Description

This collection includes three haunting short plays that are among our most popular titles: the monologues THE WOMAN WITH 27 CHILDREN and BELLE OF THE BIJOU and the one act LATE/LATE…COMPUTER DATE. THE WOMAN WITH 27 CHILDREN: Angel lives alone in the house on the hill, built by her now-deceased husband, Vernon, the love of her life. She is utterly lost without him to guide her. BELLE OF THE BIJOU: Tonight Belle has come to clean out her movie memorabilia accumulated over the years in the ticket booth in the now closed Bijou Theatre. Fear about leaving her ticket booth, her only true reality, becomes overwhelming. LATE/LATE… COMPUTER DATE: Isobel and Veronica, spinster sisters, live alone in genteel clutter. Veronica has never a date. Until now.
