A Very Nouveau Holiday 2016

For the last three years I have participated in Nouveau 47 Theatre's annual collection of short seasonal plays called A Very Nouveau Holiday. I'm pleased that once again a play of mine has been accepted.

Here's a blurb about the evening as a whole.

The production is made up of eight short plays about the holidays. As in previous years, the plays are from local, Texas playwrights and every one is a new work! The plays cover a wide range of topics, from send ups of popular holiday images (what if snow globe figures could talk?) to somber pieces that express how the holidays can make us question what we believe.

My piece this year is called CRANDALL ON PLANET X-16. It is set on an alien world as we join a group of galactic troopers mid-invasion. One of them is having a debilitating case of homesickness at the worse possible time. Directed by Chris McCleary.
