Seven Plays with a Light Touch

5 + 2

By: Ron Blicq

Here are six one-act dramas and comedies, ranging in length from 10 to 65 minutes, plus a full-length musical based on the collaboration between W. S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan in their mostly happy but sometimes argumentative creation of the D'Oyly Carte Savoy Operettas. Choosing Home--the play that opens the book--won four awards following its first performance in 2005. It was then commissioned to be serialized as a five-part radio play. It has since become one of Blicq's most-produced plays.

One Long Tune

The Life and Music of Lenny Breau

By: Ron Forbes-Roberts

Breau's astonishing virtuosity influenced countless performers, but unfortunately it came at the expense of his personal relationships and happiness. When he was found dead in his apartment building's pool in 1984, police suspected his wife, but no one has ever been charged. Despite Breau's fascinating life story and his musical importance, however, no full-length biography has yet been published - until now. Forbes-Roberts has interviewed more than 200 people, including family members, fellow musicians, and the luthiers who created his instruments, and closely analyzed his recordings. The result is a detailed biography that sheds light on all areas of Breau's fascinating life with a particular emphasis on his evolution as a musician."--Jacket.

Five Plays for Young Actors - 4 Plus 1

By: Ron Blicq

The exciting thing about these plays," says award-winning playwright Ron Blicq, "is that they have great appeal for young actors, which spills over into audience acceptance." All have been performed successfully, some in Britain, some in North America, and some in both. In two plays, a magician teaches four children how to make wands out of Popsicle sticks, which leads to a series of magical adventures that draw the audience into the action. The need to reverse words to undo a command ("Abra Cadabra" becomes "Arba Arbadac") tickles young people's imagination. Blicq has adapted two novels written by Edith Nesbit (including her most popular story The Railway Children) into unique stage adventures that create exhilarating moments for young actors and audiences alike. Even Captain Hook and his Mate Smee appear, in this exciting moment from Adventures with a Psammead. They add a neat twist to the events that four children, who are the main characters in the play, experience after they discover a sand wizard during a holiday beside the sea.
