Hello there and welcome to our 8th episode of this 6th Season of Mini Shenanigans. We’re starting to steer towards the end of the series now but don’t worry we still have plenty more great plays to come, starting with this one today.
Our playwright today is New York based Alice Burke who has been writing one act plays for about two years now. She’s had plays performed in nine states in the United States and if that isn’t enough she’s a transcriptionist by day and a volunteer EMT her our local fire department.
Alice’s play is entitled “The Elevator” and when talking about her inspiration Alice says “Although I have never saved anyone from a stuck elevator, I have been stuck in a couple myself. The one that loosely inspired this play was getting stuck in a very crowded elevator for about 40 minutes. There were a couple people who were starting to get jumpy and anxious so it made me think about what a play would look like with this theme — with a twist of course.”
Synopsis:
Lily, Larry and Fed all find themselves stuck in a small, sweaty and smelly lift with the only questions being, how long before the service voice Stella can get them out and will any of them break before then?
