Three Plays : The Other Woman, Banana Split, Awa' The Crow Road ; And An Essay, Writing The End, Heather Nimmo

Theses: Doctorates and Masters

The Other Woman is an eighty-minute stage play which asks the question: Do women really play the political game differently? A high-flying politician can't admit to a small mistake.

Banana Split is a ninety-minute comedy for two actors which investigates life after divorce, the connections between risk and reward, and the implications of doubling (or coupling).
