; Ruby is insulated from life and finds no one is capable of coping with her dreams and unexpressed yearnings. The women find within the intimate and intricate lifetime relationship they share a common thread of suppressed desire and longing for what was and what might have been had life dictated a different path. Ruby's path during the course of the play is one of uncertain self-discovery as she copes with a mother unwilling to let her mature, a private inner world of idealized notions of adulthood, romance, and family, and the harsh reality of untold truths, life set adrift from security, and the cruel sacrifice of sexual innocence. Through it all, Ruby endures, and her story is ultimately one of triumph.

Other arrivals following in quick succession include the aunt's irascible husband, a gone-but-not-forgotten girlfriend and her insanely jealous partner, and a scheming co-worker whose interests encompass not only the office but also the bedroom. The comedy features slapstick and verbal acrobatics that enflame circumstances; engulfing a hapless man-child who finds his life reduced to baffling pandemonium.
