On Saturday, October 5 at 7:30pm, Playwrights @ Work (P@W) will honor one of their own during the fall edition of Shorts & Sweets, their bi-annual production of six ten-minute original plays.

Danny Dubin was a popular and prolific member of the group whose pieces were guaranteed to spark a laugh or bring on a tear. Danny had been a member of Birmingham Village Players (BVP) playwrights' group since 2015. He passed away last April after a long illness and a valiant fight. His presence in their meetings, and on the stage, and in the audience of BVP shows is sorely missed.

Dedicated to Danny's memory, October 5th will bring audience members an entertaining evening of new works by some of P@W's resident writers. As always, this event is free and your thoughts and comments on each piece are encouraged and appreciated during the audience talkback. Following the production, the audience is invited to help itself to some treats while they mingle with the authors and cast members.

The presentations will include:

The sweet story of two families who discover the answer to a long-time mystery in The Photograph by Penelope Calcaterra.

A mother's mortality complicates her desire to restore troubled relations with her son in John Kosik's Till Death Do Us...

In Spirit of Christmas Present by Jacqueline Salter, an unexpected encounter helps a cynical woman discover a little holiday magic.
