Two One Acts

           The Mamet Women                                  Chinese Restaurant Syndrome

The Chinese Restaurant Syndrome by Corinne Jacker

The play takes place in the present day, in a small Chinese restaurant on the Near-North side of Chicago.   After an absence of seven years, once ‘best friends’ Susan Lemmerer and Maggie Stewart “reconnect” over cocktails and lunch.  Susan Lemmerer:  Jen Beatty, Maggie Stewart:  Julia Wise, Waiter:  Aimee Wein

The Mamet Women by Frederick Stroppel

The play takes place in the present day, a living room in a home in a suburban development.  Wittily written in the raw, compact style of David Mamet, the negotiations of business and friendship, are diced and sliced with appropriate tongue-in-cheek.   Sally:  Jen Beatty   Polly:  Aimee Wein

It’s manager’s plan for his grand reopening includes the importation of the great English tragedian Junius Brutus Booth–in Richard III.   The only problem is that next door, a troupe of exuberant and talented free black players is set to stage the very same show.

What do you think could possibly happen when The African Company goes head-to-head with the Broadway establishment?
