Current Projects:

NATALIE IN THE MORNING: 3 hander. A young bubbly 25 year old, ready to go out partying, has a stroke, and wakes up in a coma. Although she doesnt wake up, her ‘spirit’ does, the unconcious part of her. And she tries to understand and then arrange an escape back to conciouness, with two regular characters in the nursing home, where she lies in her coma. Alice the old lady, ex taxi-dancer,ex – whatever – ready to die, and Richard who may or may not be the cousin of Rupert Murdoch, and thus connected (written before all recent troubles). (The characters may only be in Natalie’s head)
