A SEASON OF ONE ACT PLAYS
“The Frosted Glass Coffin” by Tennessee Williams
Directed by Paul Wanis.
Early one morning, three old men sit outside the Hotel Ponce de Leon watching the line form at the cafeteria across the street. They talk about the price hike, they talk about a woman in the hotel who died suddenly the night before, they gossip. Underneath the chit-chat is an overwhelming awareness of death. They are all close to death. Not that they are sick … but when you’re in your 70s and 80s, you know that you’ve gotta be close.
“Distance” by Daniel Nellor
Directed by Jennifer Bitè with assistance of Michelle Swann
In this two-handed drama, estranged couple, Ellen and Andrew are unexpectedly brought together to deal with a violent incident involving their teenage son and another young man. The play follows their emotional journey over a brief period coming to terms with their son’s actions and examines themes around relationships and responsibilities.
“After Kafka” by Angie Farrow
Directed by David Collins
Drawing on text, physical score and audio-visual material, After Kafka weaves together the dreams and hopes of the writer Franz Kafka and his characters into choreographic theatre.

Distance was brilliantly acted. The raw emotion of the female actress, brought heartache to life. The frosted glass coffin was also brilliantly performed. Very believable and time and place was evoked. After Kafka was the weakest performed. The actors did not understand Kafka.
