Daphne Macy’s New Play at Heartland Theatre Festival
Daphne’s play, What Happens in the Waiting Room, explores gender and age-related biases within the workplace. It was selected to the Heartland Theatre’s 2023 10-Minute Festival
"What Happens in the Waiting Room..." is one of 8 plays selected out of 650 submissions for Heartland Theatre’s 2023 10-Minute Play Festival. This year’s festival will focus on the theme “The Waiting Room.”
Daphne’s play explores gender and age-related biases (and downright obnoxious behavior!) within the workplace: When Justin and Dorothy meet in the waiting room before a job interview, Justin learns a lesson about showing his true colors.
Daphne’s play will be directed by Lynda Rettick, and will star Patti Geske, Adam Alexander, and Terry Tinaglia.
