You Don’t Have to Feed A Cello, a 45-minute, large cast, one-act comedy, is a young man’s worst nightmare, his own personal life, mistakes and failures, brought hilariously to the stage in embarrassing moments orchestrated and revealed by a Greek chorus of six nagging mothers in his head (Heuer Publishing/Brooklyn Publishers).

You Sir, Don't Deserve This Sandwich is a large cast ten-minute romp, where a noon day meal gets served up in a fast-paced whirlwind of comic mayhem when an irate waiter, a loud and opinionated chef, and a small gang of singing servers take on a customer's innocent questions and a three-ring circus explodes in a peaceful hotel dining room (ArtAge Publications).
