Publisher's Synopsis
Eight Short Plays About Luck Or One Eight-Part Play in Vignettes-- This play, which contain eight short, short one-acts, can be performed separately as individual "scenes," OR it can be performed together as an eight-scene thematically related show. Each of the scenes explores a different kind of "luck" in our lives, touching on topics such as love, crime, misunderstanding, mischief, betrayal, friendship, nostalgia, loyalty, and family. The scenes contain moments of humor and farce as well as moments of poignancy and acceptance, all addressing the role of chance and situational turns of events. Since the characters are introduced thematically, as well as alphabetically, the scenes should be performed in the order in which they are written, an order that leads the audience to a conclusion about luck and destiny-or does it?
