Married couple Tim and Flora stand to inherit Aunt Rosamunde's vast fortunate when she dies. But since the old girl doesn't seem to be going anywhere soon, can these two former actors hasten her demise?

The cast includes Molly Turner as Flora, Jan Cleveland as Clarissa, Luke Rahmsdorff-Terry as Tim and Elton Tanega as Emory.

Most recently, his one-act, "The Injured Party," was one of the winners of The British Theatre Challenge 2021, and will have a week's run in London in early 2022.

In between those things, he has had plays produced in Pittsburgh, Memphis, Key West, Long Island, Napa Valley, Seattle, St. Paul, Sacramento, Houston, Dallas, Albuquerque, Owensboro, Leeds and Cornwall (England), Los Angeles, New Jersey and New York City. Locally, he has been honored to have his work presented in Louisville, Evergreen, Durango, Westcliffe and Colorado Springs.
