 Cary's Chain Store Massacre         Pop Dies In Vegas

Cary's Chain Store Massacre

Synopsis:
Cary, 22, is a lump of a human being. A year ago his world collapsed, when his bookseller mentor closed up shop and disappeared. His life is again upended when the mentor, fifty-something Hal Regan, returns with a proposal: "Wouldn't it be fun to blow up the big Barnes and Noble on Union Square?" Cary goes along reluctantly, becoming enthusiastic for the old man's mad quest when he meets Beatrice, a lovely young B&N employee who wants to help. But when she and Hal turn on each other, Cary must make a choice. Does he want love, or does he want glory? A story of manipulation, possibility and dark humor Carys Chain Store Massacre will captivate audiences and keep them thinking long after they have left the theatre.

Notes:
Carys Chain Store Massacre is the winner of Project Playwright, a contest born out of the necessity to highlight the numerous up and- coming playwrights today.

Pop Dies In Vegas

Synopsis:
Squeaky Bicycle Productions is delighted to announce the world premiere of Pop Dies in Vegas a madcap bloodbath about the perils of life at the top of the charts. Our hero is Casper, a golden-voiced pop idol who has just made the mistake of turning eighteen. Forgotten by his public, Casper faces the ugly choice of fading into obscurity or, worse, growing up. Instead he embarks on a poorly executed attempt to retire a legend by faking his own death. all that stands in his way is common sense and a bathtub full of blood.
