Top of PageDesperate for Magic
Synopsis:
In 12 incisive monologues Chambers Stevens has mined the hearts, soul and psyches of today's teenagers.
Notes:
Desperate for Magic originally was written as a one-man show. Dressed in black pants and a black T-shirt, I played all of the characters, male and female. Very few props were used. And there were no costume changes. The transition between scenes were done with lights and I had to convey the character changes using only my body. Since the original production other directors have added actors to play the different characters. Sometimes girls have played the guys' parts and vice versa. Some directors have used a lots of costumes. Some have kept with the original intent. Let your imagination be your guide. -Chambers Stevens.
