A squirt gun would never be mistaken for a real gun, right? Dive into the thought-provoking world of Water. Gun. Argument and challenge what we choose to believe. A thought provoking and powerful piece in a docu-theatre style.

Christmas in July

by Mrs. Evelyn Merritt

A new year has begun. Last Year has handed off the calendar to the New Year and is ready to hit the beach. The New Year is nervous but ready for the challenge. But something goes terribly wrong.

Summer starts in November, Easter's in February and Christmas is in July! The calendar days are all in a tizzy. The New Year better fix this mess and fix it quick before Father Time gets involved.
