About the Production
The Shoestring Summer Showcase is the culminating performance of the new Shoestring Director's Workshop, where seasoned Shoestring directors, crew leads, and actors mentor emerging artists from Green Valley, Sahuarita, Tucson, and neighboring communities. Through hands-on workshops, participants build skills in directing, performance, and stagecraft, then put those skills into practice by staging a collection of short plays and musicals. This summer showcase celebrates bold ideas, shared storytelling, and the joy of trying something new — filling the summer performance slot with fresh voices, big spirit, and plenty of Shoestring heart!
Three One-Act Plays
Nobody Sleeps
by Guernsey LePelley
A bright and breezy farce about a quirky family and their unique interaction with a burglar. Youngest daughter Daisy offers the burglar a sandwich, and Mother asks for tips for the mystery novel she's writing. You'll be just as surprised as the burglar to find out the reason behind their lack of panic!
Directed by Kara Reynolds

The Price Adapted from a Hans Christian Andersen fairytale
by Don Zolidis
On a frigid winter night, a young mother nurses a sick child, hoping it will live through morning. A stranger appears at her door asking for shelter — but no sooner does she close her eyes, the man and her daughter are gone. The stranger was Death, and he has taken her child. But the Mother does not give up. She races against Death, trying to reach the other shore before he does. What price will she be willing to pay to save her daughter?
Directed by Adelaide Crapo

Any Body for Tea?
by C.B. Gilford
What could be more natural than a group of sweet older ladies wanting to meet the handsome bachelor living across the street? But Dennis O'Finn is a homicide detective, so the pretext needs to be a bit more creative. In this hilarious romp we learn how far some lonely ladies are willing to go for love. Just don't drink the tea!
