Michael McKeever is South Florida's most produced and prolific playwright. His plays
have premiered in many of South Florida's top theatres including Florida Stage, New
Theatre, Actors Playhouse, Caldwell Theatre Company, Palm Beach DramaWorks & City
Theatre. McKeever's plays are produced throughout the United States and Europe. His
play 'South Beach Babylon' will open the inaugural season for Zoetic Stage.
McKeever's Briefs is a compilation of the best short plays from Michael McKeever. Meltzer
says about McKeever's Briefs, "This evening is truly a ‘greatest hits' collection for the Elvis
Presley of South Florida theatre. Audiences have laughed, loved and applauded these
gems in ten-minute play festivals throughout the country. They are constantly in demand.
Three of these plays are Heideman Finalists, which is the highest honor for a ten-minute
play presented through The Actors Theatre of Louisville."
Plays included in McKeever's Briefs are:
American Gothic
You know the painting. The man, the woman, the pitchfork. Well, the woman . . . she wants
out.
Craven Tutweiler(The Real Life Story of)
(Heideman Finalist)
Three very different women discuss the remarkable rogue who changed their lives.
With oddly graphic details.
Tina Thompson Tries the Tuba
Tina is trying the tuba ... and, apparently, Tommy Turner. Don't tell her boyfriend Terry
Tarlitz. A terribly ticklish tale of taking chances and trying new trades.
Laura Keene Goes On
(Heideman Finalists)
It's April 1865, and legendary actress Laura Keene is not going to let a little thing like an
assassination stop her from going on. Look out!
Peter, Paul, Mom & Mary
Peter is in for a real shock when he is called home for an emergency, his mother has a
special visitor destined to shake up the neighborhood.
Move on, or Sondheim at Studio 54
Nick is your average married guy, typical in every way. Then he sees a Sondheim show.
A funny, insightful show about the power of a single song.
Splat!
(Heideman Finalists)
Dorothy has just skipped off down the Yellow Brick Road.
Leaving the inhabitants of Munchkin Land to deal with her shattered house and
the apparently dead witch under it. They're not happy. A morality tale with Munchkins.
Meltzer was the Artistic Director of City Theatre in Miami for two years, where he oversaw
and expanded the Summer Shorts Festival, introducing the company's wildly successful
adult-themed undershorts. His New York and South Florida directing credits are extensive.
A Miami native, Meltzer has worked as Head of Theatre at Gulliver Preparatory, and
full time faculty at New World School of the Arts. He received his M.F.A. in Directing from
