Dr. Kenneth Sandora hopes that he will become the most promising and
successful psychotherapist in the field once word gets out about his new
inventionͶa box that can cure mentally ill people through hypnosis. To launch his
new invention, Dr. Sandora has arranged a dinner party in which he has invited a
writer from Psychology Today to observe the effects of the box on four mental
patients: Kevin, who is obsessed with the book, The Lion the Witch an the
Wardrobe; ͞O,͟ an extremely nervous patient who has seen one too many horror
films; Rachel, who is so afraid of open spaces that she can only leave her house by
sending herself through the mail; and Jesse, who has an extreme case of social
anxiety disorder. But when Dr. Sandora͛s plans start to unravel, what ensues is an
evening of sheer madness!

Vn the tradition of "Noises Off" comes a play the theatre doesn't really
need: a play about a bunch of actors putting on a play! The story has to
do with Jacquie and she screwed up actors preparing for their
production of Romeo and Juliet. And along with any bad production
comes the usual problems: people forget lines, the sound and light cues
don't go as programmed, flashers are arrested, turkey legs are used as
lethal devices, etc., etc., etc....you know the drill!

÷
: Script for these plays will be prepared based on the characters as to ensure proper
synchronization of hilarious moments and dialogues.
  
 Addition of sound with the script shall prove to be an excellent assistance
for the plays.
