Tiny Houses
Full-length comedy • No Intermission • 3M, 2W
“[An] irresistible, tartly sweet romantic comedy about finding a home. Marcantel takes on the tiny-house movement and uses it as a vehicle to get inside the heads and hearts of young adults whose dreams and schemes, failings and foibles reveal something about all of us. The perfect, timely comedy … This blueprint is bulletproof.” — The Plain Dealer
Saint Joan
Full-length drama • One Intermission • 4M, 4W
“Worthy of Shaw. Marcantel seems to fear no peril. Like Joan facing those seemingly insurmountable powers, she has thrown herself quite successfully up against Shaw. Her adaptation adds exposition that clarifies what British audiences would have known about 15th-century warfare and politics. While cutting an hour off the original, she retains much of its effective dramaturgy… that humanizes the long-ago characters. And she deftly inserts new (contemporary) dialogue into Shaw’s classical prose.” — Broad Street Review
