Theatrical Shenanigans Play a Day Special - Day 11 - "Survivors" by John David Brown

Welcome to the biggest project we've ever run on Theatrical Shenanigans!

 

In support of the 'Facing February' playwriting challenge (https://www.facebook.com/groups/417549604186094) run by the fabulous Debra A. Cole (https://debraacolescripts.com/), we here at Theatrical Shenanigans will be entertaining you with a different play EVERY DAY through February.

 

Today we have a piece entitled “Survivors", which is a excerpt from a longer piece called "The Songs We Sing At Funerals" (https://newplayexchange.org/script/2047383/the-songs-we-sing-at-funerals) written by John David Brown (https://newplayexchange.org/users/74716/john-david-brown) 

 

John has already joined us on Theatrical Shenanigans twice as a featured playwright:

"Fun" - https://theatricalshenanigans.podbean.com/e/episode-6-fun-melissa-schmitz/

"Rest Ye Merry"- https://theatricalshenanigans.podbean.com/e/one-year-anniversary-special/

Synopsis:

How honest are we allowed to be after someone has died—honest about the deceased, and honest about ourselves? In this scene we see a mother and son-in-law responding to that question in very different ways after he looses his wife and she her daughter.
