In this award-winning comedic tragedietta, Fitch Todd, a dried-out
composer, has lost all motivation to live; his publisher conspires
to pull him out of his doldrums for selfish reasons. Dramatica
Press plays are designed to enhance readability of the stageplay
format by creating a new ergonomic layout and using color to easily
differentiate between character names, dialogue, parentheticals,
and stage directions. Characters FITCH TODD - Fitch is an older
man, a bed-ridden composer, safely in his sixties (his glasses make
him look like Trotsky). MEREDITH TODD - His wife, is a woman in her
late forties or early fifties. EARL BROWNING - His publisher, is a
distinguished looking, silver-haired gentleman (a cross between
Colonel Sanders and Lenin), probably in his early seventies. He is
using this opportunity to 'test the waters' with Meredith.
