D'Arc Underground & Other Plays Jack Random

A collection of plays surrounding a theme of faith: A futuristic Joan of Arc leads an underground society to revolt (D'Arc Underground), a cynical writer contests the meaning of life (Fosdick & Muldoon), Hollywood legends struggle to accept the lessons of life in an afterlife waystation on the Boulevard of Broken Dreams (Nighthawks Cafe), the ghost of Geronimo tests the characters of a mixed breed Apache couple (Geronimo's Revenge) and a man with a difficult past stumbles into a bar where he attempts to save a woman who has reached her limits (Queen of the Lonely Hearts). These plays are about individuals finding hope and recovering faith in a world that has constantly and relentlessly beaten them down.
