Lady Diogenes of the Shadow

Three retired ladies candidly discuss their bizarre neighbor over morning coffee. Is she mentally ill but legally sane or vice versa? Who is ultimately responsible for her well-being? An 'in-your-face' 'slice-o-life' highlighting Americana today. Are Americans too passive & indifferent? Ya' think? (Dark comedy overtones) (A short play/teleplay) (Official Selection for Hollywood Stage Script Film Competition 2025) ***Semi-Finalist NY Script Awards 2025 Summer***
