Après la Fête
By Joseph Vitale
In the wee, small hours of the morning, a young couple cleans up after a cocktail party at their home, but it’s more than the glasses that need to be sorted out.
Joseph Vitale, a semi-finalist for the 2012 Eugene O’Neill/National Playwrights Conference, is the author of several plays, including Murrow, which will be produced Off-Broadway at the Phoenix Theatre Ensemble in May.
The Turtle and the Woman
By Mary Jane Walsh
The joy of birth, the perils of life, and the meaning of friendship create an enduring bond between two females who meet at the edge of the woods in Great Swamp National Wildlife Refuge
Most of Mary Jane Walsh’s plays, including Ping, My Sister’s Back Is Killing Me and Finishing It Off! feature solo performances, so here’s a change. An Elizabeth native, she lives in Basking Ridge and is a member of The Dramatists Guild of America.
