The Mice Plays

What about the mice? Does anyone ever think about what is important to them? Well, in the three comedic, one-acts, “The Mice Plays,” Issues important to them are explored.

A terrible foe is reported by one of the mice. And, two of the three mice are convinced their lives are in jeopardy from that beast. Finally, in “One Not So Blind Mouse,” the issue of faith, lack there of, and action is explored. The three comedies run approximately 75 minutes.
