*The First Ladies: Echoes of the East Wing
(3 women)
“Set in a timeless space within the East Wing of the White House, The First Ladies: Echoes of the East Wing brings together three extraordinary women—Mamie Eisenhower, Jacqueline Kennedy, and Lady Bird Johnson—each confronting the legacy of love, duty, and history. In three acts of lyrical dialogue and interwoven reflection, the women share their private truths behind the public smiles. Mamie recalls the postwar optimism and personal sacrifices that defined her years beside a general-turned-president. Jackie revisits the beauty and tragedy of Camelot, revealing the human cost of grace under pressure. Lady Bird carries the conversation forward, grounded in compassion and conviction, shaping America’s landscape and conscience amid turmoil. Separated by time yet united by experience, the three First Ladies speak across decades in a poetic chorus of resilience. Together they reclaim their voices from history’s margins, finding strength, sisterhood, and a quiet defiance in the face of power’s shadow.”
*Color Me Crazy
(4 women, 7 men, 2 children (certain characters can be gender bent. Ensemble roles available for townspeople in the salon, police officers, paramedics, etc.))
“Based on the award-winning Magnolia Manor series, this play is set in the charming Southern town of Rhinestone in 1986. Color Me Crazy is a heartwarming and comedic story about friendship, resilience, and the healing power of community. At the heart of it all are three lifelong friends: Ruby Montgomery, Maude Cooper, and Opal Tyler. Ruby, the steady matriarch of Magnolia Manor, anchors her family and friends with kindness and quiet strength. Maude, fiery and outspoken, is always ready with a sharp remark and a loyal heart. And Opal, the free-spirited owner of The Comb Over Salon, brings a whirlwind of chaos, color, and unexpected wisdom wherever she goes. When Opal’s eccentric ventures, like her all-natural “Color Me Crazy” hair dye line, entangle the trio in small-town gossip and comic misadventures, a deeper story unfolds. Their world expands with the arrival of Wilbur, a neglected boy from a troubled home, who finds safety and belonging among the women of Magnolia Manor. As laughter gives way to compassion, Color Me Crazy balances humor and heart in exploring friendship, found family, and the courage to stand up for what’s right. Blending southern wit, small-town charm, and deeply human emotion, this play celebrates the bonds that hold communities together, and the love that transforms broken lives into something beautiful, one act of kindness at a time.”
