Heralded playwright David Ives
has made a name for himself with his unique ability
to convey zaniness with a tinge of angst. In this
follow-up collection to the award-winning sextet, All
in the Timing, Ives once again pushes the comedic
envelope with a series of short plays. This
off-the-wall anthology is comprised of a group of
one-acts. The assortment includes :
Time Flies In Time Flies,
two lonely but sweet young mayflies meet at a pond
and really hit it off. Unforturately, Horace and May
watch a nature program on this first night out and
discover they have a lifespan of only one day - and
their lives are half over.
Bolero It is the middle of
the night. The winds blows suddenly and there are
noises in the next apartment and a woman decides that
they are approaching the unknown.
Captive Audience A
cautionary fable tells how Rob and Laura face a
menace in their living room: a television that talks
back to them and threatens to swallow them whole.
The Mystery at Twicknam Vicarage
A body on the carpet, three ridiculous
Masterpiece Theatre-style suspects and a bumbling
Scotland Yard detective solve philosophical
quandaries as they investigate: Who killed Jeremy
Thumpington-Fffienes?
Soap Opera A washing-machine
repairman falls in love with a picture-perfect
washer. Should he tell his girlfriend Mabel? Is the
washer two-timing him with a dryer? Stay tuned.

Tower of Babel.
