A virtual (Zoom) staged reading of the Arthur Miller Classic:
ALL MY SONS introduces us to Joe Keller and Herbert Deever, business partners in a machine shop which made aircraft engine parts during the war. Deever was sent to prison because the firm turned out defective engine parts, causing the deaths of many military pilots. Keller went free and made a lot of money. The twin shadows of this catastrophe and the fact that the young Keller son was reported missing during the way dominate the action. The love affair of Chris Keller and Ann Deever, the bitterness of George Deever returned from the war to find his father in prison and his father’s partner free, are all set in a structure of almost unbearable power. The climax showing the reaction of a son to his guilty father is fitting conclusion to a play electrifying in its intensity!

Suspense Theater with Two Chilling Dramas
The Burning Court: Edward Stevens, an book editor is on the train home, recounting the story of the death of the rich uncle of his neighbor, Mark Despard. Uncle Miles had succumbed to gastroenteritis, which had left him bedridden for days. Although this was considered death from natural causes, a housemaid reported that a woman had been visiting him, who left through a door that had been bricked up for years. As he opens the book he is bringing home to edit, about murders by poison, and it begins with the trial and execution of Marie d'Aubray in 1861. There is a daguerréotype of her attached to the chapter and it is an exact image of his wife, Marie Stevens!
The Devil’s Saint: A man has to prove his love by spending a night in a mysterious bedroom that kills its guests. The story opens in Paris in 1927 at a fancy dress ball in the opera house. Lord Edward and Illona are enjoying themselves--until her uncle arrives. It is then that Lord Edward tells her uncle, Count Stefan Kohari, that they want to get married. The problem is that Edward and Illona have only known each other four days. Count Stefan Kohari isn't pleased. So, in order to "cure" Edward of this infatuation, Count Stephan invites Lord Edward to his chateau. The trick is that he has to stay in the "Tapestry Room." Illona begs him not to do it. Will Lord Edward survive a night in the room, or will he too, die?

Broken Glass by Arthur Miller
BROKEN GLASS: Sylvia Gellberg watches the increasingly violent events in Germany and Eastern Europe unfold through the Summer and Fall of 1938. The vivid pictures and lurid accounts in the newspapers of the day bring to life for Sylvia the traumas and horrors being experienced by those targeted by the facist violence and fearmongering.
Sylvia feels as if she is there. Her inability to influence events become manifest when she develops an inability to walk.
Mortality, bigotry, the dramas of families...set to the backdrop of a world in crisis.

It's a Two of Us Christmas
A Christmas Carol: A Christmas Carol opens on a bleak, cold Christmas Eve in London, seven years after the death of Ebenezer Scrooge's business partner, Jacob Marley. Scrooge, an ageing miser, dislikes Christmas and refuses a dinner invitation from his nephew Fred—the son of Fan, Scrooge's dead sister. He turns away two men who seek a donation from him to provide food and heating for the poor and only grudgingly allows his overworked, underpaid clerk, Bob Cratchit, Christmas Day off with pay to conform to the social custom.
That night Scrooge is visited at home by Marley's ghost, who wanders the Earth entwined by heavy chains and money boxes forged during a lifetime of greed and selfishness. Marley tells Scrooge that he has a single chance to avoid the same fate: he will be visited by three spirits and must listen or be cursed to carry much heavier chains of his own.
