If You’re Glad I’ll Be Frank:
A one act play – duration appx 30 mins
Originally written as a radio play which can be adapted for stage use.

Underlying the light-hearted story is a satiric comment on man’s servitude to the clock; and a reminder that Time itself is independent of the tick-tock of the clock.
Cast: 11/12 speaking roles
