THE PLAYS
From 2007 to 2009, the plays below were produced in Montreal. Eventually to be released as a collection tentatively titled "Acts of Madness - The Moonchild Productions" Each play will be workshopped one more time (or more than one more, since you can never be edited too much) and made available on Amazon at a later date. However, if you would like to produce one of the below pieces, why not drop by here. I'll make us some tea.
When I Was Jesus

For two weeks in a mental hospital in Jerusalem, Stephen Phelps was the Second Coming of Christ.

Haunted by his time suffering from "Jerusalem Syndrome" and vague recollections of being Jesus, his fragile state of mind begins to unravel as Stephen Phelps comes to terms with his less than blessed life.

Over Coffee

A quiet patron plans her own last stand, while the owner of a café with a secret of his own struggles to find a way to connect.

Four stories. Five lives. Over Coffee is a lyrical, raw, and powerful one act set over the course of an hour in a coffee shop in Montreal on a rainy afternoon. Loosely inspired by T.S. Eliot's "The Waste Land" Over Coffee relentlessly asks what does it mean to be alone in the modern world, and tries to find what it takes to finally come together.
