She spent the next seven years hiding in plain sight, in the attic space of a shed on her grandmother’s property. Her children having been purchased by their free, white father and given to the care of her grandmother only days after her escape – she alternately joyed and agonized as she listened to them grow up, unaware of her presence. In this play, we hear from “Linda” as she does what she needs to do to survive and persevere so she and her children can be free. The work makes for an outstanding duo, with one performer as Linda and the other performer playing multiple characters.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 12.0pt;\" data-mce-style=\"margin-bottom: 12.0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\" data-mce-style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';\" data-mce-style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';\"\u003eThe Big Decision \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';\" data-mce-style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';\"\u003eby Mike Noland\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFF Duo, Humorous Interp\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\" data-mce-style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eShelley is Joy’s best friend, such a good friend that she’s on a first name basis with Joy’s mom and can walk into their house whenever she likes.

The problem, other than the fact that the plan makes no sense, is that Simon has actually been lured to the past by his evil science nemesis, Dr. Booby, who is determined to finally destroy him. And then the dinosaurs start talking. What follows is parody mashup made of equal parts Jurassic Park, American Idol, and your AP U.S. History class. The whole brouhaha climaxes in a time travel mishap where actors will play two versions of three main characters at the same time. There’s plenty of manic material to make a unique cut perfect for each performer, not to mention a ton of banter and some very memorable characters, like a prep school Velociraptor, a gold-digging T-Rex, a drunken general, and one very stupid President Coolidge. \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eCleverly revised by Clyde here and there for the 2025 edition.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDr. Wilderness\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eDuo or HI starring a loveable, arrogant goof of a wilderness “expert.” Plus: Animal attacks! \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDr. Wilderness is an internationally renowned explorer and TV star - who has yet to go exploring or become a star.
