In Her Big Chance, Lesley, an actress, has just completed a video in which she plays Travis, a career girl who enjoys life, spends a remarkable amount of time topless and shoots a man with a harpoon gun. She tells all, blind to the sinister undertones of her story as well as to her own self delusions and gullibility. A Cream Cracker Under the Settee features Doris, a widow who lives alone. Refusing to relinquish her independence she cleans a high picture rail when her home help is absent. The day goes on; unable to get help, Doris reminisces about her quiet, uneventful life with its joys and sadnesses.Company Duston Players. | |
