The Weekly Play Cinematic Universe

Starting in the fall of 2024 Muriel Mackie and I began creating short one act plays within a 12-hour time period. We wrote the plays, advertised the plays, found actors, and performed them within that 12-hour period. Typically, we tried to preform one play a week. Currently, the weekly plays take much longer than 12 hours to produce. This is due to the passion and dedication our group puts into writing and performing the plays. This passion has been noticed by our local community, and we were invited to start performing our plays at Cahoots Community Center on a monthly basis. My most recently written play, "Identity Theft: Part 1", Took 12 hours to write and was performed at Cahoots Community Center. The nature of our plays has shifted dramatically but at their core they are still what Muriel and I envisioned. They are a fun, short activity that provides a safe outlet for people to express themselves. These plays mean so much to the people who are involved in them and have taught me so many valuable skills.

Penthywhistle and the Xanthum Machine

This was the very first weekly play it was written primarily by Muriel Mackie with some help from Kaden Hill and I. This one is my personal favorite.

Hippodrome Galaxy

This play was the first play written entirely by me. Muriel had been writing most of them at this point with a little help from me on some of them. That week, she had told me she was planning on canceling the play and that is when I decided to write my own. It's rough around the edges but the people involved had fun.

Boogie Woogie Flu

This is one of the best plays I have written. However, its success hinged entirely on the talent of the actors. The music they played throughout the show was entirely improvised.

Thor Lakkage: Part 1

Thor Lakkage was inspired by a few famous detectives like Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot. This play asks the question, "What if the detective was horrible at their job?".

Thor Lakkage: Part 2

This play was inspired by Greek and Norse mythology. It is not entirely accurate to the myths it is inspired by, but it was fun for the people involved which is always the goal of these plays.

Identity Theft: Part 1

This is the first play that was performed at Cahoots Community Center in Angola Indiana. Flyers were not made for this play.
