Poodle with Guitar

and Dark Glasses 

synopsis

(2M/3W, flexible)

Four late nights, five lost souls, one poodle gone Elvis. Above an after-hours club in an urban art slum, a painter loses control of her subject, a romance writer loses control of her heroine, an ESL teacher loses control of the to-be verb—and everybody learns the perils of living by formula. A rhapsodic comedy in one act.

Numerous university, high school, Off Off Broadway and international productions.
