Synopsis

Seven plays not for the faint of heart! The Order of the Virgin Mothers grows aborted fetuses, and then enters the rescue childen in a contest to see which one might represent the Second Coming of Christ. Medea in Athens follows the ancient Greek heroine from Corinth, where her children died, to a city where she tries to establish a new life with a new husband and child. Born Again uses reincarnation as a tool to take revenge on your enemies for what they did to you in your last life. Billie Holiday Night in Heaven's Lounge features Rebecca, Miriam, and Jezebel from the Old Testament dishing the dirt on their Biblical menfolk. Peace at the Dinner Table shows a typical family on Queen Street, and asks the question: if we can't even have peace at the dinner table, how can we ever find world peace? The Harambee Sweater is a children's play set during Kwanzaa. Nessie and the Terrible Troll (with Jean Lorrah) takes us on a fourth trip to the wonderful world of Nessie the Loch Ness "monster."
