Mother – A comedy about being politically correct

Everyone’s mother has their flaws, their embarrassing habits that make you wish you were anywhere else but in their company. But when one decides to fall in love with a person of colour, and you want to bring them home to meet your mother, who just happens to be the most politically incorrect person on the planet, it’s important that you have that little conversation before introducing them to the love of your life. In case he runs away screaming – never to return. A one act comedy about being politically correct and maybe more so than we need to be!

CUCKOLD – TEN MINUTE PERIOD PLAY SCRIPT

In eighteenth century England, CUCKOLD is a scandalous romp that surrounds a playwright, his muse, and her hapless husband.

One flew over the cuckold’s nest. He flew over, was seen by the Cuckold and invited to enjoy the most prized piece of his household for the sanctity of the creative pursuit. In Cuckold we are given an opportunity to observe a one of a kind domestic ‘agreement’. Simply put, the Cuckold agrees to his wife’s adultery as it aids in the flow of a certain playwright’s artistic, uh, juices in this ten minute period play script.

Pray take heed; the lady knows not what she does. Yet… the Cuckold and the playwright have been brought together for some or other plight. By surety, anonymity, complacency and zero propriety can art be well made and when sealed with a kiss, oh, the possibilities are endless…even when the kiss is shared by the unlikeliest pair!
