| Not 2B by George Freek |
| Roles | Minimum Male roles = 3. Minimum Female roles = 3. Minimum total with doubling = 6. Minimum total without doubling = 6. No chorus. Excellent characters. Amanda especially would be a joy of a part - a scatty woman who's raised two wildly ambitious children, kind and soft except when she gets onto the subject of her ex-husband when she becomes positively possessed. |
| Run Time | Around 65 minutes. [Estimated!] |
| Music | None. |
| Style | Two-act play (but on the shorter side of that form). Single domestic set. Contains mild swearing. |
| Synopsis | Amanda worries that her children, Tom and Laura, are too ambitious. Tom sets Laura up with a guy from his company, but the evening takes a few twists that no one was expecting. Luckily it all goes over Amanda's head, and she tells herself she's got a happy ending after all. |
