Various male and female roles / Melodrama / Simple set
With the Mosley Street Melodramas you'll sigh for the dainty Heroine, cheer for the righteous Hero, and boo and hiss the dastardly Villain in plays with a contemporary twist on the traditional version. These hysterical, audience-participation plays are perfect for community theatres, churches and schools to perform. Especially for fundraisers! These ain't your Gramma's melodramas!
Plays include The Lost Samantha Treasure, The Plague on Madison Avenue, The Mystery of Baby Leah, and Another Kennedy in the White House.
"The Lost Samantha Treasure is nothing if not memorable - and hysterical. Frye has certainly penned a good one this time around, tossing some of the more well-used melodrama jokes out the window in favor of a humor that requires timing and talent. - Sharon Faith Levin, Wichita Old Town Gazette
"...Melodrama fans are happily cheering it again. The Lost Samantha Treasure is terrific fare for the whole family." - Jacqueline Boudreau, Wichita Old Town Gazette
"Like most modern melodrama scripts, Frye's Samantha is pretty much just a vehicle for slapstick silliness, but the dialogue in this one is darned funny...Frye had a blast...the d'enouement...features Saturday Night Fever - style dance numbers. The audience certainly enjoyed watching the show the evening I attended. - Terri Mott, F5 Newspaper

The Mosley Street Melodramas, Volume I
"You are here to unfurl your crime across the satellite skies."
Don DeLillo, Valparaiso
A small two-act play that examines our media culture, exhibitionism, and banality. It feels like we've entered a reality show that never seems to reach its destination. There are parts of this that seem brilliant and parts, unfortunately, that fall a bit flat. I'm a big DeLillo fan and particularly love his fiction. His plays, play I guess, just not as hard. Like one chord, strummed over and over.
One of my best friends saw this when it opened in Cambridge back in 1999. It would be interesting to see it performed, but I'm not sure if seeing it live would make it better. Perhaps, but only because the whole play is about performance. Its power is derived from being performed.
