The Theatre Guild will present A Festival of Plays 2018 from November 24 to November 26; five short plays that have been tailored to suit the needs of the Guyanese audience.
The plays are The Ex (written and directed by Sheron Cadogan-Taylor), Before Her Parting (written by Mosa Telford and introducing director Colleen Humphrey), Unbreakable (written and directed by Randolph Critchlow), Duenne (written by Paloma Mohamed and directed by Rae Wiltshire) and Political Diversion (written and directed by Sydney Henry).
In The Ex its writer and director said in a press release, “Derek Semple believes he lost the love of his life because of the systemic and deliberate interference of his mother-in-law. He is bitter and determined to win Debra’s love again even though she is now married to someone else. Will he succeed? What will the current husband do? The play raises questions: Should parents interfere in their children’s relationships? Should we take advantage of our male folks when they are vulnerable?”
