Betty’s Summer Vacation

The action of the play takes place in a summer house by the ocean, where a group of ill-assorted people have all bought timeshares. Betty is thoughtful and level-headed, but the other guests include a sex-obsessed surfer dude, a serial killer, a derelict flasher, and an endlessly chattering and emotionally anarchic mother-daughter pair. There is also a mysterious laugh track which seems to be located somewhere in the ceiling of the cottage. In a surprisingly hilarious way, the interactions between the characters become increasingly chaotic, until a final apocalypse is reached.

Seascape

Seascape deals with the sometimes strained relations between two couples who, in this case, meet for the first time on a beach. One of the couples is middle-aged, while the other, younger couple consists of a pair of talking lizards. The play is a mixture of comedy, fantasy, satire, and absurdism.
