New Works Festival – One Acts

“Extreme Gridlock” by James Ferguson. A couple struggles to understand why they’re stuck.

James’ plays have been produced throughout the United States and in London and he is the co-writer / director and co-producer of the well-reviewed independent motion picture Happy Holidays.

Candace Perry’s “Meridian Summer” is based on actual events of Freedom Summer, 1964 when James Chaney, Michael Schwerner, and Andy Goodman were killed for working to register African-Americans to vote.
