A ghost story for adults to be read out loud as entertainment at a Halloween party. Created in the style of the radio plays of the 1930's and 1940's, The Mayor of Cannibal Flats is based on the Alfred E. Packer incident that occurred in southwestern Colorado in the 1880's. Willing guests are asked to pick a character and simply read the dialogue. No acting experience or scenery is necessary, but a willingness to have fun is. The play is short, funny, and will keep the middle of any party from lagging. Dramatic gestures and shrieking are encouraged, but not required. All you and your guests have to do is pick a part: Be a ghost, be the vampire, be the ghoul! Not Halloween yet? You can still have a party. Invite your guests to perform the bonus play, The Mayor At The Tar Pits. Choose a part and howl with The Mayor and her pets. Dramatic gestures and shrieking will come naturally, So will the fun.

To come of age in the 1960's is to have experienced the upheaval resulting from the War in Vietnam and the Movement opposing it. Set against the turmoil, Peace Now! follows the journey taken by Tom Hill, a descendant of the men who fought the mining wars of the 1920's. It also describes the journey of the other students at the Mansion and the Magic Theater, who seek to shape their futures while society is sloughing off truths held inviolate. The questions for Tom and his friends, especially Sandra, are not simple. Are they children or adults, are they patriots or traitors, are they stepping into the future or off the edge of the past? "Peace Now! is the riveting account of a reckoning with the future. An easy read for a not so easy time." - Eva Santiago, author of Salsa
