If A Tree Falls ...

by Jonathan M. Vick

Stage play.
3M. 2W.
One set. Two acts.



Marcus Etheridge stumbles, soap in his eyes, out of his morning shower to find that his usually dull and unoccupied living room is suddenly filled with an audience, staring at him in quiet anticipation. Two actors dramatically step onto their stage for the evening, neither of them sure what the play is about, stunned to find themselves playing inconsequential roles in the dull life of Marcus. They are joined by his Shadow, who silently performs a comedic role that provides the link between the actors and the living. When Marcus discovers where his life made a wrong turn the Actors become part of the show to help him recover the mistakes in his life, and move on to be happy.



A twisted comedy for everyone who has ever wondered where they went wrong, and how to make it right again.
